Relish the peace and quiet at this quaint two-bed cottage surrounded by beautiful Cumbrian countryside. Located in the peaceful village of Croglin in the Eden Valley, you can use it as a base for exploring the Pennines and the Lake District National Park while enjoying the tranquil ambience of this rural retreat. Get your boots on and walk with your canine companion during the day and, at night, head outside for some serious stargazing or just relax by the cosy wood burner. This comfortable property would equally appeal to one or two couples or a small family.
This stone cottage is pretty outside, with a wooden decorative porch welcoming you through the door to the open-plan living/dining room. Ensure you have a towel to hand for the dog in the useful interior porch. The lounge is packed with character, with beams on the ceiling, a wood burner in a stone inglenook and wooden floors. There’s a table seating four where you can tuck into holiday feasts prepared in the small but perfectly formed kitchen. The modern family bathroom is downstairs too. The bedrooms are versatile with one double and one twin which can become a super-king-size on request. Both are welcoming and relaxed spaces with wood-panelled ceilings and neutral decor for a restful night. There’s a small unfenced area outside with a bistro table and gorgeous views over the fields for a drink any time of the day.
There are walks aplenty from the village of Croglin itself. Carlisle is 16 miles away if you need to stock up on serious supplies. Otherwise, the Lake District and Hadrian’s Wall are all within 20 miles. Armathwaite village (6 miles) has a station on the famous Carlisle to Settle railway if you feel like hopping aboard your own holiday express!
