Overview
Property code: SZ588

Providing welcoming accommodation for four, this property offers stunning Lake District views and features exposed wooden beams, a picturesque courtyard garden and a warming wood burner.

The cottage enjoys a scenic spot in the Buttermere Valley between the peak of Grasmoor and the northern tip of Crummock Water. A haven for walkers, the area is known for its high fells and woodland rambles, with popular walks including the ridge walk from Buttermere to Rannerdale, the Corpse Road and tumuli walk, and the trail from Lanthwaite Wood to Crummock Water. The peaceful hamlet of Loweswater (1.5 miles) has a welcoming inn and is just a mile from the beautiful lake of Loweswater itself. Heading west, you can visit the historic town of Cockermouth (7.5 miles), or travelling east, the bustling town of Keswick (12 miles) has numerous attractions including Derwent Pencil Museum and Puzzling Place.

Entering this imaginatively updated barn conversion, the ground floor is occupied by a cosy, welcoming and spacious open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. Full of character, this charming space retains original features including exposed wooden beams and makes a wonderfully relaxing living space. The lounge area has plenty of seating, a TV and a warming wood burner, providing the ideal spot to unwind in the evening. Everyone can gather around the snug dining table to enjoy a meal which you can prepare in the stylish kitchen, which is equipped with an electric oven, separate hob, microwave and fridge/freezer. Upstairs, there are two fresh and bright bedrooms to choose from. Set on the half-landing, the delightful double bedroom has a vaulted ceiling, a skylight and a feature low window which once served as the barn doors. At the end of the landing is a second bedroom with a king-size bed, original beams and quirky cottage-style windows. The property also has a family bathroom complete with a shower over the bath and a WC.

Outside, a path weaves its way through the pretty garden, past the lawn and flower beds to a picnic table which makes a great spot for sitting back and taking in the stunning views of the surrounding fells. Off-road parking is available for two cars in the courtyard at the front of the cottage.

We had a good stay this year. The heating worked, the water was running and there were no leaks and the path has been re-done. The cottage was warm and welcoming on arrival and remained that way in spite of two named storms. Thank you.

Fabulous location for walking. Really comfortable stay and the washing machine/ drying machine was very useful. Two great pubs for cycling to or walking to nearby: The Wheatsheaf Inn at Lorton and the Kirkstile Inn near Loweswater. Buttermere was also only twenty minutes away by bike with a cafe and two pubs there. The cottage was very clean, well-Read moreequipped and cosy with comfortable beds. Hide

Lovely cottage in a wonderful location - close to the lake, a walk from Kilrstile Inn and a short drive to Buttermere. We had a wonderful stay.

This was our second visit same time of year. This small cottage has been tastefully converted and is in a wonderful location. Walks from the door up fells or down to the lake. A quick drive to Buttermere and Loweswater, and to the local shop in Lorton. This cottage is ideal for two but the tiny, but well equipped kitchen/dner is pretty tight if theRead morere are four. A problem with the heating and hot water was rectified on the day.. thanks. We would stay here again. Hide

We had an issue with the central heating on arrival however the Sally's Cottages rep resolved the problem within a couple of hours with temporary heating and had the central heating fixed the next day. Well done Andrew for the prompt and professional customer service.

Beautiful location and a lovely cottage. A wee bit dark inside with small windows and not much of a view of the surroundings from within the cottage. Well kept, well furnished and equipped. Beds a bit hard and plenty of opportunity to bang your head on low beams if youre tall. These are minor niggles though and we would definitely stay again.

Perched above Crummock Water, this cottage is in a wonderful position for lovely walks from the door. It was great to leave the car behind and explore the area on foot. There are fabulous views from less ambitious walks and we swam in Crummock Water, an extra treat (we were very lucky with the weather!). We felt comfortable in the cottage. It doesnRead more't have much of an outlook, but we enjoyed sitting in the garden. A problem we encountered was very quickly sorted out by the cottage caretaker. Hide

We had a wonderful week here and were able to do so many walks from the house. The weather helped as well! The house has everything you need including a washing machine (info not on website) . It is a quirky little cottage. The location was perfect so quiet but plenty of walking options from the house...to the Lake or the fells

A superbly located property, although with only restricted views from inside. Generally very well equipped but the small kitchen area is rather limited in scope. However an excellent walking base or a very quiet hideaway.
