Location: Penruddock

Keswick 11 miles; Penrith 6 miles.

The charming old village of Penruddock sits in a secluded position in the northern Lake District between Keswick and Penrith, and just four miles from Ullswater. The village is spread out amongst beautiful rolling countryside and wonderful scenery and is made up of a number of farm dwellings, traditional Lakeland homes and two churches. Penruddock originated in Celtic times, with the name derived from Pen, a Celtic name for 'hill' and 'rhuddawc' meaning red in Welsh to reflect the reddish brown colour of the soil found in the area. Nearby, the popular town of Keswick is the holiday centre of the north of the Lake District and has plenty to offer, boasting numerous shops and restaurants to suit all tastes, as well as offering miniature golf, some good parks, the Century Theatre, a charming cinema and the beautiful lake. Penruddock provides easy access to the spectacular surrounding Cumbrian countryside which can be explored by both car and on foot, and with the southern Lakes, Solway Coast and Hadrian's Wall all within easy motoring distance this great location has plenty to see and do for all the family.

Previous visitors' comments about Mell Fell View:

Excellent preparation of the cottage anticipating all our needs. The attention to the decor and cleanliness was outstanding
Mr Manning, Matlock, September 2011

We particularly enjoyed the peace and tranquility of the location. The views over the fell are spectacular and we would have no hesitation in booking the cottage again. It was lovely to see the many varieties of birds that visited the garden throughout the day.
Mrs Wigston, Morecambe, September 2011

We found the cottage to be simply perfect, quiet and remote but still within easy reach of all places of interest. Great food from a host of local inns.
Mr Parmley, Ashington, September 2011

It was central to many of the attractions of the area. It was in a peaceful location with great views, well placed for both Penrith and Keswick. Well equipped kitchen and we enjoyed our stay very much. We hope to come again.
