“It's the sheer convenience of the location that first strikes you, a real advantage in this part of Cumbria. Beyond that, there's a distinct sense of comfort, amplified by a thoughtfully provided fireplace and a notably good bath. This feels less like a stay and more like a familiar return, a place that hits the right notes.”
