8 Corkickle Reviews

The house was fabulous and suited all of our needs. Jacki couldnt have been more helpful and accommodating providing all advice and assistance throughout! We would definitely return to this house or consider the other house looked after by Jacki in St Bees!
Whilst a beautiful home and decorated and furnished to a high standard a number of things made it difficult. Fridge in main kitchen had to be cleaned. One first floor bathroom out of action until the Wednesday, which meant the day of the wedding some of us needed to go elsewhere to shower. The bed springs in the double bedroom on first floor right side were broken so the bed sank in the middle. There was a continual roof leak in the first floor bedroom at the front of the house requiring us to position bin and bowl as the carpet was getting wet.. We understood about the bathroom as you cannot foresee these things. However the leaking roof seemed to be an established leak and we could have been notified. Obviously it rained heavily throughout our stay and with better weather some things may not have been noticed.
I thoroughly recommend this magnificent property in superb area of Whitehaven. The superb house was immaculately clean and fully equipped. Ideally situated for all our requirements and suitable for all our ages ranging from four years through to mid seventies. Incidentally I did not receive the information concerning the used linen, towels, dishwasher and lights until after I returned home, I would have appreciated receiving these facts before my arrival.

Lake District Wildlife Park - CA12 4RD
about 17 Miles
We love this day out in Cumbria where you're encouraged to "take a fresh look".  Some of the amazing animals you will get to see include the only Canadian Lynx in the UK and you will have the opportunity to help their Lynx Conservation Project.  The Asian Fishing Cat is also well worth a look - these cats are known for diving under the water and catching fish!  Other activities include fantastic flying displays and play areas for the little ones...
Rydal Mount & Gardens - LA22 9LU
about 24 Miles
Rydal Mount & Gardens are wonderfully situated between Lake Windermere and Rydal Water offering breathtaking scenery. The home of William Wordsworth from 1813 - 1850 the grand home is now lived in by the poets descendents but parts of the house and grounds are open to the public. Why not take a guided tour and see the rooms where many of the famous poems were written. The gardens are beautiful at all times of the year but in the summer offer a spectacular display of colour. There is also a gallery and a tearoom. Discounts are available for group bookings.
Ullswater Steamers - CA11 0US
about 25 Miles
This is an award winning Lake District attraction and they have been operating cruisers on Lake Ullswater for over 150 years.  There is no better way to explore the lakes than on water and you could even combine a cruise with a spectacular walk.  For great days out in this region then this attraction is highly recommended and will appeal to couples as well as families.  Corporate groups are also well catered for.
