As you enter through the front door, you step into a fabulous open plan living area with a feature stone fireplace fitted with a wood burning stove, TV and dining area.
There's a lovely cottagey feel about the accommodation continuing into the kitchen, which combines country charm with modern convenience.

A particular feature of this property is the sun terrace which is situated to take full advantage of the spectacular countryside views - the perfect spot to sit and relax after a busy days sightseeing in the Lakes.

Spellbinding scenery, spectacular mountains and shimmering lakes combine to make this the most scenic area of Britain.

Bring your mountain bike for some of the best trail action in the country or take a steamer trip across Lake Windermere. There's so much to see and do, you'll want to stay at the Southwaite Green Cottages any time of year just to take it all in.
Where you’ll be staying
COCKERMOUTH
Bassenthwaite Lake 7 miles; Keswick 13 miles.
The small country market town of Cockermouth is situated in the quiet north-western part of the Lake District, a largely undiscovered and unspoilt area, yet only 13 miles from Keswick. The town is famous as the birthplace of both William Wordsworth and Fletcher Christian (of Mutiny on the Bounty fame) and Wordsworth’s Georgian family home, on the main street, is now a popular visitor attraction, owned by the National Trust. Cockermouth offers a good variety of shops, pubs and places to eat, but (of course) the main attraction of the area is the beautiful scenery and excellent walking in the northern lakes – Bassenthwaite Lake, Ennerdale Water and Derwent Water.
