The warm and welcoming lounge is ideal for spending quality time with friends and family. There is plenty of comfortable seating, a stunning open fireplace perfect for cosy nights in, board games and books to enjoy, and even a Smart TV.
On the first floor, there are two bedrooms, well-furnished with solid oak furniture, as well as quality beds and mattresses dressed with luxury linens and towels. The double bedroom room has plenty of storage space with bedside tables, wardrobe and a chest of drawers. There is room for a cot if required.

Both bedrooms have original cast iron fireplaces, stunning views of Skiddaw, and well co-ordinated soft furnishings and decor.
The beautiful Victorian-style bathroom is also on the first floor, and features a roll-top bath, ideal for soaking tired muscles after a day of exploring the great outdoors!
There is a small enclosed garden to the front, and another offset to the rear of the property. This is accessed via descending wooden steps from the elevated patio area at the back door. The lawned rear garden is south-facing, with garden furniture ideal for al-fresco dining.
Guests will not need to worry about where to leave the car(s) during their stay as there are two well-sized allocated parking spaces for the cottage.
The cottage is perfectly placed at the heart of the charming village of Portinscale. The popular Farmer's Arms pub is conveniently only a stones throw away, and The Chalet tearoom, Lingholm Gardens and the marinas also nearby. The views from the cottage are sure to inspire and walkers will delight at what's on offer straight from the front door. Head up Catbells for a fantastic birds eye view of Derwentwater. 10 minutes from the property, the walk takes you along the lakeshore, through woods where Beatrix Potter set some of her best loved books.
This cottage is next door to Fell View, which may prove ideal for two families wishing to holiday together.
