This alluring holiday property is set in the heart of the Newlands Valley and has stunning views over Skiddaw, Barrow, Catbells and Causey Pike. Originally a corn mill, this wonderful holiday cottage stands amongst two acres of gardens and woodlands. There are bright and airy rooms with living areas arranged on the first floor to make the most of the glorious views.

Newlands Valley is the picture-perfect valley where Beatrix Potter wrote many of her tales. The mountain scenery is inspiring and the fell walking here is second to none. For those wishing to cycle, then the testing Newlands Pass is on the doorstep, as well as Whinlatter and Honister for the brave. Walkers can easily access Catbells, Barrow and Causey Pike directly from the cottage. Whinlatter Forest Park is just 4 miles away and has a Go Ape! high-wire course, a zip line adventure and miles of trails and footpaths for a leisurely stroll or an adventurous hike.

The nearest pub is 0.5 miles away, serving homemade food and Lakeland ales. The beer garden is the perfect spot to watch the sun set. Keswick is only 4 miles away by car (3 miles on foot) offering a wide selection of pubs, attractions, cafes and shops.

The property has a long entrance hallway into the cottage with hanging space for outdoor clothing.

There are two bedrooms on the ground floor, a double and a twin, both of which have views of the Newlands Valley and Robinson Fell. There is a separate utility room available outside in the shed, equipped with a washer, dryer, ironing facilities and a BBQ.
