“We had such a much needed very last minute getaway with our pets.”
We took our dog and cat with us which was great as we struggle to find properties that accept cats but the owners of Jacky Garth Cottage welcomed both. No sign of pets being in the property previously, the cottage was lovely and warm on arrival, clean and comfortable, described perfectly on Sykes website. This little cottage was ideal for us, right at the foot of Blencathra and plenty of other walks a stones throw away. Two good pubs around the corner, the cottage being right in the heart of a lovely little village, 5 min drive to Keswick or a lovely hours walk along the old rail track. We stayed a week, booked and arrived on the same day and we could have easily stayed another week. We loved it that much. We will absolutely return to Jacky Garth cottage in the future, kitchen fully equipped with everything you could possibly need, safe back garden for the dog and the wood burner made nights in snug. Lots of little windows for the cat to peek out. I say little as the door ways are small so watch your head if your tall like us lol, it does advise you of this on the Sykes website though. Adds to the character of the cottage. We can’t fault anything about our stay, the accommodation and location was exactly what we were looking for. Vicky was patient and helpful in finding us exactly what we wanted last minute. First time using Sykes and will definitely use again.
