Hollowmire

Hollowmire is a delightful cottage, sleeping 6 people with lovely gardens and fabulous views over Eskdale Common and Muncaster Fell. Situated in a prime location in Eskdale, the cottage offers loads of walks straight from its front door and is perfectly situated for exploring the surrounding mountains, rivers and lakes.

Adventurous hikers can walk up along the top of the Wasdale Screes and over Scafell and Scafell Pike (the Highest mountains in the Lake District) but from the door of the cottage, there are also gentle strolls along the valley bottom.

Eskdale Green is a ten minute walk away and has a village shop selling a good range of essentials – you can get the papers and fresh milk for your coffee and then sit out in the cottage garden and soak up the sun, listen to the birds and enjoy the views.

There are five pubs in Eskdale and two of them are within walking distance of the cottage, The King George IV and the Bower House Inn – both serving good food and excellent local ales.

It’s a two minute walk to the station on the Ravenglass and Eskdale Miniature Railway and fifteen minutes drive out to Muncaster Castle on the coast (or a lovely walk along Muncaster Fell and then you can catch the La’al Ratty home).
