Lake District Self Catering cottage, The Shippen, Crosslands, sleeps 2

Beautiful place to stay with lovely hosts
We recently had a great holiday at The Shippen and would recommend this cottage. Crosslands is an idyllic, rural hamlet and there are great walks from the doorstep as well as lovely country pubs 5-10 minutes drive away. We were greeted with fresh flowers and scones on the dining table upon arrival and Graham and Gaynor were really welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. The Shippen is great inside and was very clean, it also has a nice private courtyard area where you can sit outside and eat. Overall a fantastic place to stay.

Fabulous cosy cottage
Booked here for the Christmas week for wife and myself on arrival we were greeted by a friendly lady called Brenda who helps out and house sits who took us in to the shipped. It's laid out to a high standard with lots of little extras the fire was ready to be life only we were a little early so only had to put a match to it. Much bigger then I thought with a beautiful spiral stairs going down to a little hall and bedroom with was truly good standard top quality bedding and furniture also off to another door step down to the bathroom door wow beautiful bathroom. Just love the way this place has used all the old latch doors and a few beams too stunning x. We've never gone away over Christmas before but truly glad we booked here so peaceful day n night. Brenda what a true star very friendly and helpful thank you Brenda miss you already true star xx Sorry we didn't get to meet owners but your cottage is beautiful and all the little extras and to meet ozzey n the cats gorgeous x thank you for the cake we truly it, with our afternoon cuppa x we wish you the very best for the new year xx Chris and Dee xxx

Idyllic
Just spent a lovely week in this charming little cottage in Crosslands, 5 miles south of Hawkshead, in the Lake District. The hosts, Graham and Gaynor Jarvis made us feel really welcome and the home baked scones left for us were delicious. Lovely walks straight out the door and onto the fells were amazing, our dog loved it too. Nice wood burner for chilly evenings made the cottage so cosy, can't wait to go back.
