On the eastern edge of the Lake District, just a short distance from the national park’s lakes and mountains, and a brief drive from the coast, this fantastic cottage offers a peaceful retreat for families and groups of friends. The property is a well-presented escape hosting up to eight guests, complete with indoor and outdoor appeals for soaking up the region’s serenity throughout the year. Filling days with long walks and water sports on nearby lakes and rivers.
Renovated to an exceptional standard, this stone cottage beautifully blends original charm with homely, modern features. Sit beneath authentic beams and above locally sourced tiles as you unwind on the ground floor, relaxing in the lounge in front of the wood burner and Smart TV. When stomachs rumble, a well-equipped farmhouse kitchen and separate diner stand ready for memorable holiday meals. When day turns to night, head upstairs to find four delightful bedrooms, served by a ground-floor shower room and first-floor bathroom – three sumptuous doubles and a cosy twin room. Outside, unwind in the large garden, enjoying al fresco meals under the sun, or stargazing from the private hot tub.
There’s plenty of nearby walking trails to discover with hiking boots laced up and a picnic packed, including the Longland Lake Country Park (3 miles) and the pretty banks of Ennerdale Water (4 miles). Further beauty spots include the Scale Force Waterfall and the Moss Force Waterfall near Crummock Water (11 miles), where a wealth of circular walking routes await, while Fells including Grisedale Pike, Grassmoor and Great Gable are all accessible within 20 miles.
