Cottage in Cumbria

Holiday Rental Description

Escape to this Lakeland sanctuary, where two guests and their faithful, furry friend can lose themselves in the beauty of their surroundings. Find the one bedroom cottage, which shares a garden with its neighbour, is an idyllic base from which to go hiking and cycling. Make the 2 mile walk down to impressive Aira Force, then catch one of the famous Ullswater steamers. Disembark in Pooley Bridge for a cup of tea and slice of cake. To browse in independent shops, boutiques and market stalls, head to Keswick or Penrith, both about 11 miles away. Find cafes, restaurants and pubs in both lively hubs: hire a boat on Derwentwater from Keswick and see the castle ruins in Penrith. Wander into this charming cottage from the back and find yourselves in the light filled lounge/diner, with its sloping ceilings. Settle down on the comfortable seating to watch TV or perhaps a DVD, chosen from the collection here. Help yourself to a book from the shelves if you prefer. Head through into the kitchen to prepare dinner with the fresh, local produce you have found on your trips out. The kitchen has an electric oven and halogen hobs, microwave and fridge. Carry dinner through to eat together at the table. As night falls, make your way through to the bright bedroom, with its king size, four poster bed and en suite bathroom, which comes with a bath, with handheld shower, WC and handbasin. Bask out in the sunshine on spring and summer days in the garden, which has a summer house and is shared with another cottage. Look out for wildlife and take in the views. There is parking at the cottage.
