Overview

Owners Tim and Karen are on hand to greet you and help with where to eat and shop as well as things to do in the area but will respect your privacy at all times. This non-smoking self catering accommodation has been refurbished to offer comfortable, modern, open plan accommodation for stylish living in a peaceful location. The interior is well appointed with a brand new fully fitted kitchen. It is bright and sunny in summer and cosy in winter with French windows looking out to an attractive and secluded private garden which looks onto a young flower meadow beyond.

Kitchen

The kitchen is brand new and well equipped with in built dishwasher, fridge and full size oven. There is an induction hob with extractor fan and a microwave oven with crockery/glassware for 4 persons and plenty of pans for the induction hob. There is also a small Lavazza coffee machine for your convenience. An iron and hair drier are provided in the Lodge.

Bathroom

After a long day walking on the fells, you can take a luxurious shower in the newly refurbished bathroom where large bath towels and complementary toiletries are provided. The bathroom is located on the ground floor next to the lounge area.

Bedroom

The double bedroom is reached by a carpeted staircase leading to mezzanine gallery-style space. It’s a light and bright area with carpeted flooring, spot lights, double wardrobe with one window looking towards lovely views over meadows and fields and the other window looking out towards Sale Fell. There is an built-in wardrobe, a bedside table and lamp.

Location

The location is superb being very close to the shore side of Bassenthwaite Lake. A gentle stroll to a highly recommended inn, a The Lakes Distillery and bistro at the end of the lane and a ten minute drive to the surrounding fells of Skiddaw. Less than 10 minutes drive to either the bustling tourist town of Keswick or the Georgian Town of Cockermouth (the birth place of William Wordsworth).

The small south facing garden has pleasant views to a young flower meadow. Garden furniture and barbeque are provided for al fresco dining. There is private parking for your car beside the garden.

Facilities

The Lodge is centrally heated and provides constant hot water. Bedding, towels and tea towels are included in the tariff. There is a colour flat screen smart TV and the subtle spotlights and lamps create a relaxing ambience. You can dine at home on table for two if you feel like having a cosy night in. There are DVDs, books and games in the lounge and a lovely garden with a BBQ, table and chairs.

Family and Pet Friendly

Babies are welcome and we do have a travel cot. We also have a high chair. One well behaved dog is welcome. There is a £50 charge for a pet. Please call us to arrange.

We look forward to receiving all guests, new and returning.
