Dear holidaymakers
When we started Sally’s Cottages in 2005, we had no idea that a
few short years down the line we’d have so many lovely cottages
and wonderful houses, a brochure and a huge website.
Most of our cottages are owned, cleaned and maintained by
local farmers and friends whose families have lived in the area
for generations. We like to have a mixture of old and new
cottages, modern and traditional interiors, town and rural, small
and country estate, to make sure we’ve covered all tastes.
The thing they have in common is that they are all situated in
western and northern Cumbria, with fabulous views, mountains
and lakes nearby.
It’s quite literally the case that there are more sheep than people
in Cumbria – or at least it is off-season! During the summer,
the central Lakes, whilst beautiful, can be heaving with people.
Keswick can also be busy, it’s true, but Eskdale, Wasdale,
Ennerdale, the coast and Ullswater are always quieter, and in some
valleys, it’s quite possible to feel you have the place to yourself.
Some of the most spectacular scenery in the area is right here.
Wasdale famously has England’s highest mountain (Scafell Pike),
deepest lake (Wastwater), and smallest church (St. Olaf’s).
We also have some wonderful stone circles in matchless locations
too numerous to list, but Castlerigg, near Keswick and Swinside,
near Duddon Bridge must be the best. Cumbria’s highest
waterfall, Scale Force, is near Crummock Water in the northwest
of the county.
Wordsworth walked here, and wrote about it; Coleridge gossiped
about Buttermere in the national press; Beatrix Potter owned land
and cottages here. In short, we like to think that the western and
northern Lakes have all the advantages of the popular central Lake
District hotspots, without the traffic jams!
As an Eskdale girl myself,
I can’t believe that there is
any more beautiful spot in
the world. Come and join us!

The walking in Eskdale is unparalleled.
You can hike from the valley bottom to the
summit of the highest peak in England,
walk over the high fells, or trace the sinister
old coffin route to Wasdale. Great Moss,
at the top of the Eskdale, is a stunning
open valley surrounded by some of the
highest mountains in the country, Scafell
Pike, Esk Hause and Bowfell. Stanley Ghyll
Force is a dramatic 60ft waterfall in a deep
gorge; the river Esk has natural pools for
swimming, and is popular with canoeists
and fishermen alike.
The valley has two small villages, Boot
and Eskdale and five pubs. The Boot Inn
has a lovely restaurant; the Brook House
Inn at Boot has 4 AA stars and they jointly
host a beer festival in June. The George
IV offers over 200 malt whiskies, and the
Bower House Inn offers great food in
Eskdale village, next to the cricket ground
and in lovely gardens. The Woolpack Inn
has its own micro-brewery.
The Ravenglass & Eskdale miniature
steam railway, affectionately known as
‘L’aal Ratty’, runs 7 miles from Dalegarth
at Boot to Ravenglass on the coast. The
Eskdale Cycle Trail runs alongside the
track.
The valley road culminates in one of the
most difficult drives in the country, at
Hard Knott Pass. Here, you can view the
remains of Hard Knott Roman fort, and
see all the way down this beautiful valley
and out to the Irish Sea beyond.
Wha House Farm Cottage
Sally’s Cottages – Eskdale
Wha House Cottage is perfect for couples and
walking friends looking for a real get-away-from-it-all
holiday. This one-floor cottage is situated on a sheep
farm in Upper Eskdale, close to England’s highest
mountain, Scafell Pike. A good hike from your door
will get you to Wasdale and Wastwater, England’s
deepest lake, and there are gentler walks along the
River Esk. The nearest pub, the Woolpack Inn, is just
half a mile away. Riders are welcome to bring one
horse to be stabled in the adjoining farm.

