This quirky Lakeland home sits less than half a mile from the edge of Ullswater. Tucked at the bottom of the magnificent Helvellyn range, the village of Glenridding boasts a plethora of places to explore. From your door, enjoy the walking routes with rewarding panoramic views and climb the likes of St Sunday Crag (3 miles) and Catstycam (3 miles). From Glenridding, you can also board an Ullswater Steamer for a day out on the water. Visit the lakeside villages for a wonder around and grab some lunch. The Aira Force waterfall is 3 miles away by road and well worth a visit. If you fancy a lively night or a show, travel 16.5 miles to the Adventure Capital of England, Keswick and book tickets for the Theatre by the Lake. This beautiful stone built Lakeland cottage sits above Glenridding village and is accessed up a steep narrow drive.

The kitchen is equipped with a ceramic hob with an oven and grill, a microwave, dishwasher and fridge. The handy utility has a freezer, washing machine and tumble dryer.
