This idyllic rural retreat is perfect for small families and couples looking to get away from it all. Take long walks in the surrounding fells and enjoy day trips to Lake District attractions such as Windermere and Coniston Water.

A charming Lakeland cottage that’s full of character and offers a perfect, peaceful retreat for a family of four, or group of friends, and a canine companion. Situated in acres of farmland with an abundance of walks from the doorstep, you can spend days sniffing out adventures, before curling up in front of the log burner or enjoying an al fresco meal in the tranquil garden.

Enter this chocolate-box home through a pretty sunroom, which has space to store walking boots and dog gear, as well as some seating where you can enjoy a morning coffee and plan the days ahead. Rustle up delicious breakfasts, lunches, and dinners in the colourful kitchen/diner which has everything you need to make tasty meals, and a wood burner to keep the dining area warm. A step down from the kitchen, the bright and airy lounge is flooded with light and has comfortable seating and another wood burner. Upstairs are the two double bedrooms, both have lovely countryside views and plenty of storage space, as well as the two bathrooms, one with a shower and the other containing a bath. Escape the hustle and bustle and dine alfresco in the fabulous garden, which has a large lawn and is lined by mature trees. Let the dog explore as you admire the far-reaching views.

Situated just outside the sleepy hamlet of Oxen Park, this property is surrounded by rolling countryside where you can go mutts exploring on foot and paw. Spend time hiking through moorland or take a trip to the fabulous Grizedale Forest (5 miles) where you can take part in plenty of outdoor activities, or simply soak up the breathtaking views. Visit the country’s largest lake, Coniston Water (8 miles) where you can hop on a dog-friendly lake cruise, or simply have a ball on a waterside stroll.

We really enjoyed staying at Low Longmire Cottage. It was as so unbelievably peaceful and tranquil. Probably less than 10 cars went by all week. A great base for loads of activities in the Lakes plus lots of opportunities for local walks and nearby pubs. For supplies, Booths supermarket is in Ulverston and is such a fantastic shop.

Walked ScafeRead morell Pike and Kentmere Horseshoe. Did some paddle boarding and swimming at Fell Foot. Then relaxed back at the cottage! Hide

The owner of Low Longmire Cottage, has supplied the property with 'special additions' not commonly found in holiday lets. For example electric blankets to keep us senior citizens warm in bed during the cold winter months and razors and shaving foam for the absent minded male guests.

Had a wonderful 2-week stay in this beautiful and quiet location. The cottage is comfortably appointed and the perfect size. The modern upgrades to this 250+ year property provide a touch of luxury whilst relaxing in the quaint and timeless atmosphere of the South Lakes countryside. Highly recommended.

Low Longmire is a charming cottage inside and out with a character all of its own. We had the pleasure of watching the garden burst into bloom while we were there and the new nest box was being used by blue tits who were feeding chicks. The quality of the fixtures and fittings and equipment was very good with a quirky mixture of modern and antique Read morefurniture. The views of mountain and field, woods and flowers from every window plus the peace and tranquillity made our holiday perfect. Hide
