Located in the picturesque village of Glenridding in Cumbria, this charming cottage sleeps 4 people in 2 bedrooms and boasts a range of features including an open fire. The cottage has been refurbished while retaining its character, with flagstone floors, beamed ceilings, a wood-burning stove, and local timbers adding to its charm. The location of the cottage is truly stunning, with breathtaking views of Lake Ullswater, the Glencoyne valley, and Sheffield Pike, providing a tranquil and beautiful setting for guests to enjoy.
The accommodation includes an entrance porch, an open-plan living area with a wood-burning stove, a dining area, and a well-equipped kitchen. Upstairs, there is a double bedroom with views of the fells, a children's room with bunk beds, and a compact shower room. All essentials such as electricity, water, and bed linen are included, and there are night storage heaters for comfort. Guests can relax in the garden with a view of the lake, and there is on-street parking available on a private track.
Unfortunately, pets are not allowed at the cottage due to the owner's daughter's severe allergy to dogs. The access track to the cottages is unmade and approximately half a mile long, so guests are advised to drive carefully. The cottage is located in a rural area and on the waterfront, offering a peaceful retreat for those looking to enjoy the beauty of the North of England. Nearby attractions include the Armitt Museum and Gallery, Threlkeld Quarry and Mining Museum, Glenridding Sailing Centre, and Rookin House Activity Centre, providing plenty of opportunities for outdoor adventures and cultural experiences.
