Dunkeld Cottage - close to the Lake District!

The property smelled musty - possibly from peevious dog guests? Otherwise a nice spot to sray, once you get off the very busy A66

We have just returned from a 5 day stay at this lovely property. The accommodation was exactly as advertised and had a lovely welcoming and cosy feeling. The area is very quiet and we were able to switch off and relax. We would 100% return and saty here again next time we are in the area.

The four of us had a wonderful stay in Dunkeld Cottage. The stone cottage was lovely - though the two tall men had to learn to duck at the kitchen door! The living spaces and bedrooms were very comfortable and the kitchen was fantastic, with top-quality Siemens stove top and oven, a good dishwasher and much appreciated washer and dryer. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans and utensils to make cooking easy. There was salt, pepper, sugar and tea. The shower had good water pressure and plenty of hot water. Penrith had a wide choice of large supermarkets, from Morrisons to Aldi, and there was also a village store 2 houses down with well stocked shelves and a very helpful shopkeeper. The host gave useful hints for traveling before our stay. We enjoyed the garden during a brief moment of sun! On our last evening we walked down to the Eden River and followed it along through cow pastures and footpathsWe enjoyed walking around Kirkby Thore and also found the location to be a good one for trips to Derwentwater and Ullswater sights - don't miss Aira Force waterfall!
