About this property
Tabithas is a fantastic cottage located in the most iconic of Lake District valleys, surrounded by mountains and stunning views with so much to do right on your doorstep.
Tabithas is a traditional Lakeland stone cottage sleeping 4, located in the beautiful Langdale Valley in the village of Chapel Stile. The cottage has stunning views of Lingmoor fell and the Langdale Pikes and is superbly located with numerous walks from your door, the local village shop is only 400m away and a selection of pubs within walking distance.
On entering the cottage, you are met by the cosy living area, with original slate flooring and you will immediately notice the welcoming wood-burning stove, enticing you to snuggle up on the comfortable sofas. The room gives an instant sense of homeliness and lets you relax and enjoy your surroundings. The bathroom is located downstairs with a full size bath and overhead shower. The kitchen/dining room is spacious, bright and fully equipped with everything you can possibly need for your stay.
Upstairs, we have the two bedrooms; the double at the front of the house gives fantastic vistas of the valley and has the added bonus of an ensuite toilet, the second bedroom has two single beds, again with plenty of storage and views of the fells that the cottage is nestled into.

Comfort beds however a slight ticking/hissing noise in the main bedroom from the immersion heater.

A very compact house that on first appearance seems tiny but actually the kitchen was roomy and the sitting room perfectly comfortable for 4. Beds also very comfy. Kitchen kit pretty basic - bring your own salt and pepper! And no local information is provided. Not really friendly for dogs as not allowed upstairs or on furniture. Lovely location, with nice path into Elterwater and bus service to various towns. Overall property is okay but nothing to write home about.

Had a relaxing 4 nights in the cottage. Fantastic area, 10 minute walk to local pub and restaurant, and great walks from the doorstep. Lovely views
