Cottage In Cumbria, Kentmere

Lake District. Sleeps up to 2

This spectacular area of natural beauty is unsurprisingly popular among keen walkers, with wonderful mountain, valley, and lakeside routes on the doorstep. From the hamlet of Kentmere, a track leads to a splendid collection of mountain tops including Thornthwaite Crag, Froswick, High Street, Mardale Ill Bell, and Harter Fell. 3 miles from the cottage is the village of Staveley, which boasts typical Lakeland stone buildings, the Rivers Kent and Gowan, a beautiful church, and a selection of shops and inns. Also within easy reach is iconic Windermere (8 miles), with its literary history, bustling centre, and beautiful lake, while Kendal (9 miles) offers larger stores, supermarkets, art galleries, a theatre, and a cinema. This delightful detached cottage is one of three properties huddled in this peaceful valley location. Leave your muddy boots and coats in the small boot room area before continuing through to the farmhouse style kitchen. With a large dining table, Aga exposed beams, and quirky vintage touches, this is a charming room for enjoying candle lit suppers. After meals, step through to the inviting sitting room where an inglenook fireplace with roaring wood burner, TV and DAB radio, stylish sofas, and cosy rugs await. From the small hall, stairs lead up to the king size bedroom, which features a Victorian cast iron bed, antique furniture, and spectacular valley views through a charming sash window. The compact yet stylish bathroom can be found next door. Outside, there is a private garden with outdoor furniture and countryside views.
