A lovely, restored country cottage with lots of character and original features, with a sunny enclosed garden overlooking open countryside, perfect wildlife and bird watching.

Head to the Lake District and make yourself at home in this cheerful cottage, situated on the brink of Ullswater and boasting endless walks from its very doorstep. Happily sleeping six guests and one dog, the property ideally lends itself to any family or group of friends hoping to enjoy a long-awaited holiday together. Ready for stays come rain or shine, you’re welcome to cosy up by the wood burner after a hearty meal enjoyed indoors or spill out into the enclosed garden for al fresco evenings and the chance to admire the stunning countryside views that begin on your very doorstep.

Cheerfully presented with fresh white walls, a contemporary décor and charming original features including sturdy oak beams, this restored country cottage promises a delightful stay for all. Local sandstone flooring can be found throughout the ground floor, a handy addition when arriving home with muddy boots or wet paws. Step into the utility room to leave outdoor wear to one side before getting comfortable in the lounge or dining room. Along with the wood burner in the lounge, a Smart TV offers plenty in way of entertainment for evenings spent inside. Head up to the first floor to explore three equally inviting bedrooms, one of which is presented with a luxury en-suite with impressive countryside views.

Rent a boat or embrace thrilling water sports on the calm shores of Ullswater (0.5 miles), admiring the impressive mountain views that sit beside this stunning body of water. On its banks, the village of Pooley Bridge is complete with a tearoom and pub less than 0.5 miles from home, the perfect last port of call after a day of hiking or bike riding. Let your body rest and recharge with calming days out at Lowther Castle and Gardens (5 miles) or the Dalemain Mansion (2.5 miles) nearby.

We had an amazing Easter break at Butt cottage, in what is a really scenic and amazing area. The cottage is spacious, yet cozy and the fire was a great treat after a long day on the fells. Really comfortable beds, great showers and everything you could want when away from home.

One of the best cottages we have stayed in. Wonderfully comfortable beds and a huge bath to return to after a day out walking. Super clean and well maintained. Enclosed garden was great for our dog. Perfect location, quiet yet near shops and pubs. We hope to return.

Lovely cottage and although only a minutes walk from the centre of everything was very quiet. Spotlessly clean. All 3 bedrooms are good sizes and the en-suites large and showers powerful. Kitchen was very well equipped and the utility space was great for leaving dog stuff, coats and shoes and can imagine in wet weather a great addition. The garden Read moreis very secure for dogs. Lastly the welcome hamper was a lovely surprise and bottle of fizz much appreciated. Hide

The property has been beautifully renovated and is in a stunning location. The pictures on the website are a little flattering as the property is much smaller than depicted.

We booked Butt house for my wifes 50th. Four of us. The cottage is in a great location, extremely well equipped and beautifully decorated. The stone floors with underfloor heating a lovely touch. I suppose the only small point to make. Although the sleeping and dining facilities are accommodated for 6 the lounge area would be a tight squeeze for 6.Read more Apart from that I cannot fault this fabulous cottage. Highly recommended.

Butt Cottage is in a fantastic position in lovely Pooley Bridge. Renovated to a high standard and homely. We immediately felt relaxed. The enclosed garden is an added bonus , especially if you have children or a dog. Looking out at the field in the sunshine was wonderful at any time of day. We would definitely return.
