When I booked this for the four of us, two couples, it wasn't expensive so I didn't expect anything flash.. However, as we left the A66, we past some lovely countryside and on arrival, we were all pretty impressed with the cottage. Knock is a lovely little picturesque village and the views from the garden were breathtaking. There are no pubs or shops in the village but Dufton and Long Murton were not too far away and a pleasant walk, both have a welcoming pub. The cottage itself was spacious, clean and tidy and comfortable for the four of us. Appleby is also worth a visit, we walked in and got a taxi back, all in all, a very nice long weekend and very much value for money!
