    “Only door to property has a catch that doesn't work.”

    We had to jamb cardboard into it to open it from the inside. An easy fix, buy a new handle. Its putting lives at risk no to. Property did not have a washer/dryer as listed. Broken clothes airer of no use. No vac. Dust pan but no brush! No cleaning supplies. Lovely big telly with broken screen, I.e big purple patches where the display is shot. Cheapest kettle possible. One loo brush between two loos. Some crockery chipped. In all a nice place but we felt we didnt get what we paid for as we had ...

The Dairy is a good name because someone's miking a cash cow without thought of customer safety or satisfaction.

About the location

MILTON

Brampton 2 miles; Hadrian's Wall 7 miles; Carlisle 11 miles.

The small rural village of Milton is ideally placed for exploring northern Cumbria, including not-to-be-missed Hadrian's Wall, the lovely coastline of the Solway Firth and the dramatic northern Lake District National Park. The nearby market town of Brampton has a rich and colourful history going back to the Roman occupation, Border raiders from Scotland and the Jacobite uprisings. Bonnie Prince Charlie established his headquarters in one of the old buildings in Brampton, which is now a shop. A few miles outside Brampton is Talkin Tarn Country Park. It covers 180 acres, 65 of which make up the Tarn, a 10,000 year old glacial lake, fed by underwater springs. Further south is Gelt Woods which is an ancient woodland with the River Gelt running through. A superb base for exploring this historic and scenically beautiful area.
