Everything was great, though pet owners need to be aware that the back garden is not solely accessible by this property.

Beautiful cottage in a quiet country village. Perfect for two of us and our two dogs for a quiet break away. It is cosy, comfortable and in a great location to access other local villages and attractions. Would highly recommend.

1 Townhead cottage was brilliant a real home from home. Plenty room for the 3 of us and our dog all rooms very spacious. Everything was in cottage that you require for a quality stay short or long. Kirkby Thore has post office/shop which is well stocked and has all your dailly needs. Penrith was 10 mins away with supermarkets, Mcdonalds and would recommended Lotus Garden chinese takeaway too. Ideal location for walks, Pooley Bridge, Kirby Stephen and Lake District. Will 100% recommend to friends and family and would definitely return

Cosy cottage
We had a nice 3 nights in the cottage. The location was good, it was peaceful and the summer house in the garden was a sunny spot to sit with a drink. The neighbours were friendly and helpful with suggestions about places to visit and recycling etc. The only downside was that the bedding was rather shabby and stained ( although clean) as were the towels, renewal needed!
