Langdale Boulders

About this property

Nestled in the heart of the Lake District’s stunning Langdale Valley, in the idyllic village of Chapel Stile, lies this stunning Lakeland cottage, 'Langdale Boulders'.

The property takes its name from the nearby boulders featuring rock art and dating back to late Neolithic and Bronze Age periods. This site is a must for any history enthusiasts.

Boasting three floors of contemporary decor with mesmerising views all around, Langdale Boulders provides a simply exceptional base for friends, couples or families looking to getaway to the Lakelands.

Off-road parking will meet you on arrival before entering through the rear garden door into the handy boot room. On entering the living room and kitchen diner you’ll be grasped by the encompassing valley and fell views before discovering the newly updated facilities to assist you throughout your stay.

Conjure up a home-cooked classic after a day exploring and gather at the dining table for a leisurely meal together looking out at the Langdale views, before escaping to the living area to end the evening with a film in front of the log burner. Retire to the top floor and find two king-size rooms, one benefitting from en-suite facilities whilst the other enjoying access to the adjacent shower room.

Wind your way to the ground-floor to reveal the final king-size room with spectacular views to the Langdale Pikes, serviced by a bathroom where guests have choice of bath or shower over.

Access the patio space on a fresh morning and appreciate the fell views, while planning your day exploring the area. Chapel Stile exudes a quintessential rural charm, with its traditional stone buildings, quaint cottages, village shop and pubs where you can enjoy a hearty meal and pint of ale.
