Lovely place right in the town centre close to everything. Spacious bathroom with a handy WC shower room downstairs. Comfy beds and well equipped kitchen. Nice front lounge, only negative was the TV as we could only get 1 channel! Highly recommended.

My brothers and I stayed for 2 nights. We were extremely pleased with the accommodation. It was immaculately clean, comfortable and had all of the facilities we needed. As it is a slate cottage it was quiet and no noise could be heard from next door. The fact that it is literally only yards from numerous bars and restaurants is a big plus. Thank you also for the bottle of prosecco we received on arrival, which was a nice touch.

Five of us stayed here for the weekend. Beautiful cottage very clean, with an extremely large bathroom. We did notice there were no spare toilet rolls, so we bought some. After we returned home, we received a message apologising for this, stating that a pack had been left on the doorstep. The cottage is very close to the centre, so everything is within walking distance. Buses to other towns ran every 20 minutes and were reasonably priced, and we had a lovely day sightseeing. We didnt use the back yard but had a quick look. It could do with a jet wash, but I can imagine it being a nice area to sit out with a glass of wine in the summer. The cottage comes with a permit to park outside, but the couple who recently bought next door had two cars, one of which was a large 4x4 parked directly outside, which blocked the light a little. We did speak to them when leaving to ask generally about permits not as a complaint and were told they dont get issued permits anymore, only historic ones are renewed. We didnt bring a car, so it wasnt an issue for us, but I can imagine that if someone did, and the property advertises a permit to park on the road outside, they would expect to be able to do so. Overall, our experience of the property was a 1010, and we would highly recommend staying here.

Ideal location, well equipped kitchen and clean bathrooms. Very very clean throughout. Beds very comfy. We were out most of the day every day but the house was a perfect base for adventures.

Loved the property. There were no visitors permit so my husband got a parking ticket as he thought the one he did have was a visitor.
Lovely cottage in the perfect location. Really well presented with a wonderful bathroom perfect for a good soak after a day on the fells.
