Country cottages in the Lake District

Holidays in Lake District

Set amongst a breathtaking backdrop of craggy hills, mountain tarns and glistening lakes, our rural homes are ideal for a Lake District escape. Whether you are seeking a romantic retreat for quiet evenings by the wood burner, or a hidden haven for board games and family films, our range of country cottages in the Lake District will surprise and delight even the most seasoned of travellers. Spend your days exploring the countryside off the beaten track, strolling alongside the crystal-clear waters of the remote Ennerdale Lake, or soaking up the scenery trekking up to the isolated Bowscale Tarn.

Discover the more popular destinations of Windermere and Ambleside at first light when they are at their most serene, sipping from a flask of coffee as you watch the sunrise, or settling with the papers at one of the pretty cafes. Tantalise your taste buds with a selection of artisan food products and lovingly hand-crafted delights, browsing the towns and villages for the best Cumberland sausage and sticky toffee pudding. Feast like kings at a welcoming village inn, or whip up delicious meals from the comfort of your cosy self-catering accommodation. Our rural cottages in the Lake District are never far from an excellent picnic spot, where you can marvel at the views from Castle Crag, or take in the gentle beauty of Elterwater.
