Description The property is superbly and prominently placed close to William Wordsworth's former home Rydal Mount in the very heart of The Lake District National Park with an array of stunning walks accessible from the doorstep. Nestled at the foot of Nab Scar from where footpaths lead on to the Fairfield Horseshoe, one of Lakeland's most challenging walks, or ramble along the famous 'coffin road' trail which starts just up the lane from the cottage, offering fabulous elevated views above Rydal Water.

The little covered porch invites you into the welcoming sitting room, full of character with its exposed beams and wood burning stove. A lovely room in which to gather with friends and family. The kitchen just beyond, is fresh, bright and airy with tiled walls and floor, wall and base units with polished slate worktops, and an external door to the rear. Fitted Lamona appliances include a four ring ceramic hob, set over an electric grill/oven, with extractor hood over, and a dishwasher. Additionally there is an integrated Bosch washer/dryer.

An open staircase leads you to the first floor landing with built in double cupboard housing the hot water cylinder. There are two delightful and charming bedrooms, a double with exposed beam and lintel, and also having a lovely fitted triple wardrobe, and a twin, both benefitting from their own wash basins. The tiled bathroom has a three piece suite comprising a panel bath with Mira shower over, pedestal wash hand basin, and WC.

Stepping outside there is an easily maintained front garden with well established mature shrubs including rhododendrons and a fine Acer, and with space to sit while admiring the view. To the rear is a peaceful patio, with steps leading upwards to a tiered lawn area perfect for late afternoon / early evening sitting with a glass of something cool.

This picture perfect cottage is sure to attract a lot of attention - early viewing is recommended.

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
