4 Low Rake - Cottage in Glenridding with Views | Cottage in Glenridding
2 Bedroom Cottage in Glenridding
Perched on the track to Helvellyn's summit, 4 Low Rake is a beautifully refurbished ex-miners' cottage offering a unique blend of history and contemporary comfort. Located at the edge of Glenridding village, it's an ideal choice for couples or small families eager to immerse themselves in the stunning scenery and attractions of the Lake District.
What truly sets 4 Low Rake apart is its unbeatable location and elevated position, providing breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding mountains. Despite feeling wonderfully secluded amidst the fells, you're just a short walk (15-20 minutes) down to Glenridding village and Ullswater, and only 6 minutes to the welcoming Travellers Rest pub.
The owners have meticulously refurbished the cottage, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Inside, expect a blend of traditional features and modern design, enhanced by a great use of colour and local artwork. The comfortable lounge features a cosy log burner, a deep-cushioned sofa, and two easy chairs - perfect for relaxing while still admiring the views from the window. The modern kitchen is thoughtfully laid out with an electric oven, induction hob, washer, dryer, microwave, kettle, toaster, and a small dining table (please note: no dishwasher). Upstairs, the double bedroom at the front of the house offers the most magnificent views across the valley, and the bathroom includes a good-sized bath with an overhead shower and a heated towel rail.
Step outside to a small area with a bench, ideal for enjoying a quiet moment and surveying the view towards Birkhouse Moor. Parking for one car is conveniently located just 20 meters away. With walks starting directly from your door, you may find your car stays put! You have the choice of ascending Helvellyn via the main path that passes the cottage (giving you a head start!), or heading down to Ullswater Lake for a picturesque lakeshore walk or a memorable trip on a Ullswater Steamer - surely one of the UK's most scenic boat rides.
