About this property

Cottage With Views Of Esthwaite Water, an Osprey Nest and Close To Hawkshead

A luxury 1 bedroom cottage, regularly upgraded, in the grounds of Rough Close House, separated from the main house by a court yard. All the rooms are seperate, there is a lot of space for two. Accommodation is for 2 adults only. There is ample, easy off road parking.
Visitors may also spot the ospreys which nest on Esthwaite Water. Their nest can be seen from the Coppice lounge normally. The ospreys usually arrive late March or early April and leave at the end of August. They have had chicks each year recently and there are now four nesting pairs in the area.
The property is ideally placed for wide range of activities including walking, mountain biking, fishing, or sight-seeing. Whichever you choose we hope you will enjoy your stay at the Coppice.
