A welcoming retreat nestled in the magnificent Lake District National Park, this delightful cottage near the hamlet of Littletown is surrounded by breathtaking scenery. Sleeping two guests, the one-bedroom abode is perfect for a couple or a pair of friends wishing to escape into complete tranquillity. Step out from the doorstep to explore Newland's Horseshoe, a scenic ridge walk encircling the beautiful Newlands Valley. Venture 3.5 miles on foot to reach beautiful Derwentwater, where you can pick up the scenic 10-mile stroll around the entire lake. Walk 2.5 miles to climb Catbells, with its spectacular views across to Skiddaw. Head 6 miles into Keswick to meander through the independent shops, dine out and book tickets to see a show at the Theatre by the Lake. Take a cruise out on Derwentwater or hire rowing boats, canoes or kayaks and set off under your own steam. Spend an afternoon at beautiful Whinlatter Forest, 6 miles away, with its leafy walks.

Admire your incredible surroundings before heading into this charming cottage and making yourselves at home. Enter the kitchen/diner, where you can enjoy the views out over the Lowther Valley as you prepare your next delicious meal. Dine in here at the table together before ambling through to the cosy lounge to spend a relaxing evening in. Light the wood burner on chilly days, then unwind as it provides a cosy glow. Take in the glorious Lake District vistas from this room too, or find a good film on the Smart TV. As eyelids begin to droop, climb the stairs to the upper level of the cottage. Here, you will find a bedroom that offers great flexibility for different sleeping arrangements. Highlight at booking whether you would like this set up as a king-size or two singles. The bathroom, which features both a bath and a shower, is also here.

The gorgeous garden at this cottage makes this a fabulous place to stay when the sun is shining. Choose where to relax with your cup of coffee or glass of wine. Grill supper on the BBQ and dine against the picturesque backdrop. There is private, off-road parking here for two cars.

We really enjoyed our two week stay at High Snab Farm. We met Tom who was friendly and helpful. The views down the valley to Keswick, and across to Catbells were glorious. Swallows zoomed around in front of the farm. You can do a lot of walking straight from the door. The cottage had everything we needed.

We loved our stay at the cottage. It was spotlessly clean, warm and well equipped and the views across to catbells were magnificent. Its location was perfect for walking and so quiet and out of the way. Wed highly recommend High Snab for all these reasons
