About this property

Set in the quaint rural village of Torver, Cumbria, lies this charming, three-bedroom holiday home, Ash Gill Cottage. Perfect for families seeking a peaceful escape to the countryside, this property boasts a plethora of tasteful on-site amenities, well-presented living spaces, and terrific positioning within the gorgeous landscape of the Lake District National Park. Inside, the designated chef will be pleased to find a fully-equipped kitchen, where tasty home-cooked meals can be whipped up to be savoured around the dining table or by the warmth of a centrepiece woodburning stove in the plush, living/dining room where you and the family can enjoy a film or two on the stylish Smart TV. In the warmer months, take your meals outside to enjoy alfresco in the furnished rear garden, a great spot for a soothing morning coffee whilst soaking in your tranquil surroundings. In the evenings, treat yourself to an indulgent bath before retiring to one of three inviting bedrooms, including a king with accompanying en-suite shower - an idyllic spot to wash away the day as you prepare for a new one. If you fancy exploring your local surroundings, stock up on supplies at the Torver Deli, grab some traditional pub fare at The Wilsons Arms or enjoy home made cakes, coffees and lunches at Undercrag studio and cafe, - both locations just a stone's throw away from your lodgings. Nearby Coniston hosts several spots popular with tourists, including The Ruskin Museum and the National Trust landmark of the Steam Yacht Gondola, which offers sailing trips on Coniston Water between the months of April and October. During your stay in the Lake District, be sure to visit some of the famous attractions and locales it contains, such as the Stock Ghyll Force waterfall in Ambleside, the Wordsworth Grasmere museum and Rydal Cave. Bring your loved ones for an unforgettable stay at Ash Gill Cottage.

Peacefully situated amidst some of the most breathtaking scenery in the Lake District. You have a lot of wonderful meal options in Torver thanks to the two excellent pubs that are available. It is well-known locally as a starting place for exploring the neighbouring fells and the Duddon Valley, as well as a fantastic base for exploring the nearby towns of Hawkshead, Ambleside, and Windermere. It was one of Wordsworth's favourite hangouts. Locally, Coniston Old Man, Wetherlam, and the magnificent woodland paths at Grizedale Forest offer excellent walking, mountain biking, climbing, and watersports options. Discover Tarn Hows, one of the most popular tourist destinations in the nation, take a leisurely ride on the lovely Gondola steam yacht, visit Hawkshead, an award-winning community with a magnificent Beatrix Potter Gallery, or indulge in some tranquil fishing on Esthwaite Water. A top-notch holiday destination any time of year.

  • Sally

    The owners have put a lot of thought into what makes an excellent self-catering cottage. It's very well equipped, very comfortable, and extremely homely. Oh, and it was immaculate. 2 little things would be nice, the option to turn one if the twins into a double and a slow cooker to have something ready and warm to come home to after walking in the area. We didn't rate the pub, food was ok, and we thought overpriced and the service was slow but Coniston and Ulverston are only a short drive away for supplies. The location of the cottage is ideal for walks. We are already looking at returning next year.

  • Rowana

    Had everything we needed. Very clean and comfortable. My only suggestion was some basics in the cupboard such as salt pepper oil sugar. As I wouldn't expect to bring those items.

  • Jackie

    Clean, spacious, tasteful and well equipped. Excellent location for exploring the southern lakes. Pub nearby was good for a decent meal or a pre dinner drink. Would recommend.
