Absolutely lovely holiday cottage in a very pleasant village.
Absolutely lovely holiday cottage in a very pleasant village. We stayed for 1 week and found that the cottage is very comfortable with high-quality furnishings. The log burner was cosy after long walks in the beautiful Lakeland countryside.The village of Askham is pretty, with two decent pubs and a shop within a few minutes' walk. We liked how dog friendly it is too! Would happily stay here again.

A beautifully done conversion with first class fixtures and fittings, you can absolutely feel the love and care that has been lavished on the property. The beds are wonderfully comfortable, the bathrooms are top notch, no complaints at all.

Thank you Scott, Helen and family, the place is an absolute credit to you.