Sally’s Cottages – Ravenglass

An introductiion to
Ravenglass is a small coastal village with
a long, long history. The Romans found a
Celtic settlement here and decided that its
safe harbour made it an excellent place to
build their fort, Glannoventa, at the foot of
the road which travels on over Hard Knott
Pass to their fort at Galava (Ambleside)
and beyond. The fort at Ravenglass is long
gone, but you can still see the remains of
the Roman bathhouse.
Centuries on, the main industry in
western Lakeland was mining. A narrow
gauge railway line was built in 1875 to
transport iron ore from Eskdale to ships
in Ravenglass, and on around the world.
The Ravenglass & Eskdale Railway,
affectionately known as ‘L’aal Ratty’,
runs little steam trains from Ravenglass
to Muncaster Mill, Irton Road and The
Green in Eskdale village, to Beckfoot and
Dalegarth at the village of Boot. There are
lots of walks to be enjoyed at all these
stops, or you can hire bikes at Ravenglass
station and set off on the Eskdale Cycle
Trail, which follows the route of the railway.
Ravenglass is also at the foot of the
Hadrian’s Way cycleway, a 174 mile route
which goes all the way to South Shields on
the eastern coast.
The spectacular Muncaster Castle is a
mile from Ravenglass. Built in the 14th
century, the castle has a pele tower, an
octagonal library and extensive grounds.
The castle hosts ghost hunts and is wellknown for its Festival of Fools, held in May
each year. It is also home to the World Owl
Trust, where you can visit up to 48 different
types of owl.
Ravenglass is also a convenient base
for exploring Wasdale, home to England’s
highest mountain (Scafell Pike), deepest
lake (Wastwater) and smallest church
(St. Olaf’s).
Sawmill Cottage
This typical Cumbrian cottage is cosy, pretty, and
ideal for a rejuvenating break. Sawmill Cottage is two

Roman ruins and lovely beach, and one mile from
the village of Waberthwaite, best known locally for
the quality of its Cumberland sausage! From here,
you can get to the Lakeland valleys of Eskdale and
Wasdale within a twenty-minute drive, or just potter
round the country lanes nearby. The nearest pub, the

An introd
odu
uction to
Wasdale is one of the ‘big three’ mountain
valleys of the Lake District, with some of its
most dramatic scenery. Famously home to
England’s highest mountain, Scafell Pike,
and deepest lake, Wastwater, Wasdale
stretches 12 miles from Wasdale Head to
Gosforth near the coast. The valley is only
lightly populated, and there has been little
modern development.
Scafell’s main crag producing some of
the most demanding climbing in the Lake
District.
Wastwater is three miles long, half a mile
wide and 260 feet deep, making it the
deepest of all the lakes.
The lake is a popular spot for kayaking,
canoeing, rowing and swimming. It’s a
great lake to dive and rumours abound
that the local diving clubs have placed
‘teams’ of gnomes on the lake bed! There
are many bridlepaths that also allow
mountain bikes, including the popular
and very difficult routes at Blacksail Pass,
Styhead Pass and Burnmoor Tarn.
The scenery is striking, with screes
(composed of masses of small, loose
stones) that appear to climb straight out
of lake, to a height of almost 200 feet. On
the other side of the valley are the great
mountains of Yewbarrow, Seatallan, Kirk
Fell, Great Gable, Green Gable and Scafell
Pike. As befits the home of the highest
climb in England, Wasdale claims to be
the birthplace of British climbing, with
Wasdale also boasts England’s smallest
church, St. Olaf’s, built with roof beams
said to have come from Viking ships.
There are three pubs in the valley, the
Wasdale Head Inn, The Screes Inn and
Strand Hotel. Just beyond bottom of the
valley is the Santon Bridge Inn, the perfect
place to tell the most whopping lie you’ve
ever told in your life: they host the annual
‘World’s Biggest Liar’ competition!
Burnthwaite Farm Cottage
Once upon a time, Cumbria was scattered with small,
single-storey, white-washed farm cottages like this.
Burnthwaite farm is picture-postcard pretty, with dry
stone walls outside and mountains soaring behind:
the perfect place to get away from it all. Indeed, such
is Burnthwaite’s splendid position in Wasdale Head
that it isn’t within reach of TV or phone masts, so
there is no TV or mobile phone reception; the ideal
place to get away from the hubbub of working life!
There are footpaths from the farm to Scafell and Great
Gable, with gentler walks around Wastwater, which is
only a couple of miles away. The Wasdale Head Inn is
a twenty minute amble away along a country lane.
Ground floor: kitchen with dining area, sitting room, two
bedrooms (1 double, 1 twin), bathroom with over-bath

