Step inside this luxurious, charm-laden cottage. From the entrance hall, where you will find the convenient ground-floor WC and laundry area, head on through to discover high-quality accommodation that blends original and contemporary features beautifully. Emerge in the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, where rustic, exposed stone and timberwork add a sense of history and warmth. Take a seat on the sumptuous sofa to flick through the channels on the Smart TV. Stoke up the wood burner in here on autumn and winter evenings or open the patio doors to the garden in the warmer months. The generous kitchen/diner area also has an elegant country appeal. Here you can prepare the fresh Cumbrian produce you have bought in town, then sit down to dine in style. When you are ready to close your eyes for the night, make your way up to the first floor of the cottage, where you will find your impressive bedrooms, both with chic en-suite shower rooms, plenty of storage, and Smart TVs. There is a king-size and a super-king-size room to choose from, each with a beautiful view. The super-king-size has a bed that can also be made up as a twin by prior agreement, plus a freestanding bath for long, bubble baths.
Relax together out in the sunny courtyard garden, lounge in the hot tub or dine under blue skies and take in the far-reaching views. Bring a four-legged friend and let them wander about to their heart’s content. Unwind on the comfy communal seating area by the pond, a true haven for relaxation. This cottage has parking for two cars.
