This is one of 4 cottages at Birkerthwaite, a former 17th century Lakeland Farmstead which is high in the hills and features beams taken from shipwrecks on the Cumbrian Coast. Birkerthwaite lies at the end of an unmade track and is surrounded by tranquil moorland scenery and farmland. A perfect escape from the busy modern world. This is fantastic walking countryside and the elevated position gives views of Scafell and the Eskdale Valley. Birkerthwaite Stable (W41477) is a single-storey converted stable with rustic charm heated by a multi- fuel log-burner that in turn heats a back- boiler. Nearby attractions include Muncaster Castle and Hardknott Roman Fort, whilst the Langdale Pikes and Ambleside on the northern shores of Lake Windermere can be reached via a stunning drive over the Hard Knott and Wrynose Passes. A short drive away is Wast Water; to the west are sandy beaches. Alternatively take the steam train from Ravenglass. Shop 3 miles, pub 2½ miles.

Lovely location definitely need a car as several miles to a main road via a rough track , All coal

Lovely location definitely need a car as several miles to a main road via a rough track , All coal and wood supplied for the log burner . No local shops so need to take food with you and then pick up more if you see a food store. If you want to eat out nearest pub for food a few miles away Interesting places to visit eg Coniston and Windermere lakes and Ravenglass within easily drivable distances but through very twisty and up and down mountain roads once you get up to the main road .