Now a bustling village, Gosforth still has
reminders of its Viking past. In St. Mary’s
churchyard is the tallest Viking cross in
England, the Gosforth or Wheel Head
Cross, believed to be over a thousand
years old. The church also houses two
Viking ‘hogback’ tombstones. The village
has four good pubs, all serving real ale,
a café, a number of craft shops and the
Gosforth Pottery.
Gosforth is at the foot of the Wasdale
Valley, where there are many bridlepaths
and gentle valley bottom walks. The
more energetic might head to the top
of the valley to tackle Scafell Pike, the
highest mountain in England. There
is also a ten-mile cycle route from
Gosforth through Wasdale to Wastwater,
England’s deepest lake.
Muncaster Castle and Owl Centre is a

Broughton-in-Furness is a small town at
the foot of the Duddon Valley. Its strategic
position near the west coast has made it
very attractive to all sorts of invaders during
the town’s long history, with successive
visits from Celts, Romans and Vikings.
Most of the buildings now standing are
Georgian, with a peppering of older
buildings, including the 300-year-old Old
King’s Head pub. The church of St. Mary
Magdalene is of Saxon foundation, with
some Norman parts, a grand 18th century
clock tower and Victorian additions.
The nearby village of Duddon Bridge is
home to one of Cumbria’s many stone
circles, Swinside. 51 stones still stand in a
90ft diameter circle, with fabulous views
all around.
The Duddon Valley follows the River
Duddon towards Wrynose Pass and the
central Lake District. It has been popular
with walkers since Wordsworth’s time, with
access to Coniston Old Man, Scafell Pike,
Dow Crag, Harter Fell, Craw and Greyfriar.
There are gentler walks at Wallabarrow
Woods, well known for rare native flowers
and plants, or climbers can find a challenge
at Wallabarrow Crag. The Duddon Valley is
also popular with canoeists, with excellent
rapids and different grades of difficulty
along the river.
Seathwaite Tarn, in the Seathwaite Fells,
is the third largest in the Lake District, and
sits at 1200ft above sea level. Fishing is
popular in the area; licences for the tarn
are available at the Newfield Inn and river
licences can be bought at the village shop
in Ulpha.
The annual Duddon Valley Fell Races,
based at the Newfield Inn in Seathwaite,
take place in May, when you can witness

Tenterfield, with its spacious open plan layout, is the

An intrroductiion to
o
Even by Lake District standards, Ennerdale
is remote. It’s a place of seclusion and
tranquillity at the westernmost edge of the
Lakes, and the only lake to have no road
running alongside it.
Officially designated a Site of Special
Scientific Interest, Ennerdale has a unique
‘prehistoric’ fish, the Arctic char, many rare
plants and ancient woodland with rare
mosses, lichens and ferns. It’s also a good
place to spot our indigenous red squirrel.
Given the lack of roads, it’s no surprise
that the valley is sparsely populated. It has
a village, Ennerdale Bridge, which has
a church and two excellent pubs both
serving good food and real ale. A short
distance from the village is Kinniside stone
circle, a prehistoric monument comprising
eleven stones.
There are walks to suit all tastes, from
gentle strolls along the lake’s edge to
mountain hikes with wonderful views
of Ennerdale Water and Buttermere.
Wainwright’s famous Coast-to-Coast walk
goes right through the village.
The area is justly famed for its climbing.
Pillar Rock, on the north face of Pillar
Mountain, was one of the first routes
mapped out by rock climbing pioneers
and is popular with climbers of all skill
levels.
There are a number of marked mountainbike trails in the area and Ennerdale is at
the end of the West Cumbria Cycle Path, a
ten-mile route from Whitehaven. Bradley’s
Riding Centre, near Kinniside, offers ponytrekking for all abilities and ages.
Ennerdale is a good base for exploring
the nearby market towns of Cockermouth,
Whitehaven and Keswick, all offering a
wealth of shops, pubs, cafes, restaurants,
museums and other attractions.
In a county full of stunning locations, Far Moor End
still has plenty to shout about. Idyllically located in
22 acres of private grounds within the Lake District
National Park, Far Moor End includes 15 acres of
woodlands, a wildflower meadow, three ponds and
a long frontage on the River Ehen (itself a Site of
Special Scientific Interest), so it’s no surprise that
our native red squirrel is still quite at home here.
Far Moor End is a mile from the Shepherd’s Arms
pub and a few minutes’ walk from Ennerdale Water,
with Cockermouth, Wordsworth’s birthplace, and
Whitehaven, the historic port, a short drive away.
Keswick is half an hour away.
The accommodation comprises the main house to
sleep ten people and a barn conversion for six. The
main entertainment area for house and barn is the
spectacular, open plan sitting and dining area in the
barn, where there is a large dining table and sofas to
seat the entire party of sixteen.
The main kitchen is in the house, with quality fittings,
quarry tiles and a large Aga. The barn has a small
kitchenette. All the bedrooms are fresh and airy,
dressed in crisp whites, creams and pale blues.
Extensive gardens, woods and ponds (although please
note that on occasion, parts may be out of bounds for
maintenance), decking, garden furniture, ample parking.

