Dating back to 1880, this former farm worker’s cottage is situated in one of the most beautiful Lake District valleys, with Lake Ullswater just a mile away for lake cruises and boat hire. The property has been lovingly restored with 21st century comforts in mind, providing a charming holiday home for those eager to break away from their normal routines and discover the delights of the Lake District. The cottage stands in its own enclosed garden bounded beyond the wall on one side by the tumbling waters of Deepdale Beck and with views to the hills around. The split-level interior has its entrance into the kitchen/diner, equipped with all the necessary appliances for a short break, including an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer and even a dishwasher so you won’t have to lift a finger when washing up! Several steps up lead into the cosy, beamed sitting room with pitched ceiling and feature stone wall, housing an alluring woodburning stove which is sure to be used in the winter months. When it comes to catching some sleep, there are two bedrooms to choose from, including a double with an en-suite shower room and a twin on the lower floor, which are both attractively furnished with carefully chosen colours and fabrics. Step outside and get some fresh air in the enclosed garden, providing a tranquil spot to relax on the seating whilst taking in the fine views of the Hartsop Fells. From the door there are numerous rambles to be explored, particularly along the high fells of Helvellyn, St. Sunday Crag and the High Street Ridge, or for easier routes then you can walk around the shores of Ullswater and stop off for lunch in the quaint villages of Howtown and Watermillock. Take yourself deeper into the Lakelands and visit the ever-popular towns of Ambleside, Bowness and Windermere, each boasting plenty of family attractions to keep you busy. Beckside Studio promises a Lake District escape that will inspire memories for all.
