Absolutely perfect. Clean comfortable and everything you could possibly need is available. Host is super friendly and the welcome basket is a lovely touch. Hot tub clean and constant 40 degree temperature. Garden is a suntrap and very private. Parking to the side of the property. I definitely recommend ???? Lots to see and do within a short drive and an easy walk into Ulverston. ????
