4 Bed Cottage in Ulpha

About this property

This property’s superb location is not the only appeal of this home, it comfortably sleeps eight guests, is stylish and is oozing characterful charm throughout. Explore the spectacular sights of the Lake District such as Coniston Water and Scafell Pike.

This quaint stone cottage is situated up a pretty forest track. It has been thoughtfully decorated and furnished with exposed beams and wooden window frames throughout. The contemporary kitchen has everything you need for cooking up a storm, and an eight-seater dining table is provided for you to enjoy eating and socialising together. Get comfortable in the spacious lounge in front of the warming wood burner and reflect on the day. Two bedrooms are situated on the ground floor, one has superb views to the fells beyond, and the other boasts a feature stone wall. Upstairs are the other two bedrooms and a luxurious family bathroom. The large garden area has plenty of spots to sit and admire the wildlife and views around you.

Dunnerdale is a picturesque valley with an abundance of walks and cycling routes available from the doorstep. Take a stroll along Grass Guards Ghyll and up to the summit of Caw nestled above the valley or visit the cascading Stanley Ghyll Force (6.5 miles). If you want to try something more challenging, 8 miles away is the base of England's highest peak Scafell Pike. Find pubs and a shop in Broughton Mills (4 miles), or head to Coniston Water (15 miles) and enjoy kayaking, canoeing or stand-up paddle boarding.
