Set in the quiet hamlet of Crooklands, this delightful ground-floor apartment within a historic, stone-built property offers the perfect base for couples and families to explore the Lake District National Park with their four-pawed pal.

At the end of a long walkies, step into the spacious yet cosy open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner at the heart of this holiday cottage to unwind weary walking toes and paws; there’s a special spot reserved for your pup beside the feature wood burner. Relax on the plush sofa as your canine companion snoozes at your feet before taming the growl of hungry tummies by whipping up some delicious treats in the contemporary country cottage-style kitchen. Boasting a lovely period, ornamental fireplace and doors opening onto a private suntrap patio, the light and airy double bedroom is the perfect peaceful spot to retire to. The delightful twin bedroom offers wonderful countryside views to enjoy. Accessed via the double bedroom, the private patio is the perfect spot to soak up some sunshine, whilst the shared lawn and riverside patio have been designed with relaxation in mind. There is private parking for one car.

The only sound you’ll hear as you explore the peaceful hamlet of Crooklands is your top dog’s collar chiming through the wind; peace and tranquillity are guaranteed. Being part of the glorious Lake District National Park, this is a great base for exploring the beautiful South Lakes. The gateway to the Lake District, take the lead to the vibrant market town of Kendal (7.5 miles) to walk up to the ruins of Kendal Castle, which offers tail-wagging views of the Lakeland fells and River Kent. Embark on a peaceful cruise along the tranquil waters of Lake Windermere aboard a traditional steamer with your canine companion from Bowness-On-Windermere, 18 miles away.

The apartment itself was very nice, excellent location for both the Yorkshire Dales & the Lakes, quiet, excellent off road parking, good food at the nearby pub, comfy beds, full supply of logs for the week, heating availalable when required, powerful shower and friendly locals. However, this was overshadowed by the following; mould on the bathroomRead more blind & shower grouting, the shower floor was dirty & had to be cleaned before we used it, smell of drains in the apartment, the TV was not smart & only had basic channels, there was no welcome pack even a basic item like milk fortunately we brought some with us. no spare liners for the kitchen bin & only one pan with a handle, the glass on the log burner was totally black & took half an hour to clean. We have stayed in many holiday lets & this falls below the standard we are used to. Hide
