Thwaite Hill Cottage, Thornthwaite

Thwaite Hill Cottage2 bedrooms, Sleeps 4 + 1 Baby.

Peace and views are the real draw here: this detached cottage sits in the tiny hamlet of Seldom Seen at Thornthwaite, on the slopes of Whinlatter, with first-floor outlooks towards Skiddaw and Latrigg. Sleeping 4 in 2 bedrooms and allowing 2 dogs, it suits walkers, cyclists and anyone who wants a quieter Lake District base without feeling completely cut off. The living room is upstairs, so the best of the scenery is part of everyday time by the wood burner.

The sleeping arrangement is worth noting before you book. Both bedrooms are on the ground floor and each has a double bed, but the bathroom is reached through one of them, so this is a better fit for a family or one couple than for two independent couples. A porch with decking, a terraced hillside garden, bike storage and a separate utility room with washer/dryer all add practical appeal for active stays, while on-road parking keeps things straightforward.
