A spacious modern property, offering a great base for family and friends to explore the Lakes and Cumbrian coastline. With a couple of country pubs on your doorstep.

A patchwork of green fields surround this beautiful property based in the idyllic village of Ennerdale Bridge in the Lake District National Park. This bright and spacious retreat is perfect for groups of up to six guests and two dogs keen to walk the many wild, rugged and scenic footpaths in and around the Cumbrian Mountains.

Let your pup lead the way into this delightful ‘upside down’ house. On entering, you will soon discover the two delightful ground floor bedrooms: a pretty double with garden access and a twin room with zip-and-link beds that can be made up into a king-size. Upstairs, a marvellous open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner welcomes you. The wow-factor feature of this generous space is the bi-folding doors that open out onto a balcony with unforgettable countryside views. Relax in front of the cosy wood burner as your canine companion rests his head on your legs. When you’re feeling peckish, the well-equipped kitchen has everything you need to whip up a meal. Sit at the farmhouse-style dining table as your pup waits patiently by your feet for a treat. Alternatively, why not dine outside on the balcony and soak in the scenery? A third bedroom can be found just off the kitchen with a double bed and an en-suite with a freestanding bath.

Experience a dog-friendly ramble up Catbells fell. Start your trek at Hawse End, 23 miles away, and take in the outstanding scenery of mountains and lakes as you make your climb. The coastal town of St Bees can be reached in 8 miles and has a long sandy beach where your faithful friend can stretch its paws.

We really enjoyed staying at Thornside Cottage. The space worked really well for us, and the location is great. Being right next door to The Gather cafe was a bonus! There were many walks close by and Ennerdale Water itself only a 25 minute walk. The village of Ennerdale Bridge is peaceful and we felt very safe walking the dog in the evenings. We hRead moread dinner at The Shepherds Arms a few times as well which had great food Hide

Beautifully clean and comfortable cottage in fantastic surroundings. We certainly didnt want for anything. The Fox and Hounds right on your doorstep and the Gather very useful and the people extremely friendly. Would definitely stay again.

This is a lovely property, well presented, spotlessly clean, well equipped (sharp kitchen knives - a real rarity in rental properties!) and in a fabulous situation both scenically and in respect of its closeness to a super village shop / cafe and excellent pub. We had a very comfortable 2 week stay. The owners were approachable, helpful and found aRead more solution when the washing machine broke down. Hide
