Traditional Lakeland cottage, with stone feature walls, beams and lots of quirky features, the perfect hideaway for a couple discovering the Lakes.

Step back in time and stay in the picturesque village of Uldale, experiencing a slower pace of life and hanging your hat in this charming 17th-century cottage. Perfectly appointed for two (along with one four-pawed pal), the property offers an ideal bolthole for getting away from metropolitan life and admiring the wonders of the Lake District. Whether you're sat in the window box with a morning coffee or enjoying an evening glass of wine on the garden bench, the views of the surrounding valleys and fells promise awe-inspiring entertainment that you won't find elsewhere.

Step inside to find a cosy space that has been maintained with plenty of original features including wooden fittings, sturdy beams and exposed brickwork at the walls. The open-plan kitchen/diner/lounge is a fantastic space for two to unwind, complete with armchairs for sitting alongside one another and enjoying Sky Q on the Smart TV. Traditionalists will jump at the chance to cook a meal on the Aga, whilst an electric oven and hob are on standby just in case. Climb steep cottage stairs to find a charming and completely unique bedroom complete with a reading nook and single bed sat atop a mezzanine floor. The bedroom itself is equipped with a comfortable king-size bed, ideal for catching those forty winks.

Step out and instantly explore Lowthwaite Fell (2 miles) and Binsey (2.5 miles), both providing remarkable views which will stay with you for a lifetime. Discover the area’s nearest lake, Bassenthwaite, just 4.5 miles from home and be sure to stop by The Lakes Distillery (5 miles) to pick up something enjoyable for the evening. From here you can also access Cockermouth (10 miles), a fantastic town that is steeped in literary history and offers plenty of quality pubs and restaurants.

Lovely cottage in a quiet rural farming village a short drive from Keswick. Location is great because it is out of the tourist hustle and bustle but all the attractions of the Lake District are in easy reach. A bus goes through the village if you don't have a car. Comfortable well-appointed, and homely accommodation with everything you could want. Read moreReally helpful hosts who were very responsive to our queries and who kept us updated about things.

We had a lovely stay in your beautifully cosy cottage. We loved the warmth of the Aga especially as we arrived rather late at night. It was very peaceful and we were able to relax straight away. It was very well equipped and everything was easy to use. Altogether a blissful few days.

Lovely little cottage on the northern edge of the Lake District. Perfect if you want to explore Bassenthwaite and the nothern fells. The cottage is perfect for a couple and a dog. The owner is very friendly and helpful, and the cottage had some great leaflets with walks, including a great booklet for walks with dogs in the area.
