“Immediately impressed with the property, facilities and kitchen equipment.”

Very comfortable accommodation and will definitely stay at Mellbreak again. Perfect location for hiking in The Langdales plus a great book collection for this amateur photographer!

“A really nice and comfortable place to stay, great facilities and really well equipped.”

An ideal position for exploring the Langdale valley or if you’re crazy, riding the ‘Fred Whitton Challenge’ as we did! Definitely recommend this cottage to anyone.

“A great cottage in an excellent location.”

Our main suggestion for improvement would be to please get better pillows - they were all extremely thin and unsupportive. Also please provide info on recycling - we ended up taking ours home with us Apart from that the cottage had everything we needed and we had a lovely week, thanks. Especially good cooking equipment and also good facilities for drying wet clothes - really useful.
