Description

Orchard Cottage is a historic, two-bedroom holiday retreat nestled in the quaint, Cumbrian village of Troutbeck.

Brimming with character, featuring antique décor and vintage furnishings, this charming abode offers well-appointed interiors and a superb location just a short stroll from the closest amenities, making an ideal base for a family or group of friends looking for a relaxing staycation within The Lake District National Park. Park up roadside near your new home-from-home, breathing in the fresh air before you step into Orchard Cottage. Inside, be instantly transported back in time as you're greeted by a warm, open-plan living space, complete with flagstone flooring, wooden beams, and all the facilities you'll need for a self-catered escape.

Get to work in the home's excellently-equipped kitchen, preparing a delicious meal that can be savoured around the dining table with seating for four. To relax, kick back in the sitting area, where you and your loved ones can enjoy a film or two on the stunning wall-mounted Smart TV as you're kept toasty by the crackling flames of a woodburning stove.

In the evenings, head upstairs to refresh with a bath or a refreshing shower before you catch a valuable rest in either a plush king-size or twin bedroom. Start each day off with a fresh cup of coffee using the coffee maker, which you can nurse out front on the furnished patio.

When ready, set out to explore what's on offer in Troutbeck and the surrounding areas. A brief walk will bring you to The Old Post Office Tea Room, where you can stock up on supplies before sipping a calming cup of tea or tucking into a spot of lunch. A short journey in the opposite direction will lead you to a choice of pubs, the Mortal Man and then the Queens Head a little further, which serves traditional pub fare for those seeking a hearty meal to fuel their adventures.

You'll find an abundance of exciting things to do and see within a short car trip of your new home, whether that's ambling through the serene Stagshaw Gardens or observing the breathtaking Stock Ghyll Waterfall in Ambleside, visiting the National Trust sites of Wray Castle, Hill Top, or Townend, experiencing nature at its fullest within the Holehird Gardens or upon the peaks of Helvellyn or Scafell Pike, or taking a boat ride along the magnificent Lake Windermere from the Windermere Jetty Museum.

All of this and more is yours to enjoy when you choose a stay at Orchard Cottage.

What a gem, we were really pleased to have found Orchard Cottage.

Great location, a home from home and a warm and welcoming cottage from the first time we stepped inside. It had everything you needed, it was warm and cozy with great character. The Woodburner was lovely and the heating and bathroom underfloor were lovely. Parking right outside, walks from the door and two lovely pubs within easy walk. Located in a good place to tour the Lakes from. This all gave a great recipe for a lovely relaxing and chilled holiday.

We visit The Lakes almost every year, and Orchard Cottage is one of the nicest cottages we’ve stayed in.

It had everything we needed, and is within comfortable walking distance of 2 pubs.
