We had a lovely week staying in this gorgeous, quirky cottage.

We had a lovely week staying in this gorgeous, quirky cottage. It had everything we needed, surrounded by stunning views. The farm is remote, but we found it in low cloud and rain with the supplied instructions (despite a 1 in 4 hill), and Asda delivered our shopping there with no problem. The unique lighting arrangements in the cottage was entertaining and it took us awhile to work out which switch was for which light. It truly is a lovely place, and well located for walks, and drives to Coniston, Muncaster Castle and Furness Abbey to name a few great spots to visit. I can't recommend it highly enough.
