This lovingly decorated cottage offers a wonderful family escape to the country, set in a great location for walkers, cyclists and those who truly appreciate nature.
A charming property bursting with original character and surrounded by the lush Cumbrian countryside, this rural hideaway is ideal for outdoorsy families or groups of friends. A true walkers paradise, fill your lungs with crisp country air as you amble through the emerald hills on the Pennie Way trail, before stretching weary feet and enjoying a tipple in front of the crackling open fire.
This quintessential English cottage boasts dark wooden beams, stable doors, and accents of warm plum tones, creating a cosy and welcoming space. Step through the wooden gate then kick off muddy hiking boots at the door and enter the hallway. Throw another log on the fire, grab some well-deserved nibbles, then sit back on the sofas and watch a film on the TV. Potter in the farmhouse-style kitchen or sink onto the armchair and bask in the warmth of the wood burner to watch as the resident chef puts their knife skills to work. Gather around the dining table and debrief on the day’s activities while you wine and dine with a hearty post-adventure feast. Retreat upstairs to the first floor encompassing a bright double and a single room with garden views, then ascend a further set of stairs to reach the tranquil king-size room. Sip your morning brew on the enclosed patio with wonderful rolling vistas or grab some blankets and settle in for some evening stargazing.
Pack a picnic then step out and attempt to tackle the dominating peak of Wild Boar Fell, accessible from your doorstep. History buffs will delight in exploring the historic ruins of Pendragon Castle, steeped in King Arthur legend, within 1 mile, or venture to the ionic Lowther Castle for a truly memorable day trip for all the family, 29 miles.
