“Absolutely gorgeous little cottage which suited us perfectly.”

Had everything we needed to cook our own meals but a super pub up the road for food . Totally enclosed garden for the escape artist dog.

Had everything we needed to cook our own meals but a super pub up the road for food . Totally enclosed garden for the escape artist dog. Took firewood and coal but despite the time of year, the cottage was warm enough without lighting a fire. Really enjoyed our stay and will hopefully be back

“The stairs is very steep, I think you have explain online.”

“We had a lovely stay in the cottage and would definitely return.”

The only thing which was not perfect was the 'doggy' smell in the lounge which I suspect was from the rug. But all in all a minor issue and addressed with lots of air freshener

Mr Pulford September 2021

“Had a great week here but was disappointed with the garden building g as it was really dirty.”

Full of cobwebs and a rug on the floor that I wouldn’t even let my dog walk on. Really not the standard I expected having used your services in the past. Also need to make dog owners aware that the garden is enclosed but not secure enough for an adventurous dog. Could easily be fixed with some proper fencing.

“Could do with a bigger double bed.”

Lovely location. Clean tidy and well equipped cottage. Parking a bit tricky!

Mrs Cole August 2021

“Lovely cottage with lovely garden great size cottage perfect for us and our 2 teenager children loved it.”

The only thing would improve is the kitchen due to the wooden units never felt thoroughly clean.

“Good job weather wasnt very good day before we left so we didn't go out early whilst we were getting ready to go out a bag was left outside by the cleaners asking us to leave by 9.”

00 if we had been out all day it would have been a shock so late. As our contract was with heart of the lakes they should make guests aware before arriving. I stay in many cottages and this is the first time this has happened even during the current situation.

Mrs Castell July 2021

“Very comfortable, well equipped, clean cottage with a secure garden for our dog.”

Plenty of walks from the door. Ullswater Lake is 5minutes away and Glenridding is very quaint but gets very busy with walkers especially at the weekend.

“Had a great time the cottage was perfect for our needs.”

Only improvements could be on two issues; sykes information was that we had to leave the cottage at 10 AM on departure day but the owner informed us, by a note, that we had to vacate by 9AM in order to deep clean. Whilst we understand this need, consistency of approach would be appreciated to reduce the slight tension at the end of the holiday about when we were supposed to vacate the premise. The cottage says that waste for recycling was not collected but had to be taken to recycling centres, a minor inconveniencebut whilst we were there we saw that the local authority did collect recycling and wondered why this wasn't done from the cottage (ie if it was a cost issue). Even so I would have preferred to have recycling collected. As it happened we only made one trip to a recycling centre and on the day of the departure, the cleaner, a very pleasant lady called Beth volunteered to dispose of our recycling.

“Lovely cottage in an excellent location.”

Everything is there that you need and the garden is lovely to sit in on sunny days. We will definitely return.

“We have a dog and this cottage has no downstairs carpeting which is ideal and the first thing we look for.”

Bleaberry cottage is well situated for a walk to the pub, a real fire and wifi also, everything we need and cosy for two.

About the location

PENRITH

Keswick 17 miles; Carlisle 20 miles.

The bustling market town of Penrith, once the capital of Cumbria, enjoys a central position between the Lake District and North Pennines and is ideally placed for taking in all that the region has to offer. Renowned for its wealth of specialist shops, the sandstone buildings of Penrith hide intriguing yards, lanes and alleyways, with a myriad of attractive cottages, gardens and little shops. With a wide choice of excellent pubs, hotels, restaurants and entertainment, Penrith also offers a museum, and Millennium Trails round the historic city streets. Within easy reach of the town is Rheged – an innovative visitor centre with shops, restaurants, exhibitions and a giant cinema screen showing educational and informative films. Brougham Castle (The Windsor of the North), Long Meg and her daughters (the 3rd largest stone circle in England) and the historic city of Carlisle are all a short drive away, as is the stunning scenery of both the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales.
