“What a cottage! Absolutely fantastic cottage. Amazing views.. We loved it. We’ll definitely be back.”

These were the words of our guests checking out of Brockstone Cottage this morning. What a lovely start to the day.

The only downside to the week? Did the guests have any complaints? Well, the weather could have been better. We’ll refer that problem to the authorities in the hopes that he/she can try a little harder.

The weather has been a bit disappointing, as the south of the country has had a sunny week, whilst we seem to have had a drizzly cloud settled over us. Our Grasmere Glee summer singing on Moss Parrock ( Grasmere village green) had to be moved into the church. We had hoped that like last year we would attract the passing tourists’ attention, give them some pleasure, and maybe get them to drop some money into the Great North Air Ambulance. collecting boxes Some people did drop into the church, and we did really enjoy ourselves singing, so all wasn’t lost. It was just a shame that we had hit the wettest day for weeks.

“The view this morning was beautiful at the cottage” – a shame to be leaving on a wonderful sunny morning like today.

We’re off now to get Brockstone Grasmere cottage ready for our next guests. We know we’ll be tempted to sit on the terrace and admire the amazing views ourselves……but there is a job to be done!

Next available week in our Grasmere cottage with amazing views? 5th to 12th September.
