Sandbed Cottage oozes character and charm, with antique furniture and original features it is a delightful mix of old and new, with exposed beams, stone work and flagged floor. The spacious open plan sitting area is comfortably furnished with a homely feel and a warming log burner, Wi-Fi, digital TV, DVD.

“The cottage was 4*, cleanliness was exceptional , very comfortable and warm.”
The hosts, Steve & Karen were friendly and very helpful without being invasive. The cottage was outstanding and the area was stunning.
This is an incredible property. It is beautiful inside, rustic, warm (we stayed in mid-winter and with the fire lit the lounge was roasting!), clean, everything you could possibly need. On the outside are views of the fells on all sides and walks straight out the front door. If you want somewhere which feels like you're utterly away from it all this is it. I could not fault it in any way - perfect. (PS attention to detail was lovely - we stayed over Christmas and there was a tree, lights, christmas crackers, and a foil turkey roasting tray...)
It is a wonderful environment with ducks and hens and ideal for bird watching with feeders filled daily and a gallery to view them from. The owners were knowledgable, kind, helpful but not intrusive.
Many different birds and the occasional red squirrel right outside your window, thanks to the owners Karen and Steve’s feeders. Steve came to our rescue on our last day and changed the wheel of our car after a puncture! Can’t praise them enough. 5 stars!
