The space While away days roaming fells, admiring gushing waterfalls and taking a steam train to the coast, then return here for al fresco meals on warm evenings and snug evenings gathered around the wood burner. Laid out over two storeys, this traditional Lakeland cottage is warm and welcoming with country-style decor and neutral hues. Rest and recharge after adventurous days in the cosy lounge, wood burner cracking, as you watch TV or play on the Nintendo Wii, or slip away to the snug to curl up with a book.
