Description

Spindle Coppice is a beautiful detached character cottage situated approximately three quarters of a mile from Skelwith Bridge and virtually on the Cumbria Way. The cottage has one of the most spectacular views of the Langdale valley and Pikes you will ever see. Set in a walker's paradise - walks from the door include walks to Elterwater, Colwith Force, The Langdale Pikes, Park Fell and Tarn Hows. The Skelwith Bridge Hotel and Chesters Cafe is a twenty minute walk, and other cafes and pubs in Elterwater are a couple of miles away with a well-stocked Co-op at Chapel Stile. More shops, pubs and restaurants are located in Ambleside four miles away.

Spindle Coppice is a beautifully presented house with quality fixtures and fittings.

It is really spacious with lots of storage space and different areas in which to relax. We were a party of 4 and appreciated the two tier pricing as we didn’t use the third bedroom. Most of all the location is superb with the most amazing views. Lovely walks from the doorstep and also a short drive away. We recommend Chester’s by the River for coffees and lunches. Great for everyone but lots of veggie and vegan options which was a bonus.

A gorgeous location with perfect hill and countryside views from the property as well as the table on the terrace.

The property was spotless in terms of cleanliness and had the perfect space for us all to enjoy. The garden area was secure for our dog and the gate at the top led us straight across the road to a path up to Black Cragg. My only small suggestion would be for thicker mattress toppers on the beds as we found them rather hard and maybe few more items in the kitchen such as more cutlery and pots and a working tin opener. I would definitely consider renting this lovely property again.
