This cottage is set in an outstanding location close to Ullswater, in the heart of one of the most spectacular areas in the Lake District. The property is at the foot of Little Mell Fell and is surrounded by beautiful rural landscapes. Situated away from the main roads, this home offers a rare opportunity for quiet retreat.
This tranquil home is a great base for exploring some of the most beautiful countryside in England. From short lakeside strolls to long distance hikes, there is a fantastic variety of walking right from the door. Water sports enthusiasts are also catered for, with a wealth of opportunities on Ullswater and the nearby Derwentwater, and nature lovers will enjoy the stunning scenery, varied wildlife and peaceful ancient woodlands.
