Anyone keen for a Lake District adventure, look no further than this charming stone-built Edwardian-era cottage in Far Sawrey, a cosy base for families and groups of friends to return home to.
After a day exploring the lakes, the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner welcomes you to cook, unwind and dine with loved ones. The antique-style dining table beside the French doors makes the most of indoor/outdoor living, whilst the stylish, contemporary kitchen features everything you need to rustle up something delicious. Follow the warmth of the open fire into the delightfully cosy lounge to sit back and relax; glass doors lead into a further peaceful snug, the perfect quiet spot to plan tomorrow’s adventure. The king-size, single and zip-and-link bedroom (can be made up as a twin or a super-king-size) upstairs each shares the same soothing hues and idyllic charm as the ground floor. Outside, you’ll find a gravelled patio, ideal for al fresco dining, a sheltered lawn, and a furnished veranda overlooking the pretty front garden. Off-road parking is available for two cars. Please note that several stone steps lead to the front door, and there are steps to the back door.
Lose yourself in the authentic village feel of Far Sawrey, boasting a half-mile walk leading to Near Sawrey and Hill Top, the former home of Beatrix Potter. The village of Hawkshead (3 miles) is home to cobbled courtyards which lead to the main square where you’ll find a great selection of pubs, cafes, interesting shops and galleries. Those who love life on the water can hire a canoe, paddleboard or kayak to explore the tranquil waters of Coniston Water, 6 miles away. For eager walkers, hikers, nature spotters and history buffs, the area has a wealth of attractions, including Tarn Hows, Brantwood, and Wray Castle, all within 8 miles.
