The Cottage was lovely an cosy. I had read reviews saying it was cold but I found it very warm and comfortable. There was plenty of space given the fact it is a small cottage - very clean, lovely bathroom. I feel there could have been a mirror in the bedroom, and given the fact it is a decent size an upgrade to a king size would be a bonus. The douRead moreble bed was very squeaky. Tea, coffee and biscuits provided - a nice touch - thank you. Good location for the walks we wanted. Thank you! Hide

Bedroom is light & bed comfortable, could do with more furniture for clothes storage. Kitchen is small, not much storage/work space. Lounge/diner is small, not much daylight, chair & sofa are very low, not great for backs! Stairs are quite steep, not recommended for anyone with any mobility issues. Bus travel was very useful, right on the doorstep!

The cottage is very well equipped and the facilities/equipment were excellent. It was spotlessly clean and cosy. It's in the perfect location for us given our love of the Borrowdale Valley. We parked the car up on arrival and it didn't move till we left. Plenty of walks from the door and a very good bus service.

The apartment is in an ideal spot in Rosthwaite. You can get the bus just outside so it would be ideal for a car free holiday. It was very clean, compact, comfortable and very well equipped. I imagine the shared garden would be a great asset in warmer months. Although there are other apartments in the building, we didnt hear any noise. The allocateRead mored parking for 3 would involve being blocked in if all the accommodation was full. It was fine for the two cars using it when we were there. Hide

We have stayed in this complex before and the location is amazing, the kitchen well stocked and there is some suitable parking nearby. The main complaint from me was the cold, it was a particularly cold weekend in January and there is no way of controlling the heating in the accommodation, you just have to wait for the heating to kick in at the speRead morecified times and start to warm the rooms. I was so incredibly cold, so make sure to bring a blanket and possibly a little heater. Hide

Well equiped, comfortable and in a great location right on the Cumbria Way in the heart of Borrowdale.. Buses every half hour up and down the valley from outside the building. There's even a bus to Buttermere via Honister Pass and to Catbells. Great if you don't want to drive for the duration The only issue is poor Wifi in main part of flat.

I have stayed here before and was very pleased to return. It's a shame the shop below the flat is now closed though. I love the location. There are fabulous walks from the door and a very good regular bus service to all areas of the Lakes. I came by public transport and could have easily stayed longer and filled many more days.

Cracking location for exploring Borrowdale. Well equipped, warm and surprisingly quite considering there are multiple lets in the building. Only negative is while there is a space big enough for three cars to park in the designated area for 3 lets it is very hard to park 3 cars without blocking at least one in.
