A walker’s paradise in a picturesque valley, you can take a stroll to the Helvellyn Range, St Sunday Crag and Place Fell. If you like to absorb the sights and sounds of water, the shores of Ullswater are just 1 mile away and you can easily walk there. Head to the northern side of the lake and visit the spectacular Aira Force Waterfall.

There’s a lovely country-style pub less than 0.5 miles away serving up some fabulous home-cooked food.

There is plenty of seating available on the sofa and a TV with freeview and a DVD player, ideal for evenings in. Tuck into home-cooked meals at the dining table which seats all four guests. Head through to the small galley kitchen that is well-equipped for your self-catering stay including an oven, hob, fridge, freezer, washing machine and a dishwasher. A light and bright master double bedroom has stunning views from the window and an en-suite with shower and WC. The twin bedroom has a door leading to the terrace and garden and a family bathroom with a bath and shower tap fitting completes the interior of the property.

To the front of the property is a private driveway which has room for three cars. Outside the back of the cottage is a magnificent, mature garden with amazing views over the Lakeland fells and mountains. The garden has a spacious lawned area and a sheltered terrace space with pretty garden furniture. Pour a glass of wine and enjoy watching the sunset behind the mountains beyond.

It's a fabulous cottage right at the foot of Place Fell. No need to drive or walk to a better-known mountain as this one offers amazing views and is also fairly challenging

This is great accommodation with a beautiful garden, perfectly located for walking holidays. Plenty space for me and my dog. Everything was clean, there is a well equipped kitchen.

And the garden is not dog escape proof. Having said that, an earth anchor is provided to tether your Houdini the dog. Hide

Small but perfectly formed. Had a wonderful stay at Ghyll Foot. The accommodation was immaculately clean, well equipped and really cosy. It even had a stash of hot water bottles for the colder months! Great location. We started our circular walk up Helvellyn from the front door!

A beautiful 1930s cottage with loads of character and in a terrific setting amongst a typical Lake-district setting. It was comfortable and warm with good beds and bath/shower facilities. And the fells started just outside the back door!

We loved staying at Ghyll Foot. We were 3 adults and it was perfect. Very comfortable, beautifully warm and cosy (we had a few wet and windy days as usual in the Lakes) and such a lovely setting.

We enjoyed our second stay at Ghyll Foot every bit as much as our first visit last year. The location is simply wonderful. It isn't large, but for us, with two dogs, it was perfectly comfortable. Its USP is having such a great selection of superb walks directly from the property, without any need to use the car.
