About the local area
Ullswater is the Lake District’s second largest lake at nine miles long. Located in the eastern side of Cumbria, it bends and twists its way through dramatic mountain scenery on one side and a gently curving shoreline of green fields and woodland on the other.
Boating centres and marinas nestle unobtrusively on the lake edge, perfect for the water sports enthusiasts, or visitors can relax and enjoy the scenery from one of the steamers that have sailed the lake since 1855.
Many of the Lake District’s many walks have their starting point from around Ullswater, including the renowned trek to Helvellyn’s summit via Striding Edge. Or for the less energetic there are many low-level walks through beautiful countryside.
Of note is Glenridding which sits on the south western shore and is surrounded by the fells with wonderful scenic views. Pooley Bridge on the northern shore, with its 16th Century Bridge, Lakeland greystone houses and quaint teashops and Patterdale just to the south of Ullswater, cradled by mountains.

What our customers say
James R Davies - April 2013
An excellent property, ideally located to explore the Northern lakes.
L Yeats - March 2013
The property was well presented, clean and tidy. Kitchen was well equipped. Despite the bitterly cold weather we were cosy and warm. No criticisms.
Miss D Walker - July 2012
The cottage is a lovely find. Much more spacious than anticipated, spotlessly clean and the most amazing views.
