This superb cottage makes an ideal base for exploring this wonderful part of the Lake District.

Excellent walking, climbing and mountain biking are available locally on Coniston Old Man and Wetherlam. Nearby at Grizedale Forest you’ll find woodland walks and nature trails. If you like watersports the quiet lake is ideal for kayaks and canoeing. Also nearby is Tarn Hows, one of the most visited beauty spots in the country and Esthwaite Water, famous for its fishing. Overall, as the name suggests, this truly is a Mountain Escape!

Really spacious and comfortable in a great location if you want to be in the centre of Coniston.

Really spacious and comfortable in a great location if you want to be in the centre of Coniston. Beautiful views from the street facing windows and everything we needed to cook etc was provided…beds where really comfortable and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay….parking was a real issue unfortunately and use of the rear garden for a bbq at the least would have made this a 5 star not to be missed rental…would definitely consider again though.
