This cosy cottage is full of character and makes a fabulous family holiday home, set in a delightful spot between the mountains and the sea in the picturesque Lake District village of Gosforth.
Escape to the Western Lakes and lead a dog’s life from the comfort of this charming cottage that’s perfect for four humans and two hounds. The historic village of Gosforth is in an excellent position for exploring the Cumbrian Coastline and the Lake District in equal measure, scampering along the dog-friendly shores of Seascale Beach (3 miles), or taking a quiet turn around Wastwater to soak up the views. Weary from your escapades, the roaring wood burner awaits in your cosy abode, best enjoyed with all your favourite treats.
Homely and welcoming with all the contemporary conveniences you need for a relaxing stay, your accommodation is well suited to families and friendship groups. Cast aside your muddy outdoor gear in the porch and move through to the kitchen/diner for family meals, not forgetting to slip the waggy-tailed members a few tasty morsels. The lounge is the heart of the home with its snug furniture and crackling wood burner, and there is SkyTV and a DVD for entertainment. Upstairs, the children will love the bunk bedroom whilst the adults choose between the two remaining bedrooms after a long soak in the bathroom. Rover will have a ball in the partially enclosed garden while you sip drinks on the patio, and there’s off-road parking for one large car or two smaller ones.
Discover the marvellous landscape from your doorstep, embracing the thrill of the rolling fells and mountainous landscape that surrounds peaceful Wastwater (6.5 miles) and Ennerdale (13.5 miles). Scafell Pike beckons for the most adventurous of guests 15 miles away, but you’ll also have the summits of Pillar (19 miles) and Great Gable (9.5 miles) too. The coast is 3 miles away and has even more pup-approved delights to discover, plus the views across the water are mesmerising.
