A warm welcome awaits you and your dog at this picturesque cottage in Bouth. Providing a gateway to some of the country’s most rewarding hikes and incredible scenery, your furry friend will be in doggy heaven discovering the wealth of new sights and scents. Throw sticks and trace paths in nearby Fell Foot Park before heading back home to collapse into a contented stupor and watch as night throws its cloak over the views outside.
Sleeping four people over two bedrooms, this rural retreat enjoys cosy interiors inflected with rustic charm. Unzip and unclip in the hall before padding over the floor to the open-plan living areas. For days and nights at home, the lounge with exposed beams is a cosy cocoon furnished with plump seating, a wood burner-effect electric fire and a TV. Take the weight off your legs and flick through the channels as your canine chum dreams of tomorrow’s adventures. When your tums begin to rumble, the light and airy kitchen houses all you could need, and there is a dining area too. For extra convenience, there are storage and laundry facilities in the garage (with internal access) – great for post-walk clean-ups. When night time calls, there is a double bedroom with an en-suite shower room next to the lounge, whilst on the lower floor, there is another double bedroom and a family bathroom with a shower over the bath. For little ones, a small dressing room can house a cot.
Lap up the sunshine in the terraced garden or head further and delve beneath the surface of the gorgeous Cartmel Peninsula. To make a splash, drive the 6 miles to Coniston Water or the 4 miles to England’s largest natural lake, Windermere. For a local bite to eat, the dog-friendly village pub is only 300 metres away.
