The large sitting room and dining area dates back to the 17th century, and oozes character, charm and warmth, with stunning views from all windows of Matterdale / Watermillock Fells. With a traditional range used until the 1950’s for cooking, boiling the water and heating the bread oven, it is now also equipped with Sky TV and video, two sofas and two armchairs. Upstairs there are three bedrooms (1 dbl with ensuite bathroom, 1 King Size, 1 Twin) and a second bathroom, all with stunning views across the fells.
