This farmhouse is bordered by some fabulous walks for all abilities, cycling and running routes. The property is located in the heart of Buttermere village, which has local amenities and some of the most stunning scenery in the Lake District. The market town of Keswick is just 12 miles away and if you travel on the pass between Newlands Valley and Buttermere Valley the scenery is breathtaking. En route you are bound to see Moss Force waterfall - you can park up and walk right up to this magical site. This is a great location to explore the Lake District either by foot, bike or car.

As you enter the house you will find yourself in the utility/boot room. This is a great entrance after a long walk and an ideal place for all your outdoor equipment or buggies - there is a washing machine, tumble dryer and separate WC in this area too. From here you will walk into the contemporary kitchen, with its cosy oil AGA and dining table which offers a great space to chat, catch up and plan for the next day. The kitchen is equipped with an electric hob and oven, dishwasher, microwave and fridge/freezer. From the kitchen, there is a spacious lounge with an open fire, Smart TV and comfy sofas to kick back and relax. As you head up to the first floor, you will find three bedrooms. There is a twin and double, further along the hall, there is the bathroom with a separate shower, bath and WC. Finally, there is a family suite next door with a double bed, sofa bed and en-suite shower room, due to the age of the house, the double bedroom has a lower door frame, so care needs to be taken.

Small private garden, and the village has lots of open space for you to enjoy a sunny evening. There is private parking in front of the property for three cars with a newly installed a commando electric car charging point.

We had an excellent week in this cosy, warm and welcoming house. It had everything we needed for the 5 of us (and 6 would have been comfortable too). The location is wonderful- great walks from the front door not to mention a nice tea shop next door and hotel bar and food about 20 paces away! It may have been a wet November stay but we were toasty Read morewarm and able to get all our walking stuff dry with ease. Perfect! Hide

Beautiful cosy cottage in an excellent location just 10 mins walk from the lake . Pubs serving food across the road . It was spotless. The kitchen had everything you could want and the little extras left were a lovely touch. We would stay again. Thank you

The cottage was lovely and the location was perfect for exploring Buttermere and the surrounding areas. The cottage is on a working farm and attached to a cafe which didnt bother us.

Clean and tidy with good quality bedding, towels, utensils. Utility area handy for drying/storing walking boots, coats etc. Very close to lots of great walks. Bus stop a few steps away from cottage - great service but gap for few winter months. There were just 2 of us and we stayed 2 weeks - there was insufficient toilet roll, and the cleaning packRead more has limited washing up liquid and bin bags (if you don't want a trip to a store, please be aware).

Lovely holiday cottage in a perfect location! Very close to the Lake and found it very cozy. The only downside was that the sheets in the double bedroom had a sauce stain on it, which was unfortunate. Otherwise the cottage was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. Would definitely visit again!

The cottage is in a superb location near two pubs, a cafe and a very short walk to both Buttermere and Crummock. The cottage has large rooms and is well equipped. Two dedicated parking spaces outside the door away brilliant.

Property is decent especially for big families (4 bedrooms). Views are not great since it is not on lakefront and windows are small. There are cottages/hotels with better views. Dont count on the internet. Its weak (did not work for most of our stay) though the cafe next door has quite good connectivity (old routers at cottage). Only one bathroom iRead mores an issue (we were just two but bigger families will struggle). Biggest issues is Holidaycottages team. Farms directly managed are far better Hide

Fabulous location in a stunning part of the Lake District. Remote, but with the convenience of two pubs and two cafes on the doorstep. Cottage is lovely with all amenities. Perfect for seven people. Fabulous walks / bike rides in the immediate vicinity. Lake is a stones throw away, so equally great for a spot of paddle boarding! No need to use the Read morecar. Hide
