2 Bed Cottage in Crosthwaite

About this property

Straight out of a fairy tale, this enchanting stone cottage at the heart of a sleepy village boasts gorgeous views of the Lythe. Bursting with period features, your holiday accommodation is a delightful haven for relaxing after a day of adventures and sleeps four guests across two bedrooms. You’ll be ideally placed for explorations near and far, based just 5.5 miles from the shores of Lake Windermere and the surrounding array of lakeside towns.

Step down into the open-plan living space to discover a comforting retreat with original beamed ceilings, wooden pillars and classic furniture. Pour a glass of wine and unwind on the sofas, or cook together in the country-cottage-style kitchen area using locally sourced ingredients and artisan produce. The farmhouse-style table has plenty of space for family meals and board games, or dine al fresco outside in the shared garden with sizzling BBQ treats. At bedtime, climb the stairs to enjoy a long soak in the pretty bathroom before retiring to one of two inviting bedrooms. There is off-road parking for two cars, and shared laundry facilities are available nearby.

Soak up the atmosphere and indulge in a spot of retail therapy in Kendal, a bustling market town brimming with independent shops, art galleries and eateries. Easily reached within 6.5 miles, there’s plenty to amuse guests with all tastes and interests, as Kendal has a vibrant culture characterised by art galleries, museums and galleries. Marvel at the ruins of Kendal Castle, learn about the area’s rich wool trade history and take a moment to reflect in the ancient parish church. Further afield, Cartmel village, 13 miles away, is known for its 12th-century priory, famous cheese shop and tantalising selection of restaurants, ranging from traditional pubs to Michelin-star restaurants.
