Bedroom 2: Zip And Link 2 x Single (3ft) Beds Ensuite: Cubicle Shower, Toilet. Electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi included. Initial fuel for wood burner included. Cot and highchair. . Visit England 4 Star. No smoking.. A cosy 18th-century cottage where heritage meets modern comfort, perfect for walkers, couples, or small families (and their dogs) who love scenic hikes and village convenience. Windy Nook retains all the charm of its origins, with exposed beams and feature stone walls, while stylish local photography, new furnishings, and thoughtful touches give it a fresh, contemporary feel. Guests can unwind with a smart TV, coffee machine, and air fryer for those home-from-home comforts.
Set in the heart of Pooley Bridge, on the north-eastern edge of Ullswater, the cottage is ideally placed for exploring one of the Lake District’s most beautiful and accessible areas. The River Eamont meets Ullswater just moments away, and nearby Dunmallard Hill, once an Iron Age fort, adds a sense of history to the landscape. Everything you need is on your doorstep, with three welcoming pubs serving excellent food, cosy tearooms, and local shops offering fresh produce, outdoor gear, and souvenirs.
From the village pier, the famous Ullswater Steamers depart for cruises along the seven-mile lake to Howtown and Glenridding. The surrounding area offers unforgettable walks, from gentle riverside and woodland strolls to more adventurous routes across the High Street and Helvellyn ranges. Don’t miss Aira Force, a spectacular waterfall about halfway along the lake.
Getting here is easy. Penrith (junction 40 of the M6) is just five miles away, with a railway station, supermarkets, banks, and other amenities. The bustling market town of Keswick is around 20 miles from the village.
