Traditional 19th century semi detached cottage in rural position on edge of Lake District National Park with views over open countryside to the Lake District fells with the Langdale Pikes in the distance. The cottage is approached down a private drive a fields distance from the road, making it quiet and secluded yet it is only 1 1/2 miles north of the mediaeval market town of Kendal, known as Gateway to the Lakes. The cottage's position is ideally situated for exploring Windermere (8 miles), Ambleside (12 miles) and the rest of the central lakes - the Lake District National Park is an area of outstanding natural beauty, one quarter of which is owned by the National Trust. Lake Windermere at 10 1/2 miles is the longest of the 16 lakes, whilst Ambleside is approximately the centre of the Lake District with the lakes radiating in most directions. The children's author and illustrator, Beatrix Potter, lived in Hawkshead near Windermere and the poet, William Wordworth, lived in Grasmere. Ten miles east takes you to Sedbergh and the Yorkshire Dales National Park.

Accommodation comprises - Entrance Porch into Hallway with downstairs WC. Fully fitted kitchen with separate dining area with good sized table and four chairs. Large sitting room with large comfortable 3 seater settee, two large armchairs and other seating. There is an open fire and an antique Broadwood cottage piano. Upstairs, 1 bedroom with double bed and 1 bedroom with single bed both with washbasins. There are views over open countryside from both bedrooms. Family bathroom with bath, shower and WC. There is a third bedroom on the second floor but this is used for storage.

The cottage benefits from a private, mature garden with lovely views over open countryside to the Lake District fells. There is a tarmac hardstanding with ample parking for 2/3 cars. There is a garden table, four chairs and parasol. The garage is also used for storage.
