Description

Be welcomed into the sitting room, where you can look forward to curling up on the plush leather sofa and catching up on your favourite series on the TV, as the woodburning stove crackles nearby. Rustle up delicious home-cooked meals in the well-equipped kitchen, with handy dishwasher ensuring cleaning up is a breeze. Pop open a bottle of fizz and settle down around the dining table to tuck-in to the fruits of your labour, as you toast to a wonderful holiday. Continue the evening out on the enclosed patio, where you can soak up the remainder of the afternoon sunshine as your canine companion stretches their legs. Indulge in a blissful bubble bath with your favourite book as your towel warms on the nearby heated towel rail. As the evening grows darker, pop on fresh pyjamas and choose from one of two tastefully decorated bedrooms to catch your rest in, a double and a twin. Take advantage of the convenient external utility, which houses a washing machine, so you don’t have to bring your whole wardrobe with you! Explore the local village, which has everything you could need right on your doorstep, including an excellent selection of pubs, restaurants and tearooms for those evenings where you don’t feel like cooking. Just a few minutes walk from the property, you’ll find Ullswater with team rooms in the village, the steamer and the fells. Pooley Bridge is also home to the impressive St Paul’s Church which is worth a visit, as well as the River Eamont, which flows along the village and is perfect for a scenic walk with your loved ones. Just a short drive away is Penrith, home to the remarkable 14th-century ruins of its former castle and the Penrith and Eden Museum, where you can delve into the area’s rich history. Your inner historian will marvel at the variety of historical landmarks on offer, including King Arthur’s Round Table, Mayburgh Henge and the Eden Millennium Monument. Be sure to make a stop at the stunning Aira Force Waterfall, where you can explore nature trails and soak up the amazing views from a variety of viewpoints. Just a little further is Ambleside, home to the unusual and informative Armitt Library & Museum Centre, the fascinating remains of 2nd-century Roman Fort and the glorious Stock Ghyll Force, a 70ft waterfall surrounded by lush woodland. A trip to the Lakes is not complete without a visit to Lake Windemere, where you can try your hand at a variety of watersports on offer, tour The World of Beatrix Potter Attraction or embark up Queen Adelaides Hill for expansive views out to the Langdale Pikes. For an unforgettable getaway in the heart of the Lakes, choose The Nook.
