2 Bed in Grasmere (oc-lr138)

Set in an enviable spot beside the River Rothay and just a short stroll from the charming village of Grasmere, this characterful cottage offers a quiet getaway for couples and small families exploring the Lake District together. From the doorstep, follow the waterside path around Grasmere Lake for an easy loop, or tackle the Fairfield Horseshoe (3 miles) for a full-day hike with sweeping fell vistas. In the village centre, step into Wordsworth's former home of Dove Cottage, then pick up a warm parcel from the famous Grasmere Gingerbread Shop. For a change of scenery, Ambleside and Windermere are both within 9 miles for boat trips, more scenic walks, and plenty of welcoming cafes, while Keswick (13 miles) makes a lively day out for markets and Derwentwater walks.

Forming one of four unique properties hidden down a private track, this light-filled Lakeland cottage welcomes you with its stone exterior and breathtaking surrounding scenery. Step inside and immediately notice how light and airy the rooms are thanks to the many windows and skylights. Combined with modern comforts, the original features include exposed ceiling beams, setting the scene for a characterful stay. On entry, be greeted by a cheery kitchen which boasts everything needed for cooking up Cumbrian feasts, which you can enjoy in the lounge/diner or alfresco in the patio garden. The wonderful lounge/diner forms the social heart of the home, with ample soft seating and a Smart TV set beneath exposed oak beams and beside wide windows framing far-reaching views. When it's time to call it a night, climb the stairs to the upper floor and choose from two whitewashed bedrooms: a master double with an en-suite shower room, and a cosy twin which makes use of the family bathroom.

Spill outside as often as possible to relax in the tranquil patio garden. This scenic spot boasts dramatic views of the surrounding fells and invites al fresco tipples and meals at the outdoor seating. You'll also find private parking for two cars, making your arrival and day trips easy.