oduction to
Loweswater and its sister lakes, Crummock
Water and Buttermere, are wonderfully
peaceful even at the height of summer. The
rush and hubbub of the central Lake District
seems a long way from here.
Loweswater, like Crummock Water, is wholly
owned by the National Trust. There’s an easy
walk along the lake towards Holme Wood
and Holme Force waterfalls, where there’s a
good chance you’ll spot our indigenous red
squirrel. West of Loweswater is Mockerkin
Tarn, legendary site of the Cumbrian King
Mockerkin’s palace. Set among rolling hills
and lush pasture, the tarn is transformed
in summer by a riot of white and yellow
waterlilies.
Towards the end of Crummock Water is
the Lake District’s highest waterfall, Scale
Force, crashing 170ft through a narrow,
wooded ravine. Crummock Water feeds
into Buttermere, a popular site with an
easy 4½ mile lakeside walk. The views
Buttermere is famous for the 18th century
story of ‘The ‘Maid of Buttermere’. Mary
Robinson, a local beauty, unwittingly
married a bigamist and fraudster. Her tale
was reported by the poet Coleridge in the
national press. Before long, she found herself
added to the tourist trail as visitors flocked
to the Fish Inn, where she was a barmaid, to
see if she was as beautiful as people said!
Loweswater village is home to the Kirkstile
Inn, our regional CAMRA Pub of the Year
2009. It serves traditional food using local
produce, and showcases local beers in a
cracking beer festival each April.
Apple Tree House
Sally’s Cottages – Loweswater
Apple Tree House is a comfortable, simply
furnished cottage and a great base for exploring
this surprisingly peaceful side of the Lakes.
Situated in the pretty village of Ullock, Apple Tree
House is a ten minute drive from Loweswater and
15 minutes from Ennerdale, with the historic town
of Cockermouth just five miles away. There are
two pubs within a couple of miles: the Wild Duck
at Branthwaite and the Royal Yew at Dean, with its
1,000-year-old yew tree!

are spectacular, with High Crag, High Stile
and Hay Stacks towering above. Alfred
Wainwright considered Hay Stacks to be
‘the best fell-top of all’, with its marshy land
and many pools. The Innominate Tarn lies
near the summit, 520ft above sea level, and
it’s here that the great man’s ashes were
scattered.
Situated in the village of Pardshaw, near Loweswater,
Stoneygate Barn is a good location for a mixed
Cumbrian holiday exploring the nearby lakes of
Loweswater, Buttermere and Ennerdale, enjoying
the history and local shopping at Cockermouth, or
venturing down to the beaches and fishing villages
along the Solway coast. Stoneygate Barn is a
detached barn conversion with welcoming interiors
and great views. The nearest pub is the Old Posting

oduction to
The market town of Cockermouth is on the
River Derwent at the north-western edge of
the Lake District. Dating from Norman times,
Cockermouth retains its medieval streetplan
and has many beautiful Georgian buildings.
A good introduction to the town’s attractions
is the Cockermouth Trail. This ‘self-guided’
tour is signposted throughout the town
or you can obtain a map from the Tourist
Information Centre.
Wordsworth House, the birthplace of the
poet, William Wordsworth, is at the foot of the
main street. Recently restored to show the
house as it was at the time of Wordsworth’s
birth in 1770, there are costumed guides
and hands-on activities for children.
The Jennings Brewery has been here since
1828, and offers popular brewery tours that
include sampling and the opportunity to
purchase some of their excellent ales.
Whilst Cockermouth may be famous
for poetry and local beer, sheep were
Cockermouth has plenty of independent
shops selling second-hand books, antiques
and local produce. There’s no shortage of
pubs, restaurants, and cafes selling local
food and real ale, including the Bitter End
pub with its own micro-brewery, and the wellknown vegetarian café, the Quince & Medlar.
Cockermouth is a good base for visiting
Cumbria’s great outdoors. The lakes of
Loweswater, Bassenthwaite and Buttermere
have lovely lakeside paths and excellent
picnic opportunities. Keswick, a few miles to

