Bask in the sunshine, soak up the undulating scenery and let go of all the stresses of daily life when you stay at this special holiday retreat in the Lake District. Situated on a picturesque, verdant farm at Bridgend, 1 mile from Patterdale and Ullswater, this one-bedroom shepherd’s hut sleeps two guests and could be perfect for a couple on a romantic break. Beautifully designed and immaculately presented, the inviting abode offers compact yet exceptionally comfortable accommodation for anyone keen to be close to the great outdoors.
Tear yourselves away from the enchanting scenery to take four steps up into the shepherd’s hut and discover your creatively designed lounge/kitchen/diner/bedroom. You can choose between the thoughtfully designed kitchen space or outside BBQ for whipping up delicious dinners for two with local Lakeland produce you have bought. Open the doors to bring the fresh air in on warm days, or settle down to your favourite programme on the Smart TV when the weather is chilly. Have a hot shower before climbing into your inviting double bed after spending the evening in front of the fire pit. Take your morning coffee out into the sunshine and lose yourselves in your picturesque surroundings until you are ready to head off on your next adventure. You also have parking for one car with this holiday retreat.
Pack a picnic, lace up your boots and walk just over 1 mile to pick up the Ullswater Way. This scenic, 20-mile route takes you all the way around the lake. Tackle it in stages, catching steamboats from piers along the shores when you opt not to walk. Hike 5 miles from the shepherd’s hut to reach the stunning beauty spot of Aira Force Waterfall. Climb up to the 950-metre summit of Helvellyn mountain, 4 miles from your base, for breathtaking, panoramic vistas right out across the Lake District.
