Pippas cottage was a lovely place to stay, the couple who owned it were always on hand if needed.

Pippas cottage was a lovely place to stay, the couple who owned it were always on hand if needed. The cottage was very clean and the bed was very comfortable. You are close to the lake district and other places of interest. and a lovely area for walking. I would highly recommend Pippas cottage, perfect for a rest and will hopefully return.

We had a fabulous 3 day stay at Pippas recently and can honestly say it's one of the best accommodations I have ever stayed in. Everything was thought about thoroughly, from the extremely comfortable bed, excellent quality bed linen, high end furniture, to the very large hamper that awaited us on arrival. The place itself was spotless and everything we needed was there. The fire was a fabulous touch and the location itself was very quiet and private. Lisa was on hand and was very welcoming. I would highly recommend staying here and can't wait to stay again! Thanks for a fantastic holiday
