The views from the property are outstanding and the Ullswater Steamers (4.5 miles) offer a great day out. Whinlatter Forest is a 17-mile drive and there are some great bike tracks here walking and running trails the Gruffalo walk which younger members of the family will love and Go Ape for those wanting to get their adrenalin pumping. As you enter the property which has underfloor heating throughout the ground floor and into the lounge the first thing you will notice is the views across the fells from the floor-to-ceiling dual windows. After a busy day out and about you can relax on the comfy seating around the cosy wood burner and watch your favourite programme on the Smart TV.