suitable for pushchairs, wheelchairs and
tired people! Recently revamped, the path
now has lots of benches and picnic tables.
The Keswick Launch offers trips around the
lake, and you can also hire your own motor
launch or rowing boat.
There are so many places to visit in and
around Keswick. Derwent Island House,
on an island on the lake, is open a few
times a year. The Theatre by the Lake
has a growing reputation for excellent
productions. The Pencil Museum, home
of Cumberland Pencils, is fascinating, and
the Cars of the Stars and James Bond
museums are suitable for kids of all ages!
The Keswick Mining Museum tells the tale
of local mining, or you can take a restorative
tour around the Keswick Brewery.
The more energetic will enjoy learning to
sail or windsurf at the Derwentwater Marina,
in Portinscale, or lessons at the Keswick
Climbing Wall. Plattyplus will teach you how
to command a Viking longship, or you can
take in a round of golf at Keswick Golf Club,

Castlerigg Stone Circle isn’t the largest or
tallest in the UK, but it may be the most

We can’t better Alfred Wainwright’s
description of Borrowdale as ‘a pageant
of beauty from end to end’. Borrowdale
has everything you need for a proper Lake
District adventure: a grand lake, soaring
mountains, emerald valleys, woodlands,
tumbling gills and a cold, clear tarn.
Borrowdale is the valley of the River
Derwent, which exits Derwentwater at
Keswick. It’s sparsely populated, with only a
few hamlets and farmhouses. Watendlath is
best-known for its beautiful tarn. The pretty
village of Grange has two cafés, a hotel bar
and a wide, shallow stretch of river ideal
for paddling. Rosthwaite has a pub and
the valley’s only shop; Stonethwaite has
another pub, the Langstrath Inn. Seatoller
has a Tourist Information Centre with crafts,
organised walks and snacks-to-go.
The Lodore Falls, behind the Lodore
Hotel, are simply beautiful, even when the
falls have reduced to a trickle. The falls
At the foot of the valley are some of the best
climbing fells in the Lake District; Green
Gable, Great Gable, Glaramara and Scafell
beyond. For those who love the scenery
but not the leg-ache of the mountains, there

“I wandered lonely as a cloud that floats
on high o’er vales and hills, when all at
once I saw a crowd, a host, of golden
daffodills”. William Wordsworth penned
his most popular lines when he visited
Ullswater in April, 1802.
Given its proximity to the main road these
days, you’d think it would be roaringly busy,
but no; Ullswater is a calm place, rarely
overrun with visitors. The lake itself is 7½
miles long, and deep, too, with the soaring
fells of High Street on its eastern side. No
trip would be complete without a trip on the
famous Ullswater Steamer or a visit to Aira
Force, a 70ft waterfall on the western shore.
The area is rich in prehistoric sites, with
stone circles at Cock Pit, on Barton Fell,
at Moor Divock and Swarth Fell. There
are a couple of Iron Age forts here, and
we mustn’t forget that the High Street
range of mountains actually recalls
Ullswater is blessed with one of the best
places to eat in the country – Sharrow
Bay Hotel. Based in a Victorian mansion
on the lake’s edge, a meal here is a bit
of an investment, but well worth it for a
serious treat!
W
Ullswater is an excellent base for trips
into the busier parts of the Lakes, around
Ambleside, Grasmere and Windermere.
It’s also convenient for the lesser-known
attractions of the Eden Valley and Penrith
with its individual shops, ruined castle

(b) if the Hirer has booked Holiday Accommodation
which does not permit a pet then the Owner has
the right to enter the Holiday Accommodation and
require the Hirer and all those within the Party to
vacate the Holiday Accommodation. If the Owner
does take this action then the Hire Period shall be
deemed to have immediately come to an end and
the Hirer (and anybody within the Party) shall not
be entitled to a refund or any compensation for any
reason due to the Hire Period coming to an end
early.

