Description from owner
Description
Yetlands Cottage is a cottage in the delightful Cumbrian village of Renwick. The cottage has the Trip Advisor Certificate of Excellence. The cottage adjoins the owners' house, Thackmoor Nook, but has separate private access.
The cottage now has ultra fast broadband and an Amazon Firestick. Mobile phone signal is poor in the village. If guests need urgently to use a phone, you are welcome to use our landline.
The living room has a wood burning stove, TV and internet access. The kitchen area has oven, fridge, microwave and dishwasher. The porch is suitable for walking/cycling gear while upstairs is the bedroom with king size bed, built in wardrobe and bathroom. The bedroom has plenty of space for a cot. The bathroom has a shower and bath. Upstairs the original wood window beams can be seen.
Guests have a separate grassed area but also access to the owner's garden. We have a small wild flower area with a bench/table which is lovely for sitting on an evening. Guests have use of the owners' washing machine and tumble drier. We provide enough fuel for the stove free. Guests can bring dogs but they can't be left in the property without an adult there and aren't allowed up onto the furniture.
The property is on the edge of the village and there is no through traffic passing by, making it quiet and safe. Opposite us is a farm barn and field which has lambs in spring. Renwick is ideal for walking, cycling and relaxing. The cottage is close to the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Beauty. For both walking and cycling there is an excellent variety of routes immediately from the house such as Renwick Fell on the lower Pennines and the C2C is nearby. Sunset from Renwick Fell, looking across the Eden Valley to the Lakes is often stunning. We have 2 bikes that are available for guests at no charge..
The owners send a great deal of information about the area to guests before they arrive. We are keen on outdoor activities and can offer advice on walks suitable for all levels of activity. We also provide written guides for some local walks. The cottage has a customised OS map on the wall which shows the local area and centred on Renwick.
There are 3 pubs with excellent eating facilities within 4 miles. Shops are about 10 minutes drive away in the village of Kirkoswald, (which won an award in the Britain in Bloom competition) and there is a Co-Op supermarket in Lazonby, which guests often go through on their way to the cottage. Lazonby also has a station, post office and petrol.
There is lots to do in the area. The large Celtic Stone Circle of Long Meg and her Daughters is nearby. A short and easy walk takes you to Lacy's Caves, beside the Eden where in the 18th century a local landowner stored his wine - sadly now gone! This is is a lovely walk along the side of the Eden and salmon can sometimes be seen. Kirkoswald has a lovely church dating from the 12C. The RSPB site at Geltsdale is 25 minutes away and has just got Dark Sky Discovery Site status.
Penrith is 20 minutes travel and has a cinema, supermarkets and other services expected in a large town. There is easy access to the Lake District from the cottage and Ullswater is about 30 minutes drive.
Hadrian's Wall at Birdoswald is also about 30 minutes drive. On the way is the small market town of Brampton. The present church is a splendid example of the work of the Pre-Raphaelites. This is the only church built by the architect Philip Webb and is adorned by an exquisite set of stained glass windows designed by Sir Edward Burne-Jones and manufactured by William Morris.
We have a DVD player but not Satellite TV. We provide some DVDs.

“The perfect quiet getaway.”
We have just returned from a 4 night stay in the cottage, the cottage was cosy with everything that we needed. Due to the warm weather we didn’t need to use the log burner but it was nice that it was there in case. It was perfect for a relaxing stay to unwind with no unwanted interruptions from people or traffic, we would certainly recommend this to everyone and plan to return.

“Spot on”
This is a lovely little one bed cottage in a quiet village on the slopes of the Pennines. The rooms are a great size, kitchen has all you need, rural walked are on the doorstep, the Pennines and Lakes are an easy drive. All was clean and tidy on arrival. Do be aware that local shops are a few miles away, mobile and WiFi connection are poor/non existent. We’d definite return, it’s ideal for those wanting a good walking, quiet, comfortable break.

Response from the owner Hi many thanks. Is there maybe a bit missing as the reference to pot luck doesn't seem to follow the previous bit?
