Guests find the property cosy and the bed comfortable, contributing to a restful stay. However, there is a mention that the sleeping area may not be suitable for less able-bodied individuals, and the shower size may be restrictive for taller guests.

    Amenities: The bolthole itself is well-equipped with all the modern conveniences you could need. The kitchen is fully stocked, making it easy to prepare meals, and the living area is cozy and comfortable, perfect for relaxing after a day of adventure. The bed was incredibly comfortable, ensuring a good night’s sleep. Experience: Absolutely nothing to complain about. My stay was nothing short of wonderful. The hosts were incredibly accommodating and at the start of the break, even provided a rescue service, after I had got lost when my Satnav sent me to the wrong address Highlights: One of the standout features of High Wreah, is its proximity to some of the Lake District’s most famous attractions. Buttermere, Wasdale and Keswick are only a 40 minute drive, with plenty of photographic opportunities along the way. Additionally, the peaceful and tranquil setting of the cabin made it a perfect retreat from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Improvements: The tv signal was a bit spotty at times. However, this minor inconvenience did not detract from our overall experience. Overall, I highly recommend High Wreah Bolt Hoke to anyone looking for a relaxing and memorable stay in the Lake District.

    The host, Carol, was so friendly and welcoming and went above and beyond for us during our stay. The only thing to be mindful of is the bathroom is really small; My boyfriend is 6 foot and couldn’t fit in the shower comfortably. The WiFi was also out of range the whole stay so it might be worthwhile to download anything you might need before you go. Other than that it was a beautiful little place
