Nice clean, quiet, comfortable, warm and very well presented property in an area with good access to other areas of the lakes.. All ammenties were well thought out and well presented. The kitchen had all you needed to prepare a meal and the welcome basket was a nice touch to get us started after a long drive. The local pub was friendly but the food was no better (or worse) than any other pub, though slightly more expensive as we had expected being the only pub in the village. We ate there a couple of times, as it is the only pub in Lindale itself and, the only other place to aquire provisions in the village walking in distance is the small post office store but, at just under 5 miles away, Grange Over Sands has two other pubs and a bigger selection of shops. They also have a few great take aways ("Fish Over Chips" was great). The stairs in the property were a little worrying with an OAP with us but, weren't a problem as we were aware of this, although the property wouldn't be suitable for someone with very limited mobility. Off road parking is provided (and appreciated in the Lakes) but was a minor issue due to the turning area. Nice small enclosed garden area with chairs and table. Although we were aware the cottage allowed dogs and understood the need for the covers on the sofas, continually having to adjust them was a bit of a pain. However, even the able bodied should be careful on the entrance step. Due to the placing of the door frame on the top step its very narrow and easy to miss your footing.These are picky and minor things and all in all its hard to find criticism for the property, we would highly recommend this property as a great base for visiting all the Lake District has to offer.
