Nice spacious house, recently renovated to a high standard. Good, quiet location with some nice walks close by, including Bigland Barrow where there are some great views. House was very clean on arrival. Wendy (who lives about half a mile away) was a very good host and even rang up when there was a power cut in the local area to make sure we were OK. Good for exploring the southern lakes.
