We spent a week here as a family of 3 adults and 2 dogs. The cottage was well maintained and comfortable. Lots of lovely touches. Everything had been thought about. Provision of items we had not expected: shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, washing tablets, books, games etc. Fully enclosed garden which our 2 labradors made the most of. We also used the enclosed dog exercise area a couple of times but after days walking in the beautiful Eden valley and beyond they were too tired and quite happy to sleep unless the peacocks came visiting then there was a need to bark at the window! The wood fired hot tub was great after lots of walking. It heated up quickly and there was everything provided to light it. The hot tub is located in a fenced area just outside of the enclosed garden. Ideally located to travel to areas of the Lake District and enjoy this wonderful part of England. Hosts were very friendly and approachable and gave us all the information we needed. Thank you for a lovely week. We hope to return.

Wonderfull cottage set on a working farm in the beautiful Eden valley. Very clean, safe garden for our dogs. Wonderful facilities with a dog day care facilitiy onsite( BOOKABLE ) . Wonderful greeting from owner on our arrival and an unexpected little gift of stay left in cottage as a memento . THANK YOU. Rooms excellently furnished and maintained. Cottage within walking distance of Armathwaite village with its walks along the banks of the River Eden and overlooking at points views of the beautiful Eden Valley. Great base for driving to Carlise or the Northern Lakes. We rate this cottage 10/10 for any dog owners. A fenced off paddock area for your pets excerise safetyis a real bonus. THE SURROUDING COUNTRYSIDE IS BEAUTIFUL AND WELL WORTH VISITING as our the 2 local inns in Armathwaite. Thank you to owner for allow us our COTTAGE. will be rebooking again without doubt next year( IF AVAILABLE) a better cottage setting I have yet to find. A totally peaceful and relaxing venue for a quiet break.
