Contemporary in style yet retaining its rustic charm, this traditional, stone cottage is in the heart of the favoured Lake District village of Grasmere.
Nestled at the foot of breathtaking fells like Helm Crag and Silver How, this rustic property is the perfect bolthole for ramblers. Sleeping up to four guests and one pup, groups will delight in the many nature trails and scenic dog walking routes moments from the doorstep. Begin your day with the Brackenfell and Alcock Tarn circular walk, which starts and finishes in Grasmere village and climbs through the spectacular woods with unforgettable views.
Leave your boots and dog lead in the spacious hallway before following your four-pawed pal into the living/dining room. As your pup settles himself in front of the glowing electric fire, why not take a moment to rest on one of the comfy seats and admire the wild countryside views from the window? When lunchtime calls, make your way to the modern kitchen to rustle up a tasty snack for your group and a bowl of crunchy dog treats for yours truly. Dig into your meal at the wooden dining table in the lounge or head outdoors into the small patio area for a spot of al fresco dining at the bistro table. As the evening closes in, take your pick of two beautiful bedrooms to spend the night in: one king-size with stunning views of fields and fells and one double bedroom with its own en-suite WC.
The picturesque village of Grasmere is brimming with dog-friendly pubs, cafes and restaurants; simply walk down the road from the property to enjoy a scrumptious dinner. The bustling market town of Keswick (12 miles) is also worth exploring if you fancy an afternoon of retail therapy. Lace up your walking boots for a circular scenic ramble with your dog around Easedale Tarn (2.5 miles) or head to Lake Windermere (13 miles) for a wild swim in the water.
