Ramshead Cottage Reviews

Alison
Lovely little cottage. Very well equipped, comfortable and clean. Nice touches like local maps and information, recommendations for local restaurants etc everything was well explained and the owners were super attentive when we had a couple of questions. The best thing for us was the location in terms of access to both the lakes and the dales. You could get to so many beautiful places within 30 minutes and we were able to pack our 3 days with lots of walks and stunning drives .
