Description
Attractive cottage located in the heart of the small village of Satterthwaite, with its popular pub and with easy access to walks in Grizedale Forest.
This lovely cottage, with its quirky features, is situated in the perfect location for those who want to spend their holiday exploring the great outdoors. Grizedale Forest is right on the doorstep, and the forest s visitor centre is just over a mile away, offering cycling routes and walks for all abilities, a renowned sculpture trail, children s play area, cafe, and a Go Ape climbing centre. A walk up the nearby Carron Crag gives some of the best views over Coniston and the Old Man. In the opposite direction is the delightful Rusland Valley. Both Lake Windermere and Coniston Water are a short drive from the cottage, where guests can try a range of waterside activities, from pleasurable boat trips, to windsurfing lessons. Enjoy a gentle stroll around the picturesque Tam Hows or for the hardier fell walker, the majestic and rugged Langdales are also only a short drive away. The village of Satterthwaite, with its village pub, is one of the Lake District s secret, yet accessible hideaways and a romantic getaway. A short walk takes you to a Children's play area in the village as well as tennis court (bookable and payable separately). The front door of this property opens directly into the lovely and cosy lounge, with its comfortable seating, modern inset wood burner, TV/DVD and Freesat Wi Fi.
