About this property
Honeypot Cottage, formerly the village Sunday school building, is an attractive stone-built cottage located on a hillside overlooking the charming village of Brigsteer in the Lake District National Park in Cumbria. With lovely views from the elevated garden of the Lyth Valley, this cottage is perfect for a romantic escape or family holiday. Upstairs in the cottage are two elegantly furnished bedrooms, one king-size bedroom with en-suite bathroom and a twin bedroom. On the ground floor this property has a wet room with a walk-in shower, basin and WC. Also on the ground floor is a cosy sitting room with a woodburning stove, a perfect country kitchen with Falcon Range cooker and dining table. Outside there are plenty of places to enjoy the garden with steps leading up to a lawned area and patio. Just a short walk down the hill, (longer on the way back up!) takes you to the village centre where there is a super local pub serving excellent food and ales. The auld grey town of Kendal is just 5 miles away and the tip of Lake Windermere is approx. 13 miles where you can visit the Aquarium of the Lakes or hop on board the Windermere Steamer and cruise up the lake to Bowness or Ambleside. The great attraction of this lovely cottage is the excellent walking in the Southern Lakes, fantastic local pubs and lots of interesting villages such as Cartmel to visit. An outstanding cottage, perfect at any time of the year.
Brigsteer is a hamlet between the towns of Helsington and Levens and about five miles from Kendal in Cumbria. Brigsteer is located on the edge of the Lyth valley with Scout Scar overlooking the village itself. Village amenities include a village hall and a local pub called The Wheatsheaf Inn.

So cosy, quiet and comfortable and beautifully clean. There are walks nearby without the hustle and bustle of the more touristy areas of the district, although these can easily be reached if this is what you are looking for. There is a lovely pub serving food just down the road if you donât feel like cooking in the very well appointed kitchen the cottage provides. We would love to stay with you again.
