Situated a few hundred yards from the centre of Coniston village in a quiet cul-de-sac location, this spacious four-bedroom home is ideal for those who love to explore.

The cooks of the group will enjoy rustling up a meal for everyone in the spacious kitchen which also has a sociable breakfast bar, perfect when grabbing a quick snack. The adjoining dining room is a wonderful space for family meals and special occasions, with French doors which again lead onto the terrace. The four restful bedrooms are all located on the first floor, each tastefully decorated to create a relaxing atmosphere. Outside, enjoy some al fresco dining on the decked terrace, which spans the length of the house, while the dogs and children explore the large lawn beyond.

The pubs, shops and restaurants of Coniston are a short walk away. Pull on your walking boots and grab the dog leads for a day of wandering through Grizedale Forest (7.5 miles) which has woodland hikes and sculpture trails. Explore the area from the water by hiring a boat or canoe from the village’s boating centre and heading out across the lake.

The pictures really don't do this cottage justice. The cottage has a great warm feeling and is so well equipped- we needed for nothing. The garden is a fantastic addition to the cottage offering an enclosed, secure and clean place for children to play. We would recommend and hopefully return next year.

Lovely comfortable and well equipped house. Although there were only four of us this house is spacious enough for its capacity which is eight (a rarity in my experience). We had the heaviest snow dump in 30 years and we were unable to use the car for several days so the village centre location was a real bonus. The owner checked in with us to see iRead moref we were OK and to check if the house was warm enough (if was). Only small gripe was that we were left with only two half used toilet rolls. Hide

As always a stunning location. The proximity to the town facilities is second to none. The property is immaculately presented inside and has amazing facilities for families or groups. Having the utility / boot room is an added bonus as its so good to be able to leave wet clothing and muddy boots where the rest of the house isnt affected. Being dog Read morefriendly, the secure rear garden is a bonus and Im sure that on a warm summers evening the decking would be an absolute treat. Hide

Family get together which we booked almost 3 years ago. Being those years older and now with health issues, the object of my exercise was to walk up Old Man Of Coniston. The weather was against us as we couldn't even see the top most days. Made it half way up and decided against it and headed for the pub instead. Pubs are struggling to get chefs anRead mored staff so mostly only doing drinks. Shops shut fairly early too. Everything about the house has already been said, it's fab with no complaints. Hide
