Laura and Michael, Birmingham. May 2010

An ideal weekend. Great cabin with everything you could possibly need. We enjoyed some excellent trips into Ambleside and Windermere, even stopping by Grasmere for the famous gingerbread. The chilly morning coffees on the balcony will be greatly missed. It will be a shame to leave.

We had a great time (again) this year. The cabin’s location is very central, peaceful and not overlooked. We had some wonderful walks through breathtaking scenery and did a steamer trip to discover the other end of Windermere.
