A cosy, very comfortable stone cottage with fine views across the valley, just a couple of miles from the southern tip of Ullswater

Step into a beautifully designed living room with a modern wood-burner, plenty of soft seating, local art and pretty fabrics. Much use has been made of natural materials (slate, wood, wool) and the feeling is one of calm – although there are other buildings around you, you're not overlooked. The kitchen has all the gear you might need and there's room for two to work together – you're also left a welcome pack of fresh flowers, homemade cake and a bottle of prosecco.

Downstairs to a very attractive bedroom with a Harrison pocket-sprung mattress (this king can be made up as twins) and designer lighting. The gleaming next-door bathroom has fun Scion towels and Pure Lakes handmade soaps and lotions.

Step out for wonderful walks in glorious countryside, stride up fells for even longer views, explore market towns, take boat trips on the lake. If the weather isn't playing you can hunker down in the warm, listen to music or watch a film.

Local points of interest from Helen Griffiths:

Punti d'interesse locali da
Helen Griffiths:

  • Park you car and just walk from the door, as you are right in the heart of the Lake District National Park with Helvellyn, Fairfield and The Ullswater Way all on your doorstep. There are books and guides aplenty in the cottage and we are on hand to advise.
  • Fancy Wild Swimming? Helen can help you find some lovely spots in mountain tarns, or sheltered bays on Ullswater which is just 1.5 miles from the cottage.
  • The bustling town of Ambleside is just 15 minutes drive over the most dramatic (but recently upgraded and re-surfaced) Kirkstone Pass. It has a great independent cinema with vegetarian restaurants attached, plus cafes and Michelin starred restaurants.
  • Patterdale is a beautiful valley - just off the busier central drag, it is the perfect place to escape & breathe. Rural life moves slowly and you will love the immersion in nature, the rhythm of the farming year and chorus of birdsong and baa-ing sheep!
  • A foodie tour would start with picking up a gorgeous sourdough loaf from Lovingly Artisan and a freshly roasted coffee at Rinaldo's both near Kendal, then on to Levens Hall for a wander around the atmospheric topiary garden prior to soup and a pint at Heft
  • For a relaxed evening meal try The Yan at Grasmere, The Horse and Farrier at Dacre or our favourite cafe in Ambleside: Force is open weekend evenings in the summer for delicious pizza on the covered terrace which has great views. Or go for lunch - it's fab
