Patterdale is just a mile from the bustling village of Glenridding at the foot of the Kirkstone Pass and is a fantastic starting point for a range of great walks, with local destinations including St Sunday Crag, Dove Crag, Brothers Water and Lanty’s Tarn (all within 5 miles). The magnificent lake of Ullswater is less than a mile to the north, providing a fantastic destination for a lakeside picnic, boat hire or for taking a cruise on a steamer. Attractions close to Ullswater include the Aira Force Waterfall (4 miles), Place Fell (0.5 miles) and Dunmallard Hill (9 miles). Heading to the eastern edge of the Lake District you can visit Dalemain Mansion (11 miles) and Lowther Castle (14 miles).

Stepping into this bright and spacious cottage, the welcoming entrance hallway leads you through to the pretty lounge. An ideal space to unwind in, the lounge has comfortable seating, Smart TV and a wood burner, making this a wonderful room for snuggling up and enjoying a favourite movie. Exploring further, the ground floor has a fully equipped kitchen which is a pleasure to cook in and is kitted out with a sociable central island unit, a double electric oven and hob, fridge/freezer, coffee machine and dishwasher. There’s also a delightful ground-floor bedroom: a king-size room with its own wood burner. Finally, the ground floor has a separate WC. Please note that, due to the age of the property, there are a few internal steps in the ground floor. Two staircases lead up to the first floor: one in the main hallway and one from the kitchen which takes you up to the dining room. This spacious room has been attractively furnished with a large dining table and antique dresser, providing an ideal spot for you to all gather together and enjoy a hearty meal. There’s also a delightful snug with plenty of seating, a perfect space for getting away and enjoying a good book in peace. There are two first-floor bedrooms: the fresh and light twin room has plenty of storage space and a beautiful feature fireplace, and the bright, tastefully decorated super-king-size room offers a Four-poster bed, feature fireplace, plenty of storage space and an en-suite bathroom complete with a shower over the bath and a WC. The first floor also has a stylish shower room complete with shower cubicle and WC.

Heading outside, there’s a small, but charming patio area with outdoor furniture, perfect for a morning coffee as you plan the day. Roadside parking is available, and there’s also a handy pay-and-display car park a few metres from the cottage.

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely cottage in the Patterdale. The property was beautifully presented, very well equipped, and finished with high-end appliances throughout. The log burner and underfloor heating made the whole place incredibly warm and comfortable, especially after long days out exploring the fells. There was plenty of space fRead moreor our group of six adults plus a dog, and everything felt thoughtfully arranged to make the stay easy and relaxing. The welcome basket was a really lovely touch and very much appreciated on arrival. The location was perfect, within walking distance of lots of beautiful fells, as well as the Inn on the Lake in Glenridding, where we spent a lovely evening. The pub just across the road, The White Lion, was another highlight, they were very welcoming and accommodating. We arrived late on Friday night and were still able to enjoy a delicious meal there, which made our first evening stress-free. All in all, a fantastic stay. Wed happily return and highly recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a comfortable and well-equipped getaway in the Lakes. Hide

The cottage was amazing! Very quirky and had literally everything we needed. The pub over the road was really friendly with good food and the shops and pubs in Glenridding were great too. We walked to the lake and had a boat trip and got the bus to Penrith. All very accessible. Beautiful cottage, beautiful views, would stay again.

Very well equipped kitchen with utensils Id be happy to have in my own kitchen, and not naff and tatty ones. Beautiful space, good layout, fantastic location (multiple walks from front door eg up Helvellyn, Place Fell, Angle Tarns etc). Mattress firmness can be improved and parking is something to be aware of but otherwise a lovely stay.

The cottage was very clean, pleasant and confortable.

Obviously, this is outside the owner's control and the property may be a good fit if not bothered by this. Hide
