Packed with old-world charm, this delightful stone cottage is surrounded by private gardens and has plenty of walking opportunities available from your doorstep. Sleeping five guests across three bedrooms, you’ll be well-positioned for exploring the village of Wray with its mock-Gothic castle and easy access to the beautiful Lake Windermere. Weary from your travels, light the wood burner and snuggle up under a blanket with your favourite brew and a film on the TV.
Cosy, characterful and boasting many period features alongside traditional furniture, your accommodation is a treat from the moment you ascend the steps and slip in through the front door. The stone hearth houses a wood burner that crackles invitingly in the timber-beamed lounge/diner, creating a sanctuary for relaxing. There’s a kitchen for rustling up delicious meals to savour around the breakfast table, and the large, enclosed garden outside is ideal for dining alfresco whilst basking in the rural setting. Upstairs, the three bedrooms share a generous bathroom with a shower over the bath.
Head to Ambleside (4 miles) and enjoy delicious home-baked treats in a cafe, browse the shops and venture further into the countryside to discover a landscape that inspired William Wordsworth and Beatrix Potter. Hawkshead, 2 miles away, is a favourite destination to learn more about these literary geniuses and appreciate the cobbled streets speckled with shops, inns and tearooms. Grizedale Forest, 5 miles away, offers an enchanting place to visit on foot or by bike, or why not take to the treetops for an aerial adventure with Go Ape?
