Reviews
"We unfortunately had to cut our stay short however this place is amazing. This little cottage had everything you would need for a relaxing get away. The location was perfect for our needs. Whilst it was located up a country lane away from the busy outside world it was within easy reach of Penrith, Keswick and Ullswater. We were able to walk into Greystoke Village enjoying a lovely meal in the pub and enjoyed a cycle around the little villages. The bed was very comfortable, the bath great to soak your weary bones after a day on the fells and the WiFi good for planning trips around the area. The owners were lovely especially as we had to leave at such short notice."
"I booked into Pippas Cottage for a get away to visit family with my other half. The cottage is a perfect little base for exploring the lakes as well as the rest of Cumbria, set in quiet, picturesque surroundings. The cottage was spotlessly clean and well finished with everything you could possibly need for a stay away. The owners are incredibly friendly and helpful (and the chickens are lovely to watch through the windows!). There was a bottle of Prosecco and fresh milk in the fridge as well as locally produced toffees and fudge in the cupboard - very much appreciated! In short, I would recommend this cottage to anybody looking for the perfect spot for a relaxing holiday and will be booking my next stay soon! Thanks for a lovely week, Kate"
"We travelled from Northern Ireland and stayed at Pippa's Cottage for 3 nights short break with our 1 year old baby. Owner Daniel and family very welcoming and provided travel cot, highchair and baby bath which was much appreciated. Cottage very clean and finished to a high standard. Milk, prosecco and local toffee provided which was a nice touch. Quiet surroundings and we enjoyed watching the resident 5 chickens. Great base to explore the Lake District. Would love to stay again sometime. Highly recommend."
"Beautiful cottage , perfect for a relaxing break for two. Very handy off the M6 which meant that even although we were only staying for two nights we left Glasgow and just over two hours later we were in the cottage relaxing and looking out at the panoramic peaceful views. Cottage tastefully decorated, well equipped and warm. Friendly owner lives onsite and popped round to see that all was OK for us. Very kind gifts of local fudge and prosecco left for us. Easy drive or, better still, a walk over the fields to the local village of Greystoke which has a friendly inn, with bar food and a local shop. From Pippa's Cottage we were easily able to visit the local towns of Keswick, Grasmere, Pooley Bridge, Ambleside and Windermere; even though we were only there for two nights. Penrith, the Rheged centre and Carlisle also close by. As well as the outdoor pursuits of the area there are plenty of local cafes, restaurants and bars and we were very impressed that there are several restored cinemas in the area too. We hope to make Pippa's Cottage a regular retreat from the pressures of life. Would highly recommend."
