About this property
LITTLE HOW, pet friendly, character holiday cottage in Grasmere
Little How in Grasmere, Cumbria sleeps four guests in two bedrooms.
The living areas in this cottage consist of a kitchen/diner with electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer and dishwasher, a sitting room with Smart TV and woodburning stove, a study and a boot room with washing machine and tumble dryer. The bedrooms consist of two super-king-size rooms serviced by a shower room and a ground-floor bathroom. Outside there is off-road parking for seven cars and a shared, large garden with picnic table and access to woodland walks. Within 0.8 miles there is a shop and pub. Sorry, no pets and no smoking. WiFi, fuel, power, starter for woodburning stove, bed linen and towels are all included in the price. Little How is a wonderful setting for a getaway in Cumbria. Note: This property has a locked door leading to another holiday home. Note: Please take car on the open-tread staircase with low ceiling. Note: The parking is shared with another property.
Amenities: Biomass central heating. Electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, washing machine, and condensing tumble dryer. Smart TV and WiFi. Fuel, power inc. in rent. Bed linen and towels inc. in rent. Highchair can be provided on request, please note no cot is provided. Off-road parking for 2 cars. Large garden (some shared areas). One well behaved pet. Sorry no smoking. Shop and pub 0.8 miles. Note: This property has a locked door leading to another property Thorney How Ref: 1110308 Note: Please take care on the open-tread staircase with low ceiling. "During December to March 2025 there will be building work on an adjacent property, which is mainly internal"; Although we are actively managing the impact of this there may be some noise during the working week"
Region: Impressive mountains, open fells and clear-water lakes, the Lake District has it all. From walking in the mountains to exhilarating watersports or just a gentle cruise on a steam-powered yacht, Cumbria is the perfect holiday destination.
Town: The picturesque village of Grasmere, located in the heart of the Lake District National Park, is perhaps best known as the residence of William Wordsworth, who once referred to it as "the most beautiful spot that man has ever discovered." The Wilson family has been making gingerbread for over six decades at The Grasmere Gingerbread Shop. In addition, the village contains a number of shops, pubs, a 13th-century church, and Grasmere Lake. Every August, Grasmere Sports is held, where participants compete in a variety of sports, including Cumberland wrestling. The town of Ambleside and Lake Winderemere are only eight kilometres away, where you will find shops, pubs, and restaurants, as well as the Bridge House, which is one of the most photographed structures in the Lake District. Lake Windermere offers cruises, boat trips, and watersports, and the towns of Windermere and Keswick are within driving distance. Grasmere is an excellent location for a Lake District retreat.
