A stay at this holiday home in the heart of the Lake District National Park offers friends and family the perfect base for adventure, history and unforgettable days out surrounded by spectacular scenery. Outdoor enthusiasts can embrace the fells with hikes up Wansfell Pike, or take on more challenging climbs such as Scafell or The Old Man of Coniston. Discover Rydal Cave (6 miles) – a fascinating man-made cavern with stepping stones across its waters. Visit Wordsworth Grasmere (7.5 miles) or Rydal Mount & Gardens (5.5 miles), both former homes of William Wordsworth, and soak up the inspiration behind some of his most famous poetry. Alternatively, step into the world of Beatrix Potter at Hill Top or explore The World of Beatrix Potter (4.5 miles) in Bowness. For family-friendly fun, swing through the trees at Treetop Lake District (3 miles), or enjoy a memorable experience meeting llamas and alpacas at Alpacaly Ever After (30 miles).

Inside, you'll find a peaceful retreat where thoughtful design meets countryside charm. On arrival, you're greeted by a practical utility room – just the place for muddy boots and outdoor gear after a day exploring. Beyond, the country kitchen is well equipped with modern appliances and all the utensils you'll need, with a welcoming dining area ready for leisurely breakfasts and hearty suppers. A steep wooden staircase leads to the first floor, where a lounge awaits. Here, a wood burner and Smart TV create a warm, inviting setting for evenings in after time spent on the lake. A few steps down from the sitting room brings you to a generous super-king bedroom with an adjoining dressing room. Nearby, a charming single bedroom provides additional flexibility. Across the way, the contemporary bathroom includes a spacious P-shaped bath with an overhead shower. From the sitting room, a small set of steps leads up to the third bedroom, tucked beneath sloping ceilings and furnished with a comfortable double bed.

Outside, a gravelled garden makes the most of the far-reaching views. Handy bike storage and off-road parking for two cars adds convenience to your stay.

Enjoyable stay. Well appointed cottage, quiet with lovely views. Top bedroom not for tall people as very low beams so have to bend low to avoid hitting your head. However, that aside we had a great time walking the fells and having a peaceful cottage to return to. Post Office great for coffee and cakes.

A fabulous place to stay in the Lake District, far enough away from the busy spots but still easy to get everywhere. Loved it, as did our two little boys! Highly recommend.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Troutbeck. The home was spacious, comfortable, full of character and walking distance to cafe and pub. A peaceful alternative to nearby Windermere and Ambleside. A magical part of the world, hope we can return one day.
