About this property

Eskdale Green 5.3 miles. In a little-known area of the Lake District, near to the River Esk, is the village of Ravenglass, where you can find this mid-Victorian property, as beautiful and classic on the inside as the outside, High Eskholme. Ideally suited to be a home-from-home for a larger family, or somewhere to host a reunion of old friends ready to take on the peaks in the Lakes. Once you have pulled up to this idyllic property, head indoors, stepping onto the flagstone floor with the first room on your left being the snug, perfect for nestling down with a good book for some quiet time.

Further along the hall is the main sitting room, where you can light up the open fire on a cold evening and feel as though you've gone back in time in this historic building, while using the Sky TV package to decide on the evening's entertainment. Keep up with tradition and sit around the dining table for dinner, lovingly prepared in the stylish kitchen with a range of integrated fittings and appliances at your fingertips. Take a few steps down from the kitchen/diner into the boot room to find the utility room next door containing the washing machine and the back door leading out to the fantastic garden.

Overlooking the golf course, the garden is lawned and bordered by luscious trees; you can sit and look on as the little ones take pleasure in exploring and running around. When the night draws in, move upstairs to find the well-presented bedrooms, comprising of a master bedroom with double bed and en-suite bathroom and two twin rooms, served by a shower room, all benefiting from storage for your belongings and light and bright decor. A few miles down the road to the centre of Ravenglass will take you to the nearest pub, or if you are after more choice in restaurants and eateries, you can drive around 30 minutes south to Millom or 30 minutes north to Whitehaven for supermarkets, shops, pubs and restaurants.

Your main activity of your holiday will probably involve walking boots, so make sure not to forget them! Set out finding a route that would suit you best; there are many light walks along the River Esk, or for the more experienced who like a challenge, take one of the routes up the highest mountain in England, Scafell Pike. High Eskholme is a wonderful family home perfect for enjoying the delights of the Lake District.

Eskdale Green is a village in Cumbria within the Lake District lying just north-west of the River Esk. Home to a village shop and a pub, it is a quiet community situated in a valley surrounded by other small villages. England's highest peak, Scafell Pike dominates the skyline, whilst you can find waterfalls and deep valleys carved out by the River Esk.

    It is peaceful and very relaxing. Property provided the necessities needed, with the exception of towels. The information received from Sykes on confirming our booking was rather ambiguous concerning what towels were needed to be taken. It did say remember to take beach towels and T towels, we did take T towels only to find some provided, as we were not going to the beach we did not take those, only to find no hand or bath towels there. It would have been more accurate to say no towels provided. We visited the Ravensglass and Eskdale railway, had an afternoon tea there, very nice. Also paid a visit to Muncaster Castle, great day out and the raptor centre was brilliant, putting on a super flying display. All in all a fabulous break and the holiday property is a lovely characterful house well worth a visit.
