Previous visitors' comments about Cape Landings:

It's hard to find anything to dislike. The cottage was clean, warm and cosy. A real little jem. We slept like logs. My husband and I used the cottage as a base to visit many local attractions. We were lucky enough for there to be a Victorian Fayre in Ulverston the weekend we were there, all of the market stall holders and shop owners dressed up and there was a lovely atmosphere. We had lots of long walks with our dog and we loved the stunning scenery.

Ideal base to get to the best parts of the Lake District. Cape Landing made a very cosy and peaceful base to return to in the evening.
Mr Davies, Liverpool, October 2012

Cape Landings was wonderful, the location could not be better with the tarn just a few yards from the door. The cottage was beautifully furnished and really felt 'home from home'. There was absolutely everything you might need from a corkscrew to plenty of maps and walking books. We would highly recommend and can't wait to go back again.
Miss Dixon, Stratford-upon-Avon, June 2012

A peaceful location with good food available at local pubs. Bigger towns within easy reach by car.
