It was above our expectation and we had a nice holiday.
Before we arrived we had a doubt what types property it is? Is it spacious enough to accommodate us. But when we have arrived it was impressive. Location was also perfect to explore whole lake district. It was just foot of the Old man of Coniston. Me and my son has gone highest pick.
Die Ausstattung des Hauses und die geschmackvolle Einrichtung hat uns sehr gefallen. Die Adresse ist über google maps nicht zu finden. Schöner Aufenthalt.
