Description

Yattus is sure to appeal to the more discerning client. This picturesque early 17th Century cottage has been beautifully restored and luxuriously furnished by its current owners, retaining many of the original features. Several references to the cottage and its former owner are made in a book written on the locality. Yattus is situated in the beautiful village of Eskdale Green on the more peaceful western fringe of the Lake District. Ideally located for those who wish to enjoy the beauty of the Lakes without the crowds. Many walks, sights and places of interest are in the local vicinity, such as Scafell Pike, Stanley Force, Hardknott Pass and Fort, Muncaster Castle, Blea Tarn, the Wasdale Valley and the famous 'Laal Ratty' Miniature Railway, running from Ravenglass to Eskdale. There are 2 very good traditional pubs in the village, The King George IV and the Bower House, along with a post office and village shop.

About the local area

The Western Lake District is an area of great diversity and contrasts, with famous lakes, awesome mountains and dramatic coastline. Home to Britain’s deepest lake, Wast Water (86m metres deep) and England’s highest mountain, Scafell Pike (977 metres high).

Much of Western Lake District lies within the Lake District National Park and includes many National Nature Reserves, where, at some, guided walks are available.

Each valley has its own special characteristics, from the austerity of Wasdale to the lush green of Eskdale and the peace of Buttermere Valley. Then of course there is the beautiful Crummock Water and Loweswater.

At the coast visitors will find busy harbours, award-winning beaches and dramatic cliffs. Situated on the shores of the Solway Firth is Silloth with wide uncrowded beaches and views across the water to the Scottish hills (Due to tides not suitable for swimming). This coastal area has been designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Down the coast is Maryport, with its Lake District Coast Aquarium and Maritime Museum. A short distance inland is the old market town of Cockermouth, where a market has been held here since 1221 and also famous as the birth place of William and Dorothy Wordsworth.

What our customers say

V Hodgkinson - April 2012

Fabulous cottage, lots of history, great location.


E Roberts - November 2011

The photos dont do it justice, there are many more rooms than are shown, when booking was concerned the bedrooms might have been a bit dodgy as there weren't any photos, they were however decorated to a better standard then the rooms shown, the garden is superb the kids shed/ den isn't highlighted and is good for the right age, all in all it seems to undersell itself


S Bernard - July 2011

The property was perfectly clean and was extremely well equipped even the den in the garden was full of toys to entertain the little ones. It was very warm and the linen provided was of great quality. In all a very lovely property.
