I booked this house 2 years ago for a special birthday, we stayed here for a week. We also had our two children partners and a dog. Thomas was always very helpful and friendly and the house spotless and very comfortable.We had an afternoon party here and had over 30 people and the house did not seem overcrowded as we used the garden too.I booked this particular house as it was near to my family, but equally easy for The Lake District and surrounding areas.Would definiately book this again i have just recommended a friend toenquire. Hope she books it means i get to stay.
