    Lovely cottage, just what we wanted despite that fact that I had to book it at the last minute.

The property

A delightful, eco-friendly, stone-built terraced cottage, a stable block conversion, just off a quiet lane in the centre of the pretty village of Armathwaite.

Solar panels allow guests to enjoy their holiday whilst reducing their carbon footprint.

Lovingly restored, decorated and furnished to a high standard, this Cumbria cottage is warm and welcoming, with a combination of original beams, exposed sandstone walls and a woodburner creating a holiday home of real comfort and character.

The quaint village of Armathwaite provides an array of interesting walks, and two pubs boast fine cuisine and traditional ales, while a well-stocked village shop means you don't have to leave the village for your groceries.

A great place to stay, and an ideal base for the Lake District, Eden Valley and the Solway Firth.

About the location

ARMATHWAITE

Penrith 11 miles.

The attractive, unspoilt rural village of Armathwaite is ideally placed for exploring the Lake District, Eden Valley and the lovely coastline of the Solway Firth. The village has two old pubs, both with popular restaurants serving excellent food, a village Post Office and a traditional village shop. The River Eden runs through the centre of the village, and the area is renowned for its excellent salmon fishing, plus walking, canoeing and climbing. Armathwaite Castle, by the river, is a four-storey Pele Tower, and the 15th Century Church has fine examples of stained glass windows. The Eden Gorge, between Lazonby and Armathwaite, is one of Cumbria's best-kept secrets, and is well worth exploring. The local railway station is a stop on the Settle-to-Carlisle Railway, which is one of the most beautiful railway journeys in Britain, and where today many old steam trains still wend their way through some of the finest countryside in Britain. The Rheged Discovery Centre in Penrith is the "largest grass covered building in the country" or you might like to visit Dalemain Historic House, featured in a television production of Jane Eyre.
