Lying in the shadow of Blencathra, this cosy cottage has been charmingly updated to make a fantastic holiday base for couples and smaller families exploring the northern reaches of the Lake District. Offering bright and spacious accommodation for up to four guests, the property also has ample room for a pair of four-pawed companions to come along and help you discover this spellbinding region. Set in the friendly village of Threlkeld, this cheerful end-terrace getaway has been tastefully decorated and furnished, with welcoming interiors, slate flooring and a lovely wood burner, and is perfect for energetic walkers, climbers, cyclists and their pets.
Entering the cottage, the slate-tiled hallway leads through to the sweet and inviting lounge with its cosy wood burner and plenty of seating, making a lovely space to curl up and unwind in the evenings. A step leads up into the light and stylish kitchen which leads through to a sociable dining room. Heading upstairs you will find two bright and relaxing bedrooms: a cheery twin and a pretty king-size, along with a refreshing family bathroom across the landing. Stepping outside, the front garden has a lawn with space for pets to exercise, and a patio overlooking the village and providing a lovely suntrap for sitting back with a coffee or a good book. Please note the garden is not enclosed.
The historic village of Threlkeld is home to the pet-friendly Threlkeld Quarry and Mining Museum, and makes a fantastic base for climbing Blencathra (2.5 miles). Lying at the head of Derwentwater, the bustling town of Keswick (4 miles) has plenty of dog-welcoming pubs, cafes and attractions including The Puzzling Place and Derwent Pencil Museum. Dogs are also welcome to help you explore Hope Park, Catbells, the gardens at Mirehouse and Castlerigg Stone Circle, all within 10 miles.
