Hollens Apartment

About this property

A tastefully furnished 17th century farmhouse located only a short stroll from the centre of Grasmere, this luxury Lake District cottage still retains many original features. Hollens Farmhouse is offered to smaller parties at quieter times of year and known as Hollens Apartment with only the 2 bedrooms on the first floor being available. Outside there is a sunny patio with furniture, where better to relax with a glass of wine after a day exploring the area.

Grasmere is internationally acclaimed not only for its Wordsworth connections but also as it sits at the northern tip of the lake with the fells towering above in the most stunning scenery imaginable. It is a walkers haven with low and high walks available in all directions.

A wide selection of tea rooms, restaurants and traditional village inns and a range of local shops including the world famous gingerbread shop and Heaton Cooper Art Gallery help to make this a popular destination at any time of the year.
