Panoramic views to Great Dodd and Helvellyn
These stone built farm holiday cottages look out upon some of the finest scenery in the Lake District, including Great Dodd and beyond to Helvellyn. There is the peaceful atmosphere of St Johns-in-the-Vale nearby with the challenging walking country of High Rigg, and rising up behind the properties are the lower slopes of Blencathra which can be reached from the door. Set on a working sheep farm, just off the Penrith to Keswick Road (A66), it is a central touring base for the Lake District. The properties, maintained to a very good standard, are tastefully furnished and decorated. The children can enjoy the climbing frame, slide and swings in an enclosed play area. The traditional village of Threlkeld, 1 mile, has two excellent pubs serving food. The bustling market town of Keswick, 6 miles, with a selection of shops, tourist attractions, restaurants and pubs. Lakeside walks at Thirlmere and boating trips on Derwent water are a must. Travelling along a country lane through the Vale will bring you to the prehistoric site of Castlerigg Stone Circle.
