Lovely stay!
Really good stay! The shepherd’s hut was lovely and cosy. There is no TV in there which wasn’t a problem for us but just something to be aware of. The breakfast was excellent, as were the staff.

Location was great, and our room was nicely furnished with a beautiful view. The bathroom was very well appointed. I didn't like that we had to reserve a specific time for breakfast.

2 night break in Grasmere
We booked this place due to the great rating on this site. Wonderful staff. Lovely location. Beautiful room. We booked the stargazer suite and even though the skies did not co-operate the view was still stunning. Breakfast was delicious. There is a Co-op shop 3 doors down and a great restaurant 2 doors down. Would happily stay again!
