    Breathtaking location, with the walk up to Cat Bells just to the back of the property (it takes about an hour's walk to see one of the great views of the Lake District). Lovely hostess, great breakfast. No TV but the wifi gives you fast high fibre broadband. We really enjoyed the peaceful setting and also (coming from central London) being on a working farm. The scenery on all sides is truly stunning.
