Description
If you’re looking for seclusion and escapism but with a luxury feel, in a magical setting, Brooklands Cottage ticks all the boxes.
In a peaceful setting over the River Brathay amidst woodland in the heart of Little Langdale, this is a setting like no other.
Luxuriously decorated and appointed, this romantic hideaway offers glorious walks in every direction, and bird and wildlife all around.
Approached along a narrow country lane, used by a handful of locals and popular with mountain bikers and walkers and for the final 400 yards you leave the tarmac behind and continue up the old miners track to the cottage.From the lane the gate opens to a beautifully landscaped woodland garden and steps lead to the front door that opens to the porch.
This hideaway cottage is a magical retreat for walking in the Lake District, or simply soaking up the scenery.
The Three Shires Inn offers hearty homemade fare and local ales just a short stroll away.
Walks and bike rides abound, and the famous Cathedral Cavern and Slaters Bridge are both nearby.
When you wish to head out and explore the rest of the Lakes, pass through pretty Elterwater on your way to Skelwith Bridge and the A593.
From here, head south to Coniston or north to Ambleside.
You'll also find acclaimed Lake District country pubs aplenty in the surrounding area.
The perfect way to refuel after a day on the fells.
membership of local leisure club included.

What guests are saying
Beautiful cottage but not great to get to our 1st night was freezing in there and the heating in the front bedroom didn’t work either we sat with our coats on all night the next evening someone came and brought us 2 heaters which worked well so second night was fine then our last night we had a power cut so we had nothing couldn’t even contact anyone as no phones no internet nothing so the house was beautiful but a bit of a nightmare holiday for us
This was our 4th stay at Brooklands, always one of our favourite holidays.
The location is perfect, once parked up we didn't move the car for the week. We had perfect weather too for walking each day. Comfortable and warm, well equipped with everything we needed. Will be interested to see what the little building next to the cottage becomes .....We did think the property was pet free, however did suspect there had been doggies in the cottage.......I was sorry to see that we are already too late to book again for 2023 - already booked out for the year! Hopefully we will be back in 2024. A wonderful cottage!
Brooklands is an idyllic cottage in the woods.
Only a short walk from Little Langdale but has a lovely remote and quiet feel about it. There is an abundance of wildlife in the woods; we had deer and red squirrel in the garden on several occasions. The cottage is well equipped and has everything you need. Great walks off the doorstep and great food and drink available at the Three Shires Inn which is 10 mins walk away.

Property notes
Please note this property has a zip link bed. This will be made as a twin by default. Please contact the call center should you wish it to be a super king.
Please be aware a small part of the garden has been securely fenced off, due to corrosion of a dry stone wall. Work to fix will resume at the end of the year/early 2023 to avoid any disturbance to guests, thank you.
The location of the property is down a track and a small vehicle may struggle. A 4x4 may be more suitable.
