Character Cottage with fabulous mountain views in the North Lakes District
Stay at Erika's Cottage in a great location in the Lake District National Park with fantastic views of Blencathra, and the Mungrisedale Fells and the Dodds and Helvellyn Range to the south. This characterful one-bedroom cottage sits next to a private woodland where you may catch sight of the resident red squirrels and enjoy watching the other wildlife such as pheasants, birds of prey, woodpecker and stoats.
The cosy living room has wifi, 4K Ultra HD Smart TV and Nest Thermostat so that you can control your cottage temperature.
Erika's Cottage sits in a fantastic position to explore the Lake District with Ullswater only 6 miles away with its lakeside villages of Pooley Bridge and Glenridding; Keswick and Derwentwater are only 12 minutes drive away, and there is easy access to the rest of the Lake District.
There are plenty of welcoming pubs in the area and the nearest the Troutbeck Inn is just 1 mile away in Troutbeck Village; there is also a great farm shop 3 miles away on the A66.
The cottage is for a maximum of 2 people and well-behaved dogs are very welcome (small pet fee).
The cottage was just perfect for me and my dog as a base in the eastern Lakes. The views of Blencathra from the sitting room & garden were magnificent. The cottage has everything you could possibly need and we thorough enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning.
We had a lovely time staying in the cottage and enjoyed exploring the local area. It was our 1st trip to the lake district and we would definitely return to the area, it's such a beautiful place.
This was our first stay in a cottage in troutbeck but will definitely be back .there is everything u need from oven , vac , washer , bed was comfortable and bathroom was beautiful. Great outdoor space which was secure , great for our two dogs to play safely. And the stunning mountains were a plus , pub just under 2 mile and a farm shop a few mile away .
We loved this property. It was perfect for us plus our small dog. The outside space was lovely with it's enclosed garden and small wood beside. Views over to Blencathra were stunning and offered us an ideal spot to just chill out especially after some walking in the hills.Difficult to tear yourself away but will definitely return.
Lovely little cosy cottage, nice and quiet. Surrounded by trees and lovely views. Clean and tidy. A very small detail, but we could have done with a few more glassware. Only one small glass for drinking spirits or water.
Great cottage fantastic view Great to chill out in also nice and clean bed comfy shower perfect would recommend to family and friends will return again thankyou for a great stay
Small but perfectly formed. Lovely location and space of stay will likely book again. Only gripe was the mattress was not particularly brilliant but otherwise the cottage was perfect for us. Iâd recommend to couples or small families anytime.
We had a lovely 4 night stay, cottage is in a lovely spot, very quiet but within easy reach of places to visit etc. Has everything needed for a âhome from homeâ stay :-)
The location was stunning. The property was adequate but needs a little TLC. extractor in kitchen not connected to anything Patio door curtains filthy Squashed flies on glass inside property problems with access door lock, shower door leaks, sofa wobbles and a huge bug bearâŠ.. no wardrobe
Ideal cottage for 2. Very warm (we had a winter break) and cosy. Red squirrels in the copse next door and a fabulous view of Blencathra. Dog friendly with a fully enclosed garden. We will be back.
Stayed for a long weekend; perfect location and great amenities. We were luckily enough to see a red squirrel! The crows were a little annoying but very little you can do about that, they must have been nesting so we had our very own personal early alarm call! Would reccommend the cottage and would definitely go back if visiting the region again. Only thing to mention would be the mould that was starting to develop on the bathroom ceiling.
This is our third stay in the cottage and now feels like home from home. We were initially a little disappointed on arrival as the patio doors were so dirty (from the nesting birds) we had to clean the them ourselves in order to see out. The cottage could also benefit from new pillows as they are very flat. Other than that had a very enjoyable visit made even better by seeing a red Squirrel in the garden on last day that and nice weather made the holiday for us.
We have just spent 3 nights here. Stunning location with beautiful views and good access to the lakes. Property cosy and warm. Very peaceful. Encolsed garden a bonus for the dog.
Property had all the facilities needed.
Ideal getaway for a couple seeking a peaceful break.
Lovely well equipped little cottage with a perfect fenced in garden and amazing views!
Lots to do in local area with good amenities and friendly locals
A great little cottage clean with everything you need, the views are to die for.A great location for all the lakes and within easy reach of the local pub.many thanks.
