A spacious modern property, offering a great base for family and friends to explore the Lakes and Cumbrian coastline. With a couple of country pubs on your doorstep.

Located in the pretty village of Ennerdale Bridge in the Lake District National Park, within walking distance of two country pubs, a coffee shop, and a village shop, also close to Ennerdale water, the most westerly Lake with country pubs serving good food and local beer. Head to the coastal town of St Bees, enjoy a stroll along the promenade or have a dip in the sea and relax on the sandy beach. For the more adventurous, visit Go Ape at Whinlatter or explore the many bike tracks on offer. Beautiful Buttermere is a short drive away, the scenery is breath-taking, enjoy a walk around the Lake or why not do the Catbells Lakeland Walk. For something different why not go Alpaca and Llama trekking!

This lovely house has an ‘upside down’ layout to take advantage of the views from the balcony in the lounge. As you walk in the front door into the bright spacious hallway you will find two bedrooms on the ground floor, the first one is a pretty double with access out to the garden through French doors.

We really enjoyed staying at Thornside Cottage. The space worked really well for us, and the location is great. Being right next door to The Gather cafe was a bonus! There were many walks close by and Ennerdale Water itself only a 25 minute walk. The village of Ennerdale Bridge is peaceful and we felt very safe walking the dog in the evenings. We hRead moread dinner at The Shepherds Arms a few times as well which had great food Hide

Beautifully clean and comfortable cottage in fantastic surroundings. We certainly didnt want for anything. The Fox and Hounds right on your doorstep and the Gather very useful and the people extremely friendly. Would definitely stay again.
