A hiker’s haven nestled in the rambling country roads of the Lake District National Park, this bijou country cottage invites small families and their four-pawed pals to get stuck into endless walks. Beautifully presented with bright, cheerful decor, this single-storey cottage is an ideal choice for couples or families of four (with two kids), utilising the bunk bed in the double bedroom by prior arrangement. It’s pet-friendly, of course, with two canine companions invited to settle in, drift off, and dream of walkies and treats in the comfortable embrace of the open-plan living area.
Enjoying true tranquillity, this secluded cottage is located on a country road surrounded by open farmland. Thanks to grazing farm animals nearby, pets should always be kept on a lead when outside the property. You’ll be pleased to find a large, enclosed garden directly outside, providing a space for four-pawed pals to play to their heart’s content. Inside, the compact and comfortable cottage is split into two rooms and a separate shower room. The open-plan living area invites you to put your feet (and paws) up to watch TV or get stuck into a good board game. Next door, the bedroom is complete with a double bed and a bunk bed in the corner for use as needed.
Adventure-ready pups should be prepared to lead the way through endless footpaths and bridleways, heading toward tranquil lakes and towering hilltops nearby. Leave no stick unfetched on the banks of Crummock Water (4.5 miles) or Bassenthwaite Lake (7 miles) and enjoy far-reaching views of Cumbria from the vantage points atop Grisedale Pike (8.5 miles) or Grasmoor (5 miles). For those who prefer to stay closer to the ground, there are endless opportunities for sniffing out wildlife in the fabulous Whinlatter Forest (2.5 miles).