in the Holiday Accommodation from the descriptions
on its Website, or any changes made to the Holiday
Accommodation by the Owner after the date of the
Booking Enquiry. If there are any material changes to
the Holiday Accommodation which are made after the
date of the Booking Enquiry the Company will make
the Hirer aware of any material changes as soon as
reasonably possible after the Company becomes aware
of them.
Occasionally the exteriors, furniture, furnishings and
room layouts of the Holiday Accommodation may differ
from the photographs on the Website.
6.2 Maintenance
Grass cutting, gardening, window cleaning and maintenance
works etc may from time to time be carried out by or on behalf
of the Owner during the Hire Period, however where possible
the Owner will try to accommodate the Hirer’s reasonable
requirements if they are aware of them and will try to carry out
all such works with the least disruption to the Hirer and the
Party as far as reasonably possible.
6.3 Old Cottages
If the Holiday Accommodation is an old cottage then it may be
prone to damp patches during wet or humid weather, and prone
to condensation on walls. These problems can be alleviated
by ventilating the property. However, as a general rule elderly,
young, or those sensitive to humidity and damp should avoid
such cottages especially in the wettest periods (e.g. winter and
early spring). Please note also that old cottages can be prone
to uneven floors.
6.4 Private Water Supply
Some of the cottages have a private water supply. Where this is
the case, the supply is filtered and checked by the council but
we recommend that the Hirer boils water before drinking it or
uses bottled water.
6.5 Cots and High Chairs
Not all Holiday Accommodation will have a cot and high chair
available to use during the Hire Period. The Hirer should
check the availability of a cot and high chair at the Holiday
Accommodation at the time of the Booking Enquiry and should
confirm at the time of the Booking Enquiry whether they will be
required during the Hire Period. Cots and high chairs will vary
in age, style and condition and should only be used by a small
child aged under 24 months.
6.6 Bed Linen, Cot Linen and Towels
Bed linen is provided at the Holiday Accommodation but
cot linen is not provided (and the Hirer should bring their
own). Towels will not be provided as standard at the Holiday
Accommodation (unless the Company has notified the Hirer
otherwise in advance of the Hire Period). Occasionally towels
can be hired at an extra cost if ordered at least 2 weeks in
advance of the first day of the Hire Period.
6.7 Timing of Occupancy and Vacation
Acting on behalf of the Owner, the Company shall notify the
Hirer in advance of the Hire Period of the time at which the
Hirer and the Party can commence occupation of the Holiday
Accommodation, and of the time at which the Hirer and the
Party must vacate the Holiday Accommodation.
6.8 Basis of Occupation
The Holiday Accommodation is let to the Hirer and the Party
for the Hire Period only (without prejudice to the Owner’s right
to bring the Hire Period to an end early in accordance with
these Conditions) and is not an Assured Tenancy or Assured
Shorthold Tenancy as defined by the Housing Act 1988 as
amended.
7
7.1
Complaints
If the Hirer has cause for complaint during the Hire Period the
matter should be raised in the first instance with the Owner as
soon as reasonably possible using the contact details provided
to the Hirer by the Company. If the Hirer is unable to contact the
Owner then the Hirer should contact the Company as soon as
reasonably possible. This will allow the Owner time to consider
the complaint and if possible and reasonable, will allow the
Owner to take action it reasonably can to rectify the problem.
If the Owner is satisfied that the problem cannot be rectified it
may, at its discretion, offer the Hirer a refund of all or part of the
Price.
7.2 If the Hirer does not raise any complaint which it may have
during the Hire Period, the Owner shall not, except in limited
circumstances, consider any and all complaints the Hirer raises
after the Hire Period has come to an end.
8

Sally’s Cottages
Most cottages take a winter weekend break from November through to Easter (see winter weekend prices - up to three nights) but please ask first as the occasional one
doesn’t. Some cottages (particularly the larger ones) offer weekend breaks throughout the year (with the possible exception of school holidays). The weekend rate is generally worked out as 75% of the weekly rate. Some cottages offer a split pricing system whereby a discount is offered if there are only a certain number (usually 2) of you
using the property. A damage deposit is requested at some of the cottages, particularly the ones sleeping 8 or more people. This is returned within a fortnight of your stay
(assuming, of course, that no damage has occurred). Where cottages accept a pet, there is an additional charge of £15 per dog. We ask for a deposit of around a third
upon booking with the balance being due six weeks in advance. You can pay by cheque made payable to Sally Ltd or call us with your card details. There is no charge for
cheque or debit card, but a 2.5% fee for a credit card payment. Errors and omissions excepted.
