This charming countryside cottage is ideal for couples seeking a blend of relaxation and outdoor adventure in the stunning Lake District. Step outside and take a leisurely 2-mile walk to the picturesque village of Bowness to enjoy tempting treats and the cafe and take in the views. For an aquatic adventure, try your hand at a range of water sports on Windermere (3 miles) or hop on a ferry in Bowness to see the area from a whole new perspective. Explore the historic market town of Kendal (9 miles), known for its independent shops, delightful cafes, and the impressive Kendal Castle ruins offering sweeping views over the town and beyond. For a day of outdoor exploration, head to Ambleside (7 miles), a popular meeting point for walkers and cyclists to set off and explore deeper into the national park.

Step through the front door and into the inviting open-plan lounge, where exposed stone walls and a crackling wood burner create a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Sit back on the comfortable sofa seating and toast the toes after a day of discovery. Next door, you'll find a lovely four-poster bedroom, complete with its own en-suite shower room to refresh at the end of the day. A small set of stairs leads you down to the well-equipped kitchen and dining area, featuring rustic wooden beams overhead and plenty of natural light pouring in from a skylight, creating a bright and airy space for enjoying cooking and dining.

Outside, there's a private garden with seating from which to enjoy your morning coffee while overlooking the surrounding fells. There's a handy external utility room with a washing machine and tumble dryer for cleaning muddy kit, while off-road parking ensures your stay is hassle-free from arrival. There is ample parking available.

A beautiful cottage in a wonderful location. Calm and peaceful, yet just a few minutes away from Bowness. Would recommend to anyone.

Despite the above we loved the cottage. It was very quiet and in a fabulous rural location away from major roads. It was also very comfortable and well equipped. We'd definitely like to return one day.

What an idyllic place to stay. The cottage itself was very well kept, clean and so welcoming to new guests. The 4 poster super king size bed was extremely comfortable. Whilst still retaining the farmhouse cottage feel, it offered a contemporary bathroom and kitchen area. The views were beyond stunning and there was direct access to the fells if youRead more wanted a walk to blow away those cobwebs. As it is on a working farm, we were able to hear the cows and sheep in the distance. Wild grouse in the fields and swallows nesting nearby with their chicks were an added bonus. It is far enough for utter tranquility but close enough to places of interest. We will definitely be going back if the owners will have us. We deem ourselves very lucky indeed, to have been allowed to stay in their perfect little cottage for 2. Hide

Very great cottage and location! I think it is the best cottage I have ever booked in the Lake District. Very peaceful in the middle of the countryside surrounded by sheep and all this green, though it is only a couple of miles away from Bowness. I warmly recommend Fell View Cottage to anyone.

Fell View Cottage did indeed have a lovely view of the fells. The bed was comfortable as were the seats in the lounge. A very peaceful position but easy to access all the Lake District has to offer. Very helpful, friendly caretakers.
