This is the view as you walk up to the cottage. Our spacious garden is a favourite with cottage guests - perfect for relaxing with the fell view, playing with little ones or the dog, or enjoying a sunny-day barbecue!

☀️Look who’s back for summer!🌿
Just before the May bank holiday weekend, we spotted the first swallow returning to Whitbeck — and they even photo-bombed this peaceful scene! Can you spot three of them in this photo?

Their arrival marks the arriving summer. Have you made your holiday plans yet?
If you’d like a countryside stay in the secluded western Lake District, we’d love to welcome you.😊

This airy, light-filled conservatory with the fell views is a firm favourite✨ among our cottage guests — the perfect spot to enjoy a cuppa in the morning, to watch the lambs having their morning zoomies in the spring fields, or simply to relax in the evening. There is also a bonus for families with little ones👪: you can keep an eye on the children running and playing in the private enclosed garden... all while enjoying a well-earned glass of wine from the comfort of your seat!🍷😉

A glimpse into the cottage's sitting room. The interior and the decorations were thoughtfully chosen to respect the cottage’s heritage as a nearly 400 years old former Cumbrian farmhouse.

One of the many great things about the Lake District is its ever-changing landscapes. Each area has its own unique character—the wild and dynamic beauty of the Wasdale area, the gentle scenery around Grasmere, the rugged Coniston Old Man,... the list continues. Even the smallest tarns and valleys transform with the seasons. As England’s largest national park, there’s a vast and diverse landscapes waiting to be explored—where would you like to visit during your stay in the Lakes?
