The Little Cottage holds an excellent position within the village of Elterwater, being within easy reaching distance of Ambleside and Windermere, the cottage makes an ideal choice for families or couples wishing to fully explore the beautiful Lake District. There are a wide variety of helpful amenities and family-friendly attractions in the vicinity while the closest restaurant is just a 200m stroll away!
The cottage has been beautifully restored with incredibly high attention to detail by the interior designer, Katharine Pooley, who has updated the cottage with contemporary yet elegant interiors while retaining all of its original charm and character. The Little Cottage can comfortably accommodate four guests across its two well-appointed bedrooms making it ideal for a family or two couples holidaying together. On the ground floor is the main living accommodation which comprises of an open-plan living and dining area complete with a cosy woodburning stove as well as a stylish kitchen, fully-equipped with a range cooker and all the tools you could possibly need. Upstairs are the two bedrooms, a king-size master suite with luxury en-suite bathroom and a guest room which can either be set up with a king-size double or two single beds on request. Guests staying in the second bedroom have their own adjacent shower room.
Outside, after action-packed days spent exploring the magnificent Lake District on foot, enjoy long relaxing soaks in the hot tub, heaven! During the Summer months, the garden makes the ultimate venue for a barbecue and a spot of al fresco dining.
