Endearing 17th Century detached cottage. Near Ullswater, Pooley Bridge, Lowther, Penrith Wifi

The house was everything we needed, opposite a pub and the swimming pool. The villagers were very friendly and helpfull, especially in the swimming pool. Unfortunately the internet stopped working on the third day but the rental company responded out of hours to help sort it out..

The house was located in Askham where we were going to a wedding. It was super clean and so convenient. Near a pub where other friends were staying and just around the corner from the town store. Very private but central to everything. We would definitely stay there again. Was absolutely perfect!

Very good. A very pleasant stay for me and my kids. An upside down house. Perhaps nice to have a place to sit outside.

My friends and I were so pleased with the cottage and such a lovely village in the Lake District. Great communication and very helpful. Very handy to have parking right out side the house and great Wi-Fi during our stay. Was such a cosy home to stay in the for the weekend after lots of walking. Thanks so much for hosting us :)

Lovely, stay, in a lovely property. Easy to get around there to visit places. Thoroughly recommend.

This is a lovely, traditional barn type house. Very homely and traditional, some would say old fashioned but charming. We were three generations and used it as a base to tour the Lakes. Lots of lovely walks. The two pubs in the village are great and The Queens Head offers a tasting menu alongside light bites. We ate at the other pub in the village twice - traiditional pub grub. We did lots of lovely walks to Lowther Castle and up into the Fells just out of the village. The house could do with another loo but that is just personal preference! The house has all the basic amenities. One word of warning, Askham really doesn't have any service. The key safe wouldn't work so had to call the key holder and couldn't. Luckily I borrowed someone's wifi!!

Clean and well equipped cottage, nice base for a break in the lakes, or as for us, weekend accommodation for a wedding. Rooms are compact but perfectly fine - smaller single room may be more suitable for children rather than adults for a longer stay. Upstairs living area very nice to relax in and kitchen very well equipped for meals and food storage - lovely big fridge & freezer. Host was great, and check in very easy. Only small confusion with the balancing payment, as we'd thought this would be taken automatically, but it was easy to sort. Many thanks

This cottage was as per the listing although parking is on the street outside the door. The area is very quiet despite being virtually opposite a pub. 20 minutes drive to Ulleswater or about an hour to Windermere so perfect for exploring.

Stayed with a few friends - decent pubs in the village, good walks from the location around Ullswater

Property in good location opposite pub with 5* food. Well appointed and comfortable.
