    “The cottage was superb.”

    Beautifully clean when I arrived and cosy too (the latter very much needed considering the very wet weather!). Lovely walks right from the door and a really handy village shop right next door complete with a lovely coffee shop, perfect after a few hours on the fells. Everything had been thought of from kitchen utensils, games, running trail maps in nearby Whinlatter to a bluetooth speaker, washing up liquid, toilet rolls and tea towels. I'd happily recommend this cottage!

The property

Holme Rigg is a fantastic, three-story cottage in the heart of Braithwaite, Cumbria. Holme Rigg is a fantastic pet-friendly option for families of five or couples, since it enjoys a superb location within the Lake District National Park and is close to a variety of local amenities and beautiful fell walks from your doorstep. The property benefits from its own designated off-road parking space, perfect for when it gets busy during the summer months! On the ground floor, you'll find a spacious kitchen/diner, perfect for whipping up a feast for the whole family to enjoy as you recount the day's activities. After a day of exploring, retire to the sitting room where sumptuous sofas and a TV will help you unwind. Head upstairs to find a spacious shower room, perfect for washing away the day's adventures, and two bedrooms, one king and the other a single, both with plenty of storage. Make your way to the second floor, where you'll find a twin bedroom with breath-taking fell views, and a stylish bathroom with a bath and an overhead shower. Stroll around the village; next door you'll find the village store, where you can pick up any necessities, the warm and inviting Ivy House, and the welcoming pubs of Coledale Inn and the Royal Oak, where you can treat your loved ones to a meal out, and the dog-friendly Jaspers Coffee House, where you can relax with a cup of coffee and a light bite. Those seeking something more exhilarating should head to nearby Whintlatter Forest Park, where you can explore the treetops at Go Ape, bike rides along scenic cycling tracks, and an adventure playground for the little ones to enjoy. Keswick is close by, and there you can see a show at the Theatre By The Lake, kayak out to the picturesque Derwent Island, visit the Keswick Museum and the Derwent Pencil Museum, and dine in style at the Thyme Bistro, Brasserie 31, and Derwent Walker Cocktail Bar and Restaurant. Grisedale Pike, Skiddaw, and Grasmoor, three towering mountains, are all within striking distance of your remarkable position. Grasmere, further along the road, is where you'll discover the former home of William Wordsworth, the Grasmere Brewery, and the Michelin-starred restaurant Forest Side. Holme Rigg promises an unforgettable stay in the Lakes.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.

About the location

BRAITHWAITE

Keswick 3 miles.

Between the magnificent northern lakes of Derwentwater and Bassenthwaite, lies the village of Braithwaite. Still retaining much of its traditional appeal, the Coledale Beck runs through the village with whitewashed Lakeland cottages, two village shops and two real ale Inns each brimming with character! Between Braithwaite and Buttermere is the beautiful Newlands Valley, while picturesque Bassenthwaite Lake is well worth a visit. From a gentle countryside ramble to a challenging hike up Skiddaw, there really is something for everyone. Visit Mirehouse, a grand house and gardens on the shores of the lake with an open-air theatre, or take a trip around the lake. Lake District Wildlife Park, Dodd Wood, Derwentwater, and Keswick with its wide range of attractions, are also within easy reach.

Note: Sorry, the wood-burning stove is not in use.
