With a warm welcome for couples, small groups and families alike, this traditional country cottage is perfect for those who want to unwind amongst the beautiful scenery of Cartmel Fell.
Set amidst rolling countryside, follow the public footpaths across the fields to the nearby hamlet of Bowland Bridge where there are two good pubs. Visit Sizergh Castle and Gardens, 10 miles away, or hop on an impressive steam engine at the Lakeside and Haverthwaite Railway, 7 miles away. Head to Bowness-on-Windermere, 7 miles away for an action-packed day on lake Windermere, with kayaks, SUPs and canoes available for hire. Kids will love visiting the aquarium at Newby Bridge (6 miles) and Beatrix Potter’s home at Far Sawrey, 14 miles. Avid hikers will find plenty to challenge them in the wider area, with climbs at Coniston Old Man, the Langdale Pikes and even Scafell Pike. Chase the waves and spot wildlife at the coastal peninsulas and discover shopping arcades, historic buildings, and a variety of eateries in the market town of Kendal, 10 miles away.
Exposed beams and traditional furnishings add a real sense of character to this home from home. Enter directly into the outer kitchen, ideal for hanging wet coats and boots and for wet dogs to be towelled off after a busy day exploring. Here you will find a fridge and a separate freezer, microwave, dishwasher and freestanding two ring electric hob. Off this room is the utility room with washing machine, ironing board, WC and washbasin. Spacious and open-plan, the main kitchen has a Rayburn cooker that is perfect for warming chilly toes and keeps the room cosy in the colder months. Gather to dine at the table before retiring to the living room to settle on the comfortable sofas with a film on the TV and the wood burner crackling. Upstairs there are three cosy bedrooms. The king-size bedroom has lovely views to the fells and crags; the bunk bedroom has adult-sized bunks; and the final room is a twin. There is a large, family bathroom.
Outside, the unenclosed, lawned garden will provide hours of fun for children and four legged friends, although not escape-proof for small and determined dogs. Enjoy splendid views over the surrounding countryside as you dine alfresco, a daily event not to be missed. There is off-road parking for up to three cars.
