“We have had a fabulous week in this beautifully furnished and equipped cottage – without doubt the best place we have ever stayed! Wish we could stay longer!”
“It’s difficult to describe our week in Shepherd’s View as other than perfect. Wonderful accommodation – comfortable and so well equipped.”
“The cottage is stunning and the cleanliness is of a very high standard. Views from the cottage are amazing as are sunsets from the kitchen window. A well deserved 5 star gold award.”
“This is the best Premier Cottage we have stayed in. Excellent in every way. It has been a lovely week exploring new places and returning to favourite spots. A most lovely peaceful part of Cumbria.”
“Five Stars and Gold Award fully justified! Everything we could possibly want. So lucky – 6 days of Spring dry weather, 6 days of great walking. High Cup Nick worth the effort.”
“A beautifully decorated barn with idyllic views. Thank you for the most amazing tranquil stay! Carole and Simon are clearly incredibly attentive and have thought about quite literally everything you’d need for the perfect getaway.”
Explore Eden Valley – there are many things to do!
Great day out at Dalemain Mansion & Historic Gardens on Sunday for a plant fair. Many events are put on here during the year including the famous marmalade festival, but well worth a visit anyway. Beautiful gardens, interesting house and also home to the famous blue poppy. Close to Ullswater and 20 minutes drive from Shepherds View!
Dramatic scenery in the Eden valley walking up Nine Standards from Kirkby Stephen.
Added bonus seeing wild orchids along the way. Highly recommend.
