Eskdale is lovely, quiet valley with lots of opportunities for walking and cycling for all abilities. Sca Fell and Scafell Pike are a challenging climb and not for the faint hearted, while a stroll along the River Esk is a much gentler route, but no less lovely. Mountain biking trails lead over to Wasdale and Duddon, or if the hill climbs are not your thing, head out towards the coast on some easier routes. History enthusiasts will love Muncaster Castle, 5 miles away, and with seven pubs within 10 miles you can enjoy excellent home cooked food after a busy day. Take a trip on the Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway, known as the La'al Ratty, making a leisurely 7 mile journey through beautiful scenery to the sea. Stretch your legs along Drigg Beach, 7.5 miles away and perfect for picnics and a dip in the sea. Contemporary yet welcoming, a subtle colour scheme combined with tasteful, unique furnishings creates a sophisticated interior to this charming cottage. Enter through the glass porch to the stone flagged hallway and head through to the living room. With views from the window seat over to Birker Fell, this charming room is light during the day yet takes on a cosy atmosphere as the evening draws in and the wood burner is lit. The two armchairs and deep, comfortable sofa are the perfect place to relax after a busy day, with your feet up and a film on the Smart TV. The spacious, open plan kitchen/diner is ideal for gathering everyone together for a hearty breakfast or evening meal. The stylish dining room has a large wood burner, a dining table for six and two armchairs arranged around French doors leading out onto the elevated terrace. The kitchen is equipped with a range cooker with two ovens, two range style hobs, two induction hobs, fridge/freezer, microwave and dishwasher. The utility room has a washing machine, tumble dryer, ceiling airer and lots of space for muddy boots and outdoor gear and access to the downstairs shower room with WC and large wet room style mixer shower. Upstairs all three bedrooms are similarly furnished and each with an ornamental fireplace. The king size bedroom has ample storage and views to the fells, while the double bedroom has two dressers and hanging hooks for clothes storage. The twin room can be made into a super king size upon request and has ample storage and a wonderful view to Birker Fell. The bathroom has a roll top bath and a separate shower. Outside, the elevated terrace is accessed from the dining room and is the perfect place for indulging in a morning cuppa or an evening glass of wine, overlooking the sloping lawn bordered with mature trees and shrubs. To the rear of the house there is a dog shower room which doubles up as a storage room for bikes. There is off road parking to the side of the house.
