The property

Coniston 2.1 miles.

Cragg Cottage is a magnificent cottage resting in Torver, Cumbria, with far-reaching countryside views, private driveway parking, a bubbling hot tub and effortless access to the landscapes around Coniston.

Suited to two couples or a small family looking for a high-quality Lake District base, this attractive stone cottage blends character, thoughtful design and a location made for walking boots, bikes, lake adventures and long evenings outdoors.

Begin your stay in the heated entrance porch, a useful welcome after time spent on the fells or along the shoreline.

From here, the central hall leads into a beautifully finished kitchen/diner, where slate flagstone flooring sets a timeless country tone.

Cook with ease using the electric double oven, induction hob, microwave, fridge/freezer and dishwasher, then gather at the breakfast bar for four as the Smart TV plays softly in the background.

The living/dining room offers a more atmospheric setting for evening meals, with a circular dining table and window seats positioned to make the most of the garden and open countryside.

As daylight fades, the woodburning stove becomes the natural centre of the room, while the Smart TV and Blu-ray player provide relaxed entertainment.

Outside, the landscaped garden brings together a terrace, lawn, patio, furniture and a hot tub, offering a scenic spot for drinks, dining and stargazing after days in the open air.

Upstairs, two king-size bedrooms each feature a TV and en-suite facilities, with one including both a bath and walk-in shower and the other offering a walk-in shower.

Torver has a pub nearby and places guests close to the Crake and Woodland Valleys, known for wild garlic, bluebells and rich birdlife.

Coniston is ideal for walking the Old Man of Coniston, visiting the Ruskin Museum or heading to Coniston Boating Centre for water sports.

Brantwood, on the eastern shore of Coniston Water, offers historic interiors, gardens, arts and remarkable lake views.

Ambleside, Bowness and Windermere are also within reach for varied Lake District outings.

Let the landscape lead the way from Cragg Cottage.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £300.
