One of three holiday cottages in a converted stone barn, this retreat commands superb views of the surrounding countryside from the vantage point of Threlkeld village, 5.5 miles from Keswick.
This cottage is part of a large stone built barn sympathetically converted into three self catering holiday cottages, situated in an imposing position at the foot of Blencathra with stunning views across the valley to Threlkeld Common and Clough Head. The start of a walk up Blencathra can commence from the front door of the property.
There is a family-friendly pub serving local real ale and home cooked food situated very close by with two more great country pubs in Threlkeld only 1 mile away, all serving good food and fine ales.
The market town of Keswick is just 5 miles away, reachable by car along the A66 or by a lovely walk, part of which follows the old railway line with wooded areas and passes by the Victorian iron railway bridges. The imposing mountain of Skiddaw is also only a short distance away. The large private patio area to the front of the cottage has wonderful views across the fells and is south facing. A further BBQ and picnic area is shared with the two adjoining holiday cottages. The cottage is situated in an easy accessible position by the A66 but set high up above it.
