"Perfect for our week in the Lake District."
We used the cottage as a base for playing golf in The Eden Valley golf tournament and visiting some of the sites in the area.
Poppy Cottage provided all we required and a very friendly welcome from Roger and Val.

"We always like looking for little cottage type properties when we go away and that's what we got!"
!!
Details and pictures online are very accurate.
Poppy cottage has everything you need, feels cosy and was very clean.
Very easy to find and in a great location for visiting surrounding well known places.
The garden is private and spacious with bird feeders where we had a woodpecker visit everyday.
We also had lambs in the field to the side which were lovely to watch.
Roger popped round a couple of times and was very friendly and helpful.
They made sure we had everything we needed as well as changes in towels, bedding etc.
Even though we were amongst 3 cottages we never heard anything.
Fantastic outbuilding with washer, dryer, airers, irons etc, but also big freezers where you can store food which was very helpful.
Overall we loved this 14 night stay and would definitely recommend and will be booking again if visiting that area.
Thanks guys, don't change anything, it was perfect x
Thank you so much for the lovely review.we are so glad the cottage ticked all the right boxes! It was a pleasure to meet you both and look forward to seeing you again in the future

"Poppy cottage was nice and clean and comfortable."
It is well placed to view the Lakes and other attractions nearby. We had bad weather but the cosiness of the cottage made up for that. There is everything you need in the cottage and is great for a couple to get away from cityscapes. There are wonderful views outside the window and many birds flock to the bird feeder outside the kitchen window. It's a great place to unwind. Val and Roger are nice and informative. They don't intrude on your stay if you want your privacy but are at hand if you need anything.

"Poppy Cottage is great."
Situated just off the A66 giving good access to Ulswater, Penrith, Keswick & the Northern Fells. There is a very well equipped kitchen. On arrival, there was tea, coffee, biscuits, milk & juice waiting, a practical & thoughtful touch from the owners. Cosy lounge with a log burner that came set up ready for a nights fire. There was storage space for my bike. The owners live next door & were helpful on arrival. Excellent value, will stay again.

Penrith/Keswick buses were willing to stop only 200yds from cottage making car free days easy. Seeing all those Herdwick sheep and lambs out of lounge and bedroom windows was a delight. A wonderful country retreat that we would love to return to. Many thanks to Val and Roger.

"Fabulous Cottage, contained everything we needed for our stay."
Easy links to everywhere on the lakes, but despite being close to a A66 there was no noticeable noise. Owners were very welcoming and friendly. Spent hours watching the bird feeders which were very well used by the local wildlife. Would certainly recommend to anyone wanting a good base to explore the Lake District.

The owners Roger and Val were very friendly and helpful and the welcome goodies were very much appreciated. It is in a great location with walks on the doorstep and only a short drive away from Keswick, Ulswater Lake, Pooley Bridge etc. This is the best cottage we have stayed in and would highly recommend.
