We enjoyed this property in the village. Next door to a pub but still very quiet. Lovely sun room. Good location to explore the area

The property was beautiful, loads of character. Felt like home. Peaceful location which was accessible to other locations which is what we wanted. The beds were soft and you sank in them.

Lime tree house is a lovely place to stay. A Little further out from the lakes but fine. Beds were extremely comfy. The house was warm once heating on but staircase down to boot room cold. The staircase is also quite steep which is fine for us but maybe no good for small children. We had our dog with us and we managed well, but with no garden and directly on road meant we had to put harness on every time he needed to go out, but this was not a major problem. Host and stay didn’t really do anything about the fact the back door wouldn’t lock at all throughout our stay it needs fixing as it is not secure, just said they would get back to us. The house has everything you need and the inn a stones throw from the door is great for drinks and darts/pool for kids. We had a comfortable stay and would stay again, as it was an easy commute to main routes to the lakes and dales.
