  • "Lovely property with all the mod cons you could need for a home from home experience."

    Great to not have to pack lots of things for the dogs with bowls, towels and bedding provided. Lovely to have lots of blankets to protect the furniture as well as to snuggle up under on an evening. Lisa, the host made contact before we travelled and great to have direct contact should there had been any issues. Thoroughly enjoyed the week.

    The cottage was very clean, very comfortable, extremely well equipped, warm, plenty of hot water. It was in an excellent location to access the Pennines, Yorkshire Dales and Lakes. Lisa was very helpful and sorted out a problem with the bed arrangement after Sykes had failed to communicate properly.

    Everything you could think of was provided, even down to dog baskets, blankets and bowls. A good base to explore from, with a handy pub next door. Description of how to find the property could have been a little clearer ie “on the corner of …” and would have liked a separate recycling bin in the kitchen. However I’m really trying to find anything that could have been improved because it has been the best doggy friendly and not doggy smelly holiday place we’ve ever stayed in!

  • "Wonderful cottage in a lovely location, hope to be back soon!"

    I booked Garth End for a girls week away with friends & dogs to celebrate my birthday & I wasn't disappointed, it is one of the nicest properties I've stayed in by a long mile!!! Everything was beautifully presented, furniture & facilities were quality & it was immaculately clean. There was everything we needed for our stay ... and more!! We always take loads of dog blankets, but there was a plentiful supply, plus lovely human blankets too!! The information folder has to be one of the best thought out & really helpful & the welcome gifts were beautiful & so thoughtful, thank you Lisa! Although we were lucky with the weather, having the door leading into the utility meant it was easy to get rid of coats, boots & wipe paws. The kitchen was well equipped, no shortage of crockery, glasses, cutlery or pans. I forgot tea & coffee but there was a plentiful supply, so we didn't miss out on our morning cuppa & it was nice having the choice of eating round the island or at the dining table. Good TV, audio & wifi provision with excellent option of streaming services. The flexibility of bedroom set up meant everyone had their own bed & the bathrooms were lovely with good showers & plenty of hot water. The garden was fully enclosed, private & dog friendly ... the snowdrops were beautiful and it was lovely to see the daffs coming out. The patio furniture wasn't out (being winter) but will be a lovely area to sit out in warmer weather! Didn't get chance to try the pub as opening times were limited due to the time of year, but the menu looked really nice & everyone we met from the village had time to stop & have a chat, it was nice to witness the genuine sense of community! Having the park with its kids playground, bmx bike track and field where you can give the dogs a run was a definite bonus. Thank you Lisa for a wonderful birthday celebration in a beautiful property.

    Part of what sold the property to us was the fact that it was advertised as having a pub next door. Unfortunately the pub was closed during our week stay. We’d planned to eat breakfast here and have dinner there too. It did have an impact because we had to travel in two / three vehicles to get food including takeaways and it was my 50th birthday celebration. I appreciate we hired the cottage not the pub, but it was advertised with a pub next door. Overall we still had a great time, the pub would have made it fantastic!!

The property

Appleby-in-Westmorland 4 miles.

A spectacular property situated within the setting of the Cumbrian countryside and tucked away just a short distance from the bustling market town of Appleby-in-Westmorland.

This spacious accommodation has been renovated to a superb standard and is suited for a group of families and friends seeking to explore the area’s wealth of attractions and activities.

Once dinner is served, regroup with your loved ones at the dining table, enjoying upcycled furnishings ensuring a seamless blend of tradition and contemporary, as you tuck into your home-cooked meal.

Next to here, you will find the utility room, complete with a washing machine so that you can wash and dry your clothes after an action-packed day exploring.

The clever blend of traditional and contemporary is continued into the sitting room, where plush furnishings surround a woodburning stove, offering a gentle warmth as you tune into the 32inch Smart TV with Freeplay or ask Alexa to play your favourite radio station of an evening.

The snug room offers an alternative space in which to unwind of an evening and boasts a superb selection of books, games and a 50inch 4k Smart TV with Freeplay, streaming player with 1000s of available channels and DVD player.

To the outside of the property, an elegant dining table offers an opportunity for alfresco dining, pop open a bottle of fizz and toast to a wonderful holiday with your loved ones, whilst admiring the stunning setting.

For days where you do not feel like cooking, why not head to the New Crown Inn next door, which has an excellent reputation, offering pre-booked Cooked Breakfasts, Picnics and Afternoon Teas, as well as walk-in Lunches, Evening Meals and Takeaways.

Alternatively, venture to the market town of Appleby-in-Westmorland, where you will find a superb selection of pubs and eateries, serving locally produced food.

The town, famous for its horse fair is filled with a great deal of interest and charm; immerse yourself in the local history by spending time exploring the well-preserved Norman Castle with the fine medieval Church of St. Lawrence.

For train enthusiasts, head to the station to catch a glimpse of one of the old steam trains that wend their way along the famous Settle-Carlisle railway line.

Penrith 14 miles.

The historic town of Appleby-in-Westmorland lies in a loop of the River Eden and is overlooked by the North Pennines, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with the Lake District Fells showing on the western horizon. Set at the heart of the lush Eden Valley and steeped in history, this is one of the loveliest towns in the north of England and was originally the county town of Westmorland. Appleby is nestled between the Lakes and Yorkshire Dales, so guests can enjoy the contrasting scenery of these two National Parks, plus numerous walking and cycling opportunities as well as the fantastic leisure centre in the town. Appleby has a wonderful selection of quality independent shops, cafes and delicatessens selling locally produced food and crafts. The picturesque street of Boroughgate, with some interesting old buildings, is at the heart of the town and links the well-preserved Norman Castle with the fine medieval Church of St. Lawrence. Appleby is a major stop on the Settle-Carlisle Railway, which is one of the most beautiful railway journeys in Britain, and still today many of the old steam trains wend their way along this line and over the historic and awe-inspiring Ribblehead viaduct. With the delightful Ullswater and the magnificent Lake District within easy reach, this is an ideal holiday location.
