  • On Cottage in the Wood Hotel:

    Posted on 3rd of July 2007

    I came upon the Cottage in the Wood by chance and couldn't believe my luck. Better than home from home: no one welcomes me as warmly and as kindly as Kath; no one ensures my meals are as interesting, beautifully cooked and presented as Liam and Kath do; even the bed is more comfortable than my own - I can no longer say there is no bed like mine at home! The setting of the hotel is magical; there is a fascinating wildlife visitor centre just up the road with a web cam show of ospreys on their nest, a range of bird feeders hanging outside so you can watch all the local birds come and go. The lakes are on your doorstep - I recommend the peace and tranquility of Buttermere, but please don't all go and crowd the place and make it unbearably noisy. To precis: Liam and Kath provide heaven, they deserve to win whatever awards are available.
