We think you'll love
- Feeling very relaxed, even with young children. This is an old house with the inevitable bumps and scrapes in any case
- The peace, walks, nature and wildlife
- The railway line - spot a puffer - and the river
You should know
- Because of the pheasants there are rules about where you can walk
- None of the showers are walk-in, all are over a bath
- No mobile signal and WiFi is slow but steady
What a lovely treat waiting at the bottom of the steep track. Such a cosy,
warm, welcoming house with the Rayburn humming away, a huge
L-shaped kitchen, dining and sitting room with views out to the gorgeous
countryside. Sheep and pheasants, the little railway line behind and then
the wide river. Just lovely.

Sampson's Cave is a great location for a family holiday. It is hidden away (only one fisherman drove past in all the time we were there) in a beautiful location in the Eden Valley (so much quieter than the other side of the M6). The property (seemingly two converted railway workers houses) is spacious and airy and provides plenty of space for the family (there were 9). Lazonby, with its pub and railway station is a reasonable 40 minute walk away, with a good coop and a great mobile fish & chip value (Thu 5-7 at the auction market).
