Cottage in Cumbria in Penrith, Cumbria

Description
Nestled among fells between the southern tip of Ullswater and Kirkstone Pass, find many spots to explore close to home. A 3.5 mile trip will bring you to Glenridding at the bottom of Ullswater where you can hop on a steamer with your canine companion in tow. Jump on and off and explore the National Trust s Aira Force waterfall which sits amongst ancient woodland. If you re a keen cyclist, Kirkstone Pass is a great place to visit, the heart of which is 4.5 miles away. The strenuous climbing sections are rewarded with spectacular mountain views and you can enjoy something to eat at the inn near the summit. If you re into completing Wainwrights, this is the perfect home for you! Head straight from your door and onto the 7.5 mile Dovedale Horseshoe walk. Sitting on a working farm, this Grade I listed cottage is full of country charm and character. Head through the courtyard and into the kitchen which boasts a magnificent view and is brimming with farmhouse charm. Find a large electric range oven with ceramic hobs, a microwave and fridge/freezer, and a dishwasher and washing machine. Make use of the handy utility room where you can find the tumble dryer, iron and ironing board. Dine together at the table before heading over to the inviting lounge where you can spend sociable evenings relaxing in front of the open fire. This dual aspect room is flooded with natural light and adorned with local art. Play board games and enjoy a competitive night, put on your favourite TV programme, or choose a DVD for a film night on the sofa.
