This is one of three beautifully appointed Cumbrian cottages just outside the charming, small village of Armathwaite in the beautiful Eden Valley, between the Lake District and the Northern Pennines. The broad River Eden runs through the village, with sandstone cliffs plunging down to the river, one of England's finest salmon and trout rivers, with Armathwaite Castle occupying a superb position on the banks. Just a few miles up the valley is Long Meg and Her Daughters, the second largest stone circle England. The circle has been stirring imaginations for centuries and is steeped in folklore and legend. It stands, rather unassumingly, in a field down a small country lane.

Overlooking the Pennines, these two beautifully appointed cottages are ideally located for holidays and relaxing breaks exploring the Scottish borders and western coastline as well as the northern fells and the Lake District National Park. Adjoining barn conversions situated on a pet-oriented smallholding next to a dairy farm in the undiscovered Eden Valley, midway between Penrith and Carlisle. Set by Hadrian’s Wall and the impressive medieval castle, this cathedral city is also home to museums and galleries. Day trips can be enjoyed in Ullswater and the Lakes, and the nearby village of Armathwaite (1.5 miles) provides amenities, a variety of walks and outdoor activities and a rural station offering scenic journeys on the famous Settle–Carlisle railway. Local walk itineraries and touring routes for cars provided.
