We have stayed at Willow Cottage for numerous years, visiting in the autumn and spring. We can think of no better place which can offer such a warm friendly welcome and five star comforts. The two bedrooms with en suite are delightfully decorated with personal touches to enhance the decor. Chris and Roy have recently built a new garden room... More

This was my first stay at Willow Cottage bed and breakfast. I can safely say 'the first of what will be many'. Even if the Lake District wasn't outside the door you'd still have plenty to see and talk about. Roy and Chris welcome you as if you were part of the family. The detail and thought in the accomodation... More
