About this property
An immaculate, mid-terrace, three-storey cottage, situated close to the main high street in the tiny village of Greenodd. Carefully renovated to retain many of its original features, this charming cottage boasts beautiful beams, a warm and cosy sitting room and a well-equipped modern kitchen. A short stroll takes you to the aptly-named local pub, The Ship Inn, bearing reference to the village's historical shipbuilding past, and with the Cumbrian Way and several cycle paths running close by, the property is ideally located for enjoying excellent walking, cycling and nature watching activities. The festival town of Ulverston is just 3 miles away, with its many pubs and restaurants and bi-weekly market, whilst the sandy beaches of the Furness coast, and Coniston, with its mountain biking, climbing and watersports, are just a short drive away. An excellent holiday base, for friends and family alike.
Resting on the estuary of Carmel Sands within the Crake Valley is the small village of Greenodd. Set on the borders of the Lake District National Park, this 18th Century town was once a thriving shipbuilding centre and a significant commercial port, exporting locally quarried limestone, gunpowder and copper. Today, Greenodd is a quiet residential town that maintains much of its charm and contains a good selection of shops and a local pub, The Ship, which provides a visible link to the village's history. Just three miles away is the ancient market town of Ulverston, which is famous for its street markets and festivals as well as boasting a wide range of shops, pubs and leisure facilities. It is also home to the only Laurel and Hardy museum in the world and is the birthplace of Stan Laurel. The stunning National Park is within easy reach, as are the towns of Coniston, Windermere and the beautiful Furness Coast with its golden beaches and good birdwatching opportunities.
