We had a wonderful stay here with our dog. The place was very clean and tidy and we found it cosy with the fire on during the rain. Would definitely consider returning if we come back near Keswick area!

Beautiful cottage set on a breathtaking farm in the Northern Fells of the Lake District, with Skiddaw directly behind and walking trails accessible right from the farm. Keswick is only about 10 minutes away. Matthew is a wonderful host - thank you for sharing this special place with others!

I have just spent a wonderful 2 nights in the cottage on the farm and what a beautiful place it is! It is on a working farm, but so clean almost immaculate and so cosy! I loved it and would recommend to anyone. Just a little advisory, takes the essentials with you like shower gel, bread and butter etc, and you will have a perfect stay x

Amazing little cottage on a beautiful working farm. Lots of animals, and machinery around but lovely and quiet in the evenings. Close enough to places like Keswick but far enough away to feel like you are away from everything. Local pub a couple of miles away so easy enough to walk to and a great walking route up Skiddaw straight from the cottage

This was a beautiful place, nicely equipped and we were lucky enough to see a lamb being born. It is a working farm and the host was very accommodating. It was a nice overall experience!

A wonderful , rural escape . Matthew met us as we arrived and had been excellent with communication after booking . The cottage is beautifully presented and spotlessly clean in an ideal location for exploring the north lakes or spending time in the fields . We will definitely be returning !

This is our third stay at the host's tranquil, cosy and very lovely cottage - which has beautiful surroundings and fantastic views. It's also a great base to discover Bassenthwaite and Keswick, and the wider areas in the Lake District. The host/Matt and his family are really friendly and helpful, as well. Thank you so much.

Brilliant short stay

Matthew's place was ideal for my husband and our lads who stayed for two nights to extend a holiday. It's a lovely place off the beaten track and Matthew is very helpful and accommodating.
