Escape to this marvellous location on the cusp of Penrith and the Lake District National Park for exciting outdoor adventures. This property is well suited to small families, and with up to four waggy-tailed visitors welcome, your entire pack can join in on the fun. Your pup will have great fun padding through the countryside, but the vast expanse of shared grounds offer a walled orchard, huge lawns, woodland and even a play area to explore too - just keep an eye on Rover when the resident pigs wander by.
High ceilings with wooden beams blend seamlessly with the country-cottage decor, creating a cosy ambience for spending quality time together in the open-plan living space. Recline on the sofas and watch TV or settle down at the table for a feast whipped up in the kitchen. There’s a handy shower room for soothing tired limbs before retiring for the night in the king-size bedroom that boasts ample space for a basket or two. The youngest guests will adore the children’s room with its quirky bunk beds and choice of books. Scamper down the steps to find the gravel garden with its mature shrubbery and flowerbeds, taking a seat to admire the views and listen to the birdsong.
Walking isn’t the only activity in store; golf, castle-roaming, wildlife spotting and water-based adventures are all possibilities too. Penrith has a wealth of eateries, shops and interesting places to visit with Fido in tow, but you’ll also be within 7 miles of the Lake District National Park if you really want to connect with the great outdoors. The nearest lake is Ullswater, and you can venture to Pooley Bridge (7.5 miles) or choose Dockray ready to sniff out the Aira Force waterfalls (9 miles).
