About this property
Keepers Cottage - Patterdale, Ullswater
Keepers Cottage is a wonderful traditional stone cottage situated in Grisedale Bridge, on the lake-side of the A592, just a short stroll from the quaint villages of Glenridding and Patterdale. This Ullswater self-catering cottage has been recently been refurbished throughout to restore the original wooden floor and exposed wooden beams. This self-catering cottage is ideal for walkers wishing to explore Ullswater and the Lake District or for couples looking for a romantic getaway sipping a glass of red in front of the roaring fire.
The self-catering cottage is perfect for walkers because you have many popular walks leading off from the doorstep including Place Fell, the Helvellyn Range with Helvellyn and Birkhouse Moor. If walking isn't your cup of tea, then why not hire a small motorised pleasure boat from St Patricks Boat Landing, 5 minutes walk away, or jump aboard one of the Ullswater Steamers, 10 minutes walk from the cottage and sail up to Pooley Bridge, Aira Force or Howtown.
Fancy eating out, then you will enjoy the local pubs, hotel bars, tea shops and cafes, all within walking distance. If you wish to go further afield, then why not use the bus service, with a bus stop situated at the end of the lane. Ambleside, Windermere, Keswick and Penrith are all well-within a hours drive from the cottage.
ACCOMMODATION SUMMARY: Ground Floor One private parking space at the front of the cottage. Open plan living room and kitchenette with a dining table for two, sizeable log-burning stove, TV with Sky Glass & Netflix. A door leads to the rear enclosed patio.

First Floor King-size double bed with bedside tables on either side. Modern bathroom with basin, loo and walk-in shower. Looking onto the fells, fabulous views of the front and rear of the cottage. All the windows have been replaced with double glazing, storage heaters are located on both floors, and the fire burning makes the cottage wonderfully cosy and warm!
