Dreamy detached traditional 17th century Lakeland 'picture postcard' cottages don't come better than Stone Arthur Cottage, occupying an idyllic sublime setting with simply breathtaking views over the Vale of Grasmere. This is truly Lakeland luxury at its very best in arguably the most romantic setting within the British Isles.

Words can't truly describe the magic of this setting, aptly backing onto Stone Arthur with panoramic views in all directions - here the mountains appear so close you can almost reach out and touch them. These captivating views are in every single direction including far reaching view towards Grasmere water. Step inside and see for yourself how charismatic charm blends so effortlessly with 21st century luxuries, this is a place to relax, rejuvenate and spend precious time together. Old oak beams adorn most rooms, picture windows are all around, slate flagged, oak and carpeted floors, vaulted ceilings, oak latched paneled doors, the warming woodburner and so much more blend effortlessly with luxuries we all know and hope for such as sleek modern bathrooms, a sympathetic designer kitchen, chic bedrooms and sumptuous furnishings - here you have everything a perfect Lakeland gem could wish for. A short walk will lead you in to the village passing a hotel and a country pub serving tempting food and real ales. Grasmere itself is stocked with great eateries, tea rooms and shops and if you like picturesque high and low level walks, this is a walker's paradise. Enchanting Stone Arthur Cottage has all the wonderful ingredients to provide the perfect Lake District holiday, one you will only want to repeat and with a view you will never forget.

The accommodation comprises: a long private drive leads you part way up the fell to the cottage; Gothic cathedral doors take you into a vaulted porch and from here you know you are somewhere special. The lounge is truly relaxing with gorgeous sumptuous leather furnishings by the woodburning stove and picture windows. The farmhouse kitchen has it all including an Aga, said to be the heart of any home and open to a dining / 2nd reception room with patio doors out to the garden, the dining room is perfect for gatherings and good wine with excellent food and conversation late into the evening. On the ground floor is a cloakroom with the 3rd WC and wash basin. Upstairs to the three simply magnificent bedrooms, each of which should be featured in a glossy magazine, one with view towards Grasmere water and all with the most comfy of beds designed for perfect night's sleep. The bathroom facilities are Victorian luxury and ideal for long soaks in the roll top bath after a day on the fells. There is an office area with Wi-Fi connection for those who need to keep in contact or who naturally feel inspired. Outside the garden is delightful and with furnishings to enjoy the scenery and many a meal al-fresco. There is a boot room with utility and perfect for bike storage.

Stone Arthur Cottage has achieved Enjoy England Gold Award 2010/11 for exceptional quality of accommodation and customer service.
