About this property

Set within the grounds of the grand Victorian Villa and former school, is this wonderful single-storey cottage, Penrice. Enjoying a superb location in the Lake District National Park and sublime country views, and named after the former school’s headmaster, Penrice is a fantastic pet-friendly choice for a couple seeking a romantic retreat. Be welcomed into the open-plan living space, where you will find a well-equipped kitchen, featuring a handy dishwasher and washing machine, where you can conjure up a delicious feast for two, ready to enjoy at the dining table over a bottle of wine. On warmer days, why not fire up the barbecue and dine alfresco out in your rear enclosed garden? After dinner, relax on the plush sofas in the sitting room, one of which can be turned into a sofa bed, whilst watching your favourite show on the 40” Smart TV.

A beautifully tiled shower room awaits you after a day of exploring, where you can freshen up before climbing into the sumptuous king-size to catch your rest ahead of another adventure filled day.

    Location great, beaches, pubs and shops nearby. Tony was there on arrival to great us and show us to accommodation. He also showed us the pathway through the woodland to local pub and shops. Loved the animals. Few maintenance issues which could be fixed easily, already mentioned on previous comments.

    A very comfortable property.

  • Peter

    Cottage was great and Tony the host couldn't have been any more helpful and friendly. Setting was great and a perfect base. Garden was great for privacy and to let the dog have some freedom. Will definitely be back.
