Surrounded by the majestic scenery of the Dunnerdale Valley with its meandering salmon rivers, rugged fells and pockets of ancient woodland is this gem of a property that sleeps up to eight guests in comfort. The handy location means you could soon be exploring the ethereally pretty Coniston Water 16 miles away, or treading the pretty cobbled streets of Hawkshead, a village popular with Wordsworth and Beatrix Potter. Inspired by your adventures and ready to unwind in style, your holiday accommodation aims to please with a roaring wood burner and cosy interiors.
Wander through the attractive garden and leave your muddy shoes and coats by the door, heading inside your cosy abode ready to hunker down with hot chocolate and homemade cake. Traditional beams, exposed stone and surprisingly contemporary details feature throughout, whether you are snuggled up by the wood burner in the lounge or cooking up a fabulous feast in the generous kitchen. There’s a large table for dining, and the patio is a wonderful place to start your morning with fresh coffee and views of the fells. Your sleeping quarters are a treat with four bedrooms in total, two of which have their own en-suite bathrooms and the remainder share the family bathroom.
Plan a staycation that is as active as you please, enjoying water sports on Coniston Water and lacing up your boots ready to scale the scenic trails. Elterwater 13 miles away offers walks straight out of a fairy tale, where you can enjoy walks downstream to admire the waterfalls and refuel in one of two friendly pubs. Grasmere 20 miles away is a delightful destination for an afternoon excursion, be sure to pick up a chunk of the famous gingerbread as you explore the quintessential village.
