Upper Crumble

We had the most wonderful holiday at Upper Crumble. The setting is magical and we loved waking up every morning to bird song and silence! The location is perfect for exploring some of the most unspoilt parts of the Lakes and is outside the busyness of the main tourist trail. Sarah and Stewart are such welcoming, thoughtful and hospitable hosts - with the most gorgeous garden. The cottage was completely immaculate, with the added treat of the hot tub bubbling away in the private courtyard - an ideal place for star gazing! All in all this is one of the best places we've stayed.

Upper Crumble is a superb place to stay. We enjoyed peaceful sunny morning coffees sat out at the side and glorious sunny evenings in the hot tub - perfect after a long walk. Towards the end of our week when the weather turned we retreated inside to the warmth of the wood burner. Heavenly! Sarah and Stewart are perfect hosts who had time to answer any questions and left us some lovely (and delicious) surprise welcome gifts - thank you! If you're looking for a calming countryside retreat but with plenty to keep you occupied close by, then this is the place for you.

This is a really comfortable cottage, beautifully fitted out and very peaceful. A great base for exploring the south Lakes. And the hot tub is a lovely bonus.

Cottage was beautiful and immaculate. The bed was so comfy. The hot tub was fab, very secluded and private. Lovely views from cottage.

An absolutely stunning cottage, beautifully restored with great attention to detail. The hot tub was the 'icing on the cake' ! Sarah and Stewart were very welcoming from the start and we had a lovely relaxing long weekend. Cartmel is within walking distance with 2 Michelin starred restaurants and lovely pubs. There are lovely local walks with beautiful views. We had a wonderful stay here and will be returning. Highly recommend.
