A special place to spend a wonderful Christmas.
We enjoyed the Aga, the log fire, meals around the table, the Red Lion (the nearest pub just one mile away) and the Christmas tree. Thank you – The Wright family, London

From Email:-
We had a great time – it is the first time my husband and I had been to the Lakes and we loved it.
The house was extremely comfortable and furnished/decorated to a very good standard. I fell in love with the Aga, having never cooked on one before and loved the fact that most of the house seemed to benefit from the heat generated. My husband is dreading the inevitable request!
We will almost certainly be making another trip to the area, probably at a similar time because we enjoyed the beautiful autumn colours so much and the added benefit of very few people around, although it was far from deserted.
We also spent far more time and money than was good for us in Booth’s (the North West’s equivalent to Waitrose-but much better) – Stephanie Locke

A wonderful base to explore the southern lakes and surrounding villages.
Good bracing walks and breath-taking autumn scenery – Monika, Nick, & Norman Jones, South Wales

Thank you for enabling us all to have such a wonderful time at Charcoal House.
The house was amazing and just what we needed, my wife loved the AGA!
It’s so difficult to find somewhere that has 4 large double rooms, enough to accommodate 4 couples.
We all loved the house and the area and are looking at booking again next September – Graham Still

“An ideal base for exploring the Lake District”
A very well appointed rental property that offered a real home from home.
Very tastefully furnished with everything provided that might be needed.
Extremely quiet.
Ideally located for access to main routes for exploring the Lake District. Good local facilities and easy access to Ulverston for shopping requirements. Owner very attentive. Highly recommended – Phil Burrell, Wlithshire

“Amazing 5 Star”
Wow, what an amazing place this is, the surrounding area one is of the most beautiful parts ok the UK.
The accomodation was perfect in every sense. Plentiful in space throughout, decorated in a very tasteful way with every luxury from broadband internet, smart TV, roll top bath and fantastic beds, through to Nespresso coffee machine, Le creuset kitchenware and the warming aga which I was dreading but it is so easy to use, with thoughtful instructions, I now want one in my kitchen at home (the aga is bigger than my kitchen so that isn’t happening!).
There’s plenty of books, DVDs and local information to keep you entertained, a great covered balcony with table and chairs from the upstairs living room and a beautiful view. There is even an umbrella, washing machine and separate dryer and a huge fridge freezer.
Our family, in particular my German in-laws, loved everything about it and really hope to come back, thank you so much – Robert

We found fairyland! – it’s the Lake District.
Enchanting, peaceful and breathtakingly beautiful.
Charcoal house was a most delightful place to stay in whilst we explored the area……we’ll be back!! – The Frampton family, Dorset

“Excellent!”
We have just spent the last seven days in this delightful cottage.
From the moment we arrived all six of us fell in love with it and by the end of the stay I was imagining myself living there on a permanent basis.
The open plan kitchen was a dream and all the appliances and crockery were of a high standard.
There was no fighting for the best bedroom as each one was as beautiful as the next.
The location was great as there were so many places we found to explore, on foot and by car.
We had been advised that the mobile phone coverage was poor but Vodafone coverage in the cottage was strong and no complaints at all from anyone on the wifi which worked 100% of the time.
We cannot recommend this cottage highly enough and I must say dealing with Simon has been an absolute pleasure. His one aim was ensure we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Charcoal Cottage, thank you Simon – Jan Muir, Hampshire
