Overview
Property code: 88773

Traditional stone property set in the stunning Buttermere Valley, between the peak of Grasmoor and the northern tip of Crummock Water. A haven for walkers of all abilities, whether it’s just a flat ramble around a lake and woodland or a hill climb up a relentless fell. Keen walkers should visit Grasmoor (0.5 miles), Haystacks (17 miles) and Mellbreak (4 miles) with the promise of spectacular views at the top on a clear day! Enjoy a visit to the historic town of Cockermouth, the birthplace of William Wordsworth, (7.5 miles), or the bustling town of Keswick (12 miles) has numerous attractions including Theatre on the Lake, as well as ghyll scrambling, canyoning, kayaking or paddleboarding available.

 As you enter the property, you will find yourself in the traditional country-style kitchen with a tiled floor, informal dining and some storage for coats and muddy walking boots. There are two steps from the kitchen down into the hallway and off the hallway, there is a lobby area with access out to the garden and a handy WC. Further along the hallway down one step, you will find yourself in the welcoming lounge. This room has comfortable seating, a stunning fireplace with a cosy wood burner, and an armchair which offers the perfect place to curl up with a good book on a chilly evening. There is a Smart TV in the lounge and an atmospheric formal lounge which is open-plan to the rear of the seating area. There is access out onto the patio and to the garden from the French doors in the lounge. Head back into the hallway and you will find the original spiral stone staircase up to the first floor. There are three spacious bedrooms on the first floor, one king-size, one double (one bedroom is accessed via three steps from the landing) and a twin. There is a family bathroom mid-landing.

The pretty enclosed country garden is accessed from either the lobby or lounge. There is a patio directly outside the lounge and lots of lawns and trees to shelter under on a warm day. The views over the fields, fells and valley are breathtaking whatever the weather.

Lovely location, very cosy cottage. The kitchen was very well equipped, however, I will say that, no tea, coffee etc, are provided, so do be prepared to take everything with you, including salt and pepper. During our stay we had to batten down the hatches from storm Agnes, so we stocked up on logs, and spent a lovely afternoon/evening in front of tRead morehe fire. We did manage to do some great walks from the door. Would definitely recommend this lovely cottage. Hope to return again soon. Hide

This is our third or fourth time at Lanthwaite Green Old Farmhouse, and that should tell you all you need to know! Lovely old farmhouse and scenery to die for.

This is a nice house in a brilliant location. Great fell walking available from the door and wet weather walks too. Easy walking access to the Kirkstile Inn and the lake.

This is a beautiful house in a wonderful location; the location really could not be bettered for the views. The house has a very well equipped kitchen, and is spacious and clean. It feels remote but is only 20 minutes from Cockermouth and 10 minutes from Buttermere. Lots of great walks on the doorstep.

Fantastic property in an idyllic location, views are stunning with lots of surrounding walks from the front gate. The farmhouse is well equipped with all you need for a comfortable stay.

We had a wonderful time at Lanthwaite Old Farmhouse. The property is beautifully clean, spacious, well equipped and cozy - with stunning views to boot. Some enduring family memories were made - movie night on the sofa in front of the fire, treasure hunts around the grounds and many more
