This is a quiet, relaxing location on the edge of a small rural village but the cottage now (January 2023) has ultra fast broadband. There is very little through traffic in the village and the small lane next to the cottage only leads to one house further down the lane.
There are many walks in the area and before guests arrive we send a great deal of information about walks and the area. Dick and Kath are keen walkers and can also offer advice if needed on walks on the fells and on the roads, which are quiet and safe.
Kirkoswald is 4 miles away and has a village shop (which also has coffee and sandwiches), doctors surgery and 2 pubs. The Fetherston Arms in Kirkoswald in 2012 won Pub Of The Season, in 2014 won Pub Of The Year and was a finalist for the Solway CAMRA Award in 2015.
Kirkoswald won an award in the 2016 Britain in Bloom competition.
