"Mouse hole cottage is set in beautiful grounds with everything you need especially if you have dogs a lot of thought has gone into making your stay as nice as it could be we found it ideal for touring the area."
The cottage is very comfortable and a lovely welcome gift along with tea coffee and milk
Nick the owner or one of his staff is usually on call if required but not intrusive. The paddocks for exercising the dogs are a real bonus I would definitely recommend either of the property’s for a stay in Cumbria
And am hoping to possibly return again myself.

"Holiday cottage was lovely and we had a nice stay."
The only disappointment was that when I booked it said we would have shared access to a hot tub, although when got there we only one of the other cottages had access. We booked the holiday with the understanding we could use the hot tub.

"Had a lovely stay, everyone very friendly."
Property had everything needed and was great for our dogs. The enclosed field area was good to let dogs run off some energy. Good location for lovely riverside and woodland walks. You'd need to use your car too though to take advantage of surroundings.

"This was a perfect place for us to stay with our dogs."
The cottage is part of a barn conversion on a working fam. It was extremely clean and well appointed, very comfortable beds and high standard towels and linen. The host was very friendly and we truly felt like every detail had been thought about for us to enjoy our stay. There is ample secure grounds for the dogs to run in as well as your own secure garden. We would definitely visit again.

"This place was immaculate and well maintained, we were made to feel welcome the minute we arrived."
With corona virus in mind the owner had taken steps to make sure the property was safe for our use. We used doggies and moggies on site which are brilliant so if you have a dog etc and you want to visit any no-dog attractions they are good at accommodating such events. The cottage is very roomy and warm and full of creature comforts. We enjoyed ourselves so much we will be looking at returning in the not to distant future.

"The house was for the most part really good but I would like to raise just a couple of things."
A couple of utensils would be really good to add to the kitchen drawer. A cheese slice and an egg skillet.
My only real criticism would be that the couch cushions were covered in dog hairs which wasn't great.
We did Really appreciate the milk, wine and biscuits that met us on our arrival and the gift of the pen and torch was a really nice touch.
Thank you very much Mr Rickets!!!

"The cottage was fully equipped with everything we needed including washing powder for the machine."
Milk, tea,coffee, biscuits were waiting for us so no immediate dash to the shops. Tissues, toiletries etc. were a welcome addition along with information on the area and a good store of books. Our furry friend was also well catered for with the first truly dog proof garden I have come across since using Sykes cottages. There was also an enclosed exercise field plus walks across the owners fields. We used the day boarding kennels whilst we had a day in Carlisle and Maisie who hadn't been in kennels before loved it. Everyone in the village was very friendly and both pubs were dog friendly. A brilliant base for the lakes, Northumberland and even Scotland.
