Perched on the hills in a picturesque spot just 1.5 miles away from the lively market town of Ulverston, this residence presents plenty of advantages. Whether it's strolling and biking along rural lanes or savouring meals at charming eateries, you can enjoy wonderful days out in the countryside during a holiday here. Ulverston hosts art displays at the historic Coronation Hall all through the year for you to discover, and the town showcases a variety of other events and festivals too, including culinary feasts, beer celebrations, and the famous Dickensian Festival. Positioned slightly over 9 miles away is Newby Bridge, where you can trace the southern tip of Lake Windermere leading to Lakeside – the starting point for embarking on Windermere Lake Cruises (10 miles). For a dose of nostalgia, visitors have the chance to relive yesteryears by partaking in a steam train voyage from Newby Bridge to Haverthwaite, a distance of 7 miles from the delightful cottage. Cartmel Racecourse is only 14 miles away.

After parking up in your private spaces, step into the cottage and straight into the high-ceilinged, open-plan living/kitchen/dining area. Flooded with light from large windows and large patio doors, the living room is the perfect space to wind down in front of the wood burner after a day on the Fells. Enjoy dinner in the kitchen whilst watching the chef of the group make use of the amply equipped kitchen. With a range oven and plenty of space, you can whip up a feast for the whole group in no time. When you’re ready for bed, retire to the master bedroom or the lovely twin. The master bedroom has a king bed and is spacious, with plenty of storage for all your holiday gear and offers practicality with its own en-suite shower room. Adjacent to the master bedroom is the twin room with a Smart TV. Across the way, you can find the family bathroom, with Jack and Jill basins, a walk-in rainfall shower and a roll-top bath.

The outside space is something you won’t soon forget with remarkable, panoramic views across the valley. Enjoy sitting at the table with a glass of wine, whilst watching the sun go down over the hills.

Swingletrees is a wonderful place to stay. Rose and Ian have made a great barn conversion. A quiet spot, in the south west of the Lake District, with amazing views.
