“A lovely but rainy two weeks!”
Sally End is well equipped and in a beautiful remote location, but with Kirkby Stephen and Sedbergh both close enough to pop in for supplies. The garden is safely enclosed (even for beagles!) and has good views, even in the rain. There's good parking space out front, and everything for checking in and out was simple. The rooms are a good size, though I didn't get on with the bed and my husband didn't get on with the sofa! The Aga meant we were never cold, but stopped us eating round the table as ...
Sally End is well equipped and in a beautiful remote location, but with Kirkby Stephen and Sedbergh both close enough to pop in for supplies. The garden is safely enclosed (even for beagles!) and has good views, even in the rain. There's good parking space out front, and everything for checking in and out was simple. The rooms are a good size, though I didn't get on with the bed and my husband didn't get on with the sofa! The Aga meant we were never cold, but stopped us eating round the table as much because it was very hot in August, even with the rain. I'm sure it's delightful when it's cold out, though, and my husband enjoyed cooking on it. Sally End was supplied with clean cloths, cleaning products, and a Henry to easily tidy back up after our stay, oh and our teenager took full use of the WiFi on rainy days - it seemed really fast and sturdy enough to play online games on his phone, so he was happy. We enjoyed the variety of DVDs and books supplied! Overall, a cosy base to stay to explore Cumbria, the Yorkshire Dales, and the Lake District, even in summer storms - with it's thick walls and the aga, we almost forgot the winds and rain outside!
