Our second stay at the beautiful poppy cottage and was even more magical than the first. We stayed over the Christmas period, upon arrival we were welcomed to Christmas decorations and even a tree it was beautiful. We even had fresh eggs and a bottle of vino :) poppy enjoyed her treats too. Although the weather was miserable it was a perfect excuse to cosy up information of the fire. I have fallen in love with this beautiful cottage. Thank you again for a fantastic stay and a fantastic Christmas. Just waiting to plan our next visit.

Poppy Cottage is really lovely and the owners have thought of everything that you could possibly need during your stay.The location is very good for exploring the Lakes with some excellent walks from the village.
On arrival we found welcome gifts of wine, chocolates and new-laid eggs which were much appreciated.The towels were big and fluffy and the bed very comfortable. The stairs were a little steep which would prove a challenge for the elderly or infirmed, but luckily we're not at that stage yet !
For food shopping Cockermouth is nearest, having a Sainsbury and an Aldi.
The cottage has a beautiful garden with a summerhouse, an outhouse with washing machine, tumble dryer and freezer. The views are lovely and if you're lucky enough to have good weather you can sit outside and enjoy the afternoon sunshine.
We took our dog with us and found the cottage very dog friendly. Two bowls were out ready for our dog on a doggy place-mat.
To sum up I would say Poppy Cottage is one of the best and well equipped cottages I have stayed in and I look forwards to visiting again soon.

This is a beautiful cottage and is as everything inside that you could ever wish for. The gardens are very dog friendly and my two springer spaniels Tilly and Martha spent many an hour playing and lying in the sun.
The leaflets in the cottage for things to do are the best we have ever come across in a cottage. Big thanks to Lynne and Mark the owners. We will definitely be returning.

Absolutely fantastic little cottage. One of the best well equipped, cosy, clean , comfortable cottages I have ever stayed in. Mark and Lynne have a real gem there and should be very proud of what they have. Seriously could not fault one thing!!! Beautiful garden and friendly neighbours. Thank you for making our honeymoon perfect.

Poppy Cottage is a real credit to its owners. Attention to detail was astounding. The cottage has a real cosy and welcoming atmosphere to it. The whole cottage was really well equipped. All those things you usually forget, were there. Everything was very clean and well maintained. With 2 adults and a 2 year old we all felt truly spoilt. Stair gates and high chair etc. were all provided. My son (Harry) called it 'Harry's house' for the week. He loved the garden. We will definitely be recommending 'Poppy Cottage' to everyone!!!!

One of the best cottages we have stayed in, the furniture was very comfortable and cosy. A lot of thought has gone into providing all the necessary items, plus lots more luxuries that we have not found in any other cottage Not only was there a bottle of wine, but also chocolates, eggs, milk, jam, tea, coffee. There was also boxes of tissues in every room, bathroom luxuries such as flannels, body lotion, soap wash and many more.
