Fauld Retreat Reviews

James
We really enjoyed our time here. The place is beautifully finished and super comfy, with everything you might need. Just a heads up, the hot tub needs quite a few logs to warm up, so best to start early to avoid disappointment!
Mark
Really enjoyed the stay! The garden was beautiful, kids and dog had a blast. Quiet spot but close enough to everything. Would come back!
Emma
We had an amazing stay! The place was spotless and really well kept, couldn't find any faults. The BBQ hut was a real highlight, especially since even the rainy evenings didn't stop us from enjoying a good cookout. The hot tub was such a bonus after walking around the lakes all day - super relaxing. We'd definitely recommend it and hope to come back again someday!
Amira
The location was spot on for exploring the Lake Districtand we got there pretty quickly from our last-minute booking. The owner was really helpful and easy to reach, which made everything so much smoother. The cottage itself was cosyand the jacuzzi was a lovely bonus after long days out. We'd definitely stay again!
Emily
We had a lovely week here! The outdoor space was perfect for our dogs to roam freely. Even in the rain, the hot tub was a highlight, especially with cows watching us - quite amusing! The owners were super helpfuland our shopping delivery arrived without any fuss. It's a great spot for a peaceful getaway with a bit of fun thrown in!
Laura
We had a fantastic stay! The house was beautifully decorated, modernand you could tell they paid attention to every detail. The hot tub was a real highlight, though it took us a bit to figure out how to use it properly. The location was so peaceful, with charming little towns nearby. The kids and dogs adored the outdoor space. We definitely want to return someday and recommend the Crown and Thistle in Rockcliffe for a lovely meal!
Alex
The hot tub and BBQ hut made our stay really special for the kids!
