Cragg Cottage is an exquisite cottage situated in Torver, Cumbria, boasting countryside views, private driveway parking, a hot tub, and beautiful access to the Lake District landscape.
Perfect for two couples or a small family seeking an exceptional Cumbrian escape, this handsome stone-built retreat brings together fine detailing, generous living spaces and a setting made for fell walks, lake days and evenings beneath wide country skies.
Arrive at Cragg Cottage and step through the heated entrance porch, where boots and coats can be left after a day on the trails.
The kitchen/diner has a refined country feel, with slate flagstone flooring, an electric double oven, induction hob, dishwasher, and fridge/freezer ready for hearty breakfasts and celebratory suppers.
A breakfast bar seats four, while the Smart TV adds easy background entertainment as plans unfold over morning coffee.
Across the hall, the living/dining room invites everyone to gather beside the woodburning stove, with window seats framing the garden and countryside beyond.
Outside, the terrace, lawn and patio create an inviting place for al fresco dining, while the hot tub looks out across open rural scenery.
Upstairs, two king-size bedrooms continue the elegant finish, each with its own TV and en-suite.
One offers both a bath and a separate walk-in shower, while the other has a walk-in shower; ideal for unhurried mornings before setting out.
The pub is close by, with a shop a short drive away.
In Torver, explore the nearby Crake and Woodland Valleys, where spring brings wild garlic, bluebells, and birdsong.
Coniston offers access to Coniston Water, the iconic Old Man of Coniston, the Ruskin Museum, and Coniston Boating Centre for paddleboarding, kayaking, and sailing.
Across the lake, Brantwood celebrates John Ruskin’s former home, arts centre and gardens, while Ambleside, Bowness, and Windermere invite classic Lake District days out.
