The position of the cottage is its best feature. It is a great base for this part of the Lakes. There is plenty of room and it was very cosy. We had a great time

The location of the property is superb and it was great to be able to get to the beach so easily. It was good to be able to have an open fire. We loved the area and the cottage is well placed for touring the local area. We liked the character of the cottage.

This was a lovely cottage with panoramic views. Ideal for a quiet retreat away from the demands of today's busy life.

Pleasantly situated, but not too isolated. Nice, clean beach. Very obliging owners.
Mr Birch, Wigan, Greater Manchester
Jun 2005
The owners were very friendly and welcoming, even calling round to see if we needed more coal for the fire. Everything was there that you needed, it was like living in someone elses house, which was lovely and relaxing. We were able to bring the cat. But most of all, the position of the cottage is perfect. Right on the beach, beaufiful views and the kids loved the sand dunes and shell hunting.
