"A stunning, comfortable, well equipped cottage that was fully accessible without feeling “medicalised”"

10.0

An exceptional cottage - places rarely live up to the pictures but the Old Piggery was the opposite. It was even nicer and more comfortable than we had expected. My mum is mobility impaired so the fully accessible downstairs bedroom and bathroom were perfect, whilst still retaining a luxury feel. The cottage was very well equipped - which was great because the weather was terrible during our stay, so we spent a lot of time indoors! Angela was responsive and helpful in relation to any questions we had and we even got to watch a farmer and his dog bring the sheep in in the neighbouring field!

Very little - although real rather than plastic glasses would have been nicer.

"Excellent"

8.0

We booked our stay pretty last-minute through booking.com. Payment was processed right away, but then we received a slightly ambiguous email stating they were waiting for the property owner to confirm. We were absolutely delighted when Angela called to personally confirm the booking—such a nice touch! Getting to The Old Piggery was super easy—just 15 minutes from the M6. While the initial directions sent via text were a bit unclear, a quick chat sorted everything out, and we found the place without any trouble. The interior of the cottage is absolutely charming! It’s warm, inviting, and full of character, with a delightful mix of colours, rustic furniture, and exposed timbers that give it that perfect country cottage vibe. The kitchen is well-equipped, the Wi-Fi worked reliably, and you can tell the owners have gone the extra mile to make the property accessible for independent wheelchair users. The only small challenge was the loose gravel around the farm, but that didn’t take away from the overall experience. It was such a peaceful and relaxing stay, surrounded by the sights and sounds of sheep and cows nearby. Truly a special retreat!

The bathroom doors could do with catches or locks, necessary sharing with friends and colleagues. Also, the bedroom door separating the lounge would be better if it wasn't sliding. More privacy should be considered as

"Great countryside getaway for the family"

9.0

Very thoughtfully renovated, clean, great location close to Kendal but very rural at the same time, kitchen well equipped, overall a great experience.

The list of facilities contains toiletries which for me means shower gel, shampoo etc. therefore I didn’t bring my own. But there are no such toiletries at this apartment, which is fine if one knows upfront. Otherwise it’s an extra round to the supermarket.

"Very disappointing."

3.0

The size and layout of the property was lovely. The bathrooms were amazing, wonderful shower. Would have been nice to have a fan during this hot weather. The sheep in the field.

Not suitable for wheelchair users because of the gravel drive. Being disabled it was painful to keep getting out of the car to open and close the gates. For the price, I expected better. There was no mophead, just the bucket and the stick, and unfortunately needed to use one. Expected to take your rubbish and to strip the beds and put the bedding and towels in the downstairs bathroom. No shampoo, conditioner or shower gel, and no milk. Water left in kettle, half empty containers ie salt, hand gel, etc. Every time a new guest arrives, it should be like they are the first person there. Upstairs bed felt like sleeping on rocks and the downstairs one was too high to get into. My friend had to sleep in a chair.

"Great place."

9.0

Disabled access was great. All facilities to a really high standard

Upstairs bedroom lets in the light so bring eye patches and also as it’s open plan you can hear anything happening downstairs so just bring earplugs and you will be fine.

The property is incredible, in a secluded area just off a main road surrounded by fields with sheep etc. still very quiet and also convenient for shopping.
