The property

Brockstone is an appealing rustic detached cottage near Grasmere, Lake District, with breath-taking views towards Rydal Water, sloping gardens and parking for one car.

Set on a peaceful hillside with stunning views, this cottage sits on the famous Coffin Route and is just a 5‑minute drive or 20‑minute stroll from Grasmere, offering beautiful walks in every direction straight from the door without ever needing the car.

Step inside to discover traditional wooden beams and a welcoming sitting room, where the glow of the woodburning stove creates a relaxed setting after a day in the hills.

Sink into the sofa with a film on the Smart TV or simply watch the changing light over the fells through the windows. The well-equipped kitchen/diner offers everything you need for easy self-catering, with ample space to prepare hearty breakfasts before a long walk or relaxed suppers to share together.

Upstairs, a super-king-size bedroom with en-suite walk-in shower room provides a generous retreat at the end of the day, while a twin bedroom and a family bathroom with bath and shower over give flexible sleeping arrangements for friends or family. Outside, the sloping gardens wrap around the cottage, with a patio area perfectly positioned to make the most of those far-reaching lake and mountain views; linger over a morning coffee as the valley wakes or enjoy an evening drink as the sun dips behind the fells.

With WiFi on hand and two well-behaved dogs welcome, Brockstone combines rustic charm with modern touches. From the door, walkers are spoilt for choice, with paths leading towards Grasmere and Ambleside, where you can pause for refreshments or time by the water.

A short drive brings you to Windermere and Kendal, offering further opportunities for lakeside strolls, shopping and dining.

GRASMERE

Ambleside 5 miles; Windermere 9 miles; Keswick 13 miles.

Situated in the heart of the Lake District National Park is the lovely village of Grasmere, probably best known as the home of William Wordsworth, a place he once described as "The most loveliest spot that man hath found". Any visit to Grasmere needs to include The Grasmere Gingerbread shop, where the Wilson family has been making gingerbread for over 60 years. Also in the village are a number of shops, pubs, a church which dates back to the 13th century, and Grasmere Lake. Grasmere Sports takes place every August, where you can watch participants compete in a variety of sports, including Cumberland wrestling. Just five miles away is the town of Ambleside and Lake Winderemere where you will find shops, pubs, restaurants and the 17th century Bridge House, which is one of the most photographed buildings in the Lake District. Cruises, boat trips and watersports can all be enjoyed on Lake Windermere, and the towns of Windermere and Keswick are also within driving distance. Grasmere is a wonderful base for your Lake District retreat.
