The Hayloft, Cumrew House

We so enjoyed our Hayloft stay - super spacious, well equipped, stunning setting - a delight. Thank you Kirsty for the chard (for supper), carrots (for picnic lunches) and the welcome chocolate brownies - delicious! On our fell walks we had good butterfly sightings especially the Wall Brown. Visiting Vindolanda was awe inspiring - to find such a large excavation site and award winning museum gave us so much to see. A lovely first visit to this underpopulated part of Cumbria. Hope to be back!

We had a wonderful time at Cumrew House. The house and grounds are beautiful, Kirsty & Andrew very welcoming hosts, and a wonderful area to explore. The cream tea on arrival was thoughtful & delicious. The tennis court was a treat, allowing happy abysmal tennis in complete privacy! The friendly cat and dog, Pele and Juno, were a hit with our young son. A special, relaxing place to stay.

We had such a lovely holiday in this beautiful cottage in wonderful landscape. We had not been to this area before and less touristy than the Lakes and Dales. If you like peace, walking and relaxation this is the place to go. Very friendly owners and their lovely cats and dog made it very homely. Plenty of nice places to eat as well nearby.

We enjoyed a lovely stay in this wonderful corner of the Lake District. Kirsty was very welcoming, and made us feel very at home. The Hayloft is spacious and comfortable, with everything needed for a relaxing holiday. The tennis court and walled garden were an added bonus. The whole family, including small children and dog, benefitted from the space. We very much hope to return.

The Hayloft was really very special: interesting, comfortable, well-equipped and peaceful. Juno was a top highlight - always delighted to see us. Other highlights included being able to pick fresh vegetables every day, the lovely gardens, tennis court, great hosts and wonderful walks all around. Hadrian's Wall and Long Meg and her Daughters would be my 'must-do' recommendations.
