Comment: We spent a fantastic week at Sunnyside Cottage. It is a lovely, comfortable and clean cottage. The enclosed garden was great for our dog. Lots of local walks.
We highly recommend this cottage and area, and will be returning in the future.

Comment: Very impressed with the cottage, it was nice to arrive and the cottage be warm with a light on to greet us.
The fuel shed was an eye opener, having been used to arriving places and there not being enough coal to light the fire, even when the heating was solid fuel !
The dogs made full use of the paddock, and everybody had a good time.
Thank you very much, we will be back.

Comment: The cottage is very cosy and the rooms are a very
good size. Everything is provided for a comfortable
holiday and I would certainly recommend Sunnyside
as a place to stay. There are lots of excellent walks
within close proximity and the co-op in
Hawkeshead provides the basics for your stay. The
milkman delivers daily and offers all the essentials.
Look no further than the Tower Bank Arms (200
yards walk) for a place to relax and eat in the
evenings. The ambience, beers, food and
welcoming log fire are superb!

Comment: We love the cottage, and although we were out and about every day , we ate in , thanks to the delivery of Cumbrian Foods , and the food is really delicious
and satisfying. On the day that it rained all day ,we went for a long drive ,calling at places such as Ambleside, Buttermere,Keswick ,Applethwaite,
Grasmere,Windermere,Bowness , finally , ferry to Sawry , and the scenery was magnificent.We have also been in a ferry along Windermere, done some shopping in Ambleside and Windermere, and one day , we actually visited
Morecombe Bay , and had a really good laugh at the shifting sands , but please do be very careful , as it could be dangerous.
There are plenty of nice local walks , and as we walked by the Lakeside , we were met by a long line of Mother Duck with her ducklings , and a very old duck at the end . It is lovely to see all the farm animals , and the little lambs and calves.
We always spend a day in Hawkeshead , and usually purchase a few items from the shops. Most enjoyable
