“Lovely house and lovely area.”
We arrived on the Monday we had that sigh of relief you have when you arrive at a strange location you’ve booked online, when you drive through the local area. Town of Penrith was on the door step and the villlage the house is located is somewhere you can walk through at night without fear. Virtually crime free.
The house is located next to the river which gave a nice relaxing sound when you sleep. No need for Alexa to play relaxing sounds!
The house is beautiful. We brought everything we need from tea towels to Salt and pepper but there is no need as the owners had stocked the house with all the essentials, even a welcome basket. Kitchen is a huge cooking and social area with a kitchen island and massive fridge/freezer. To our delight, we forgot to bring ice however the fridge dispenser had an ice option ( took the heat off me!). Living room comfy with electric fire place and the bedrooms where well set up with plenty of places for guests. The garden is fully sealed in for the dog to run around with no worries.
We had a brilliant week at Mill end house. Top tip, try the crown pub in the village. Michael the landlord is a great character and does a mixture of English and Thai food.
My only negative ( and this negative is only small) the pillows were a little bulky and hard. We would book again and bring those with us.
We are really pleased you loved Mill End, we really aim to set the highest standards we can.
I’m sorry you found our pillows too firm. We use high quality medium pillows to try and suit as many people as possible.
I’m glad you felt safe in the area too. I’ve lived in the village all my life and like you say I can’t recall any incidents at all which would make me feel unsafe day or night.
Thanks again for your kind words and we both hope to see you again
