The Bothy at Crosthwaite is a charming rural escape located in the peaceful Lyth Valley in Kendal, Cumbria, in the North of England. This unique getaway is perfect for couples looking to relax and explore the Lake District, with its abundance of gastro pubs and eateries. The Bothy is a 300-year-old stone building that was originally the kitchen for the main house, featuring a cosy open-plan space with a wood-burning stove, antique furnishings, and a mezzanine bedding area.
Completely self-contained, the Bothy offers a fantastic base for exploring the Lake District and surrounding regions. Guests can enjoy a cosy lounge with a wood-burning stove, a charming shower room with locally made toiletries, and a mezzanine with a comfortable double bed. While there are no cooking facilities, guests can enjoy local takeaways or dine at nearby award-winning pubs and cafes. The property also includes one allocated parking space, secure cycle storage, and an outside seating area.
Located in the picturesque village of Crosthwaite, the Bothy is a perfect location for a quiet and serene retreat while still being only a 15-minute drive to Windermere, England's largest lake and the heart of the Lake District National Park. Guests can explore the local walks and fells from their doorstep or visit nearby attractions like Blackwell, The Arts & Crafts House, and The Quaker Tapestry Museum & Exhibition. While Windermere and Oxenholme railway stations are within a short distance, having your own vehicle is recommended for exploring the rural location.
