Situated in the western part of the Lake District National Park, this holiday hideaway is made for reunions with family or friends in magnificent surroundings.

Sleeping four guests, this holiday cottage is tucked away on a private country lane leading to scenic Loweswater. Enjoy the surrounding views of farmland, reflecting lakeside, and a rolling landscape just waiting to be explored. Discover ancient woodland on your doorstep where you can spot deer, birdlife, and rare red squirrels. Shop in the Georgian market town of Cockermouth (8 miles) where you’ll find delicious regional food produce, independent shops, pubs and eateries. Head for the fairways at Cockermouth golf club, or enjoy family cycles in Whinlatter Forest (9.5 miles).

Step inside this historic holiday cottage where contemporary country style harmonises with original wooden beams and slate floors. The owners have given thoughtful attention to detail so you can enjoy the most comfortable of stays. Wander through the open-plan kitchen and dining area, where you can rustle up delicious feasts in the well-equipped kitchen with its electric oven and gas hob, fridge, dishwasher and beautiful slate floors; there’s also a handy washer/dryer. Gather around the oak dining table and enjoy home-cooked meals and family games. Sink into cosy seating in the living room after a long hike and catch up on the day by the TV and DVD player, and listen to music on the iPod dock by the warmth of the wood burner. Or, curl up with a good book in the kitchen window seat. When the day is done, you’ll find two stylish bedrooms upstairs with countryside views, a handsome king-size bedroom with forest views and a cosy twin bedroom with countryside views. A stylish family bathroom with a shower over the bath, and WC completes the accommodation.

Lovely location, and a well equipped comfortable and warm cottage.. 2 or 3 good walks from the cottage. Good views though the best hidden by the other property on the curtilage. Shopping in Cockermouth a delight and within easy reach by car. Good local pub - the Kirkstile Inn

We had an amazing stay at the cottage. The location is absolutely perfect. The views from the garden are absolutely stunning. Cottage was very clean and had everything we needed including a good supply of wood for the log burner. Many walks straight from the doorstep and plenty of Wainright fells close by to tick off the list. The dogs absolutely lRead moreoved their stay The only down side was the height of the fencing. We had to keep the dogs on a long lead in fear of them jumping over. We'll be back! Hide

Absolutely fantastic out of the way location. Really quiet with stunning views of Loweswater from the extended garden. Very comfortable and well equipped. Great walking from the cottage with no need to drive out. One of the few cottages we would certainly consider returning to.

What a great location, if you want peace and tranquility with stunning views and great local walks. This is the place. Don't expect to not have to travel if you need any stocks but it is close enough to shops and bigger villages.

Absolutley stunning location. Great views of the lake and mountains from our private picnic table. Lovely walks in all directions right from the front door. Our dogs were in heaven! Several walking routes to the famous Kirkstile Inn. Holme force waterfall is amazing, underappreciated, and only about a mile walk. If you love lakes, walking, wildlifeRead more, and evening drinks in the sun with a view to die for, this is the place for you! Hide

The cottage was in an absolutely perfect situation with views over Loweswater and the surrounding countryside. Footpaths right from the door mean you can leave the car behind and walk everywhere. The cottage was fully equipped and very comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
