5 of 5 Review on Home Away
“Wonderful property in a stunning location”
We thoroughly enjoyed our week in Charcoal House, which has to be the very best holiday home we have ever stayed in.
Everything about the house was perfect, so much attention to detail and as for the beds – so comfortable.
The location is so peaceful with fine walks nearby. Our highlight being the hike up the Old Man of Coniston and beyond.
We sampled many fine pubs all of which are a short drive away.
A thoroughly enjoyable week in the lakes, we will definitely be back to Charcoal House – Nick Baldwin, Uckfield, East Sussex

“I would just like to say thank you for everything you arranged for us.
Our stay was fantastic. All of our family and guests for the week were really impressed with cottage and it’s tranquil feeling.
Should this be the standard of your other properties we will certainly be returning to one of them” – Stuart Ireland

“Hidden Gem of Cark”
We stayed in this super cottage for two weeks and really enjoyed everything it has to offer.
Lovely and clean, really good quality beds and bedding so had a excellent nights sleep and always felt well rested.
Everything you need in a cottage for the whole of your stay was provided and the kitchen is really spacious so very enjoyable to cook those lovely meals you never seem to get the time to do in your busy life.
The fact that it is pet friendly made it even better for us and it is so well situated to visit so many places, and lovely to have a warm and welcoming cottage to come back to after a busy day exploring.
Will definitely be back as even after two weeks still didn’t manage to see everything we wanted – Pam Jenkins, St. Helens
