Luxury self-catering accommodation in Cumbria
Tucked into valleys and perched on the side of hills with uninterrupted rural views, our luxury cottages are dotted throughout the heart of Cumbria's amazing rural countryside. Pack good hiking boots and strong binoculars.
Idyllic, luxury accommodation in rolling green fields with all the amenities you need at the end of a jam-packed day of exploration. Our Cumbrian homes are the perfect base for exploring the Lake District National Park's peaks and valleys. This huge area stretches from the Lakes over to the North Pennines, and covers part of the Yorkshire Dales. From a farmhouse or cottage setting, hike around Keswick and Windermere, or march the well-worn tracks beside Hadrian's Wall, on trails to suit most abilities.
Cumbria developed from the old counties of Cumberland, Westmorland and parts of North Lancashire and North Yorkshire, and as such, is England's second-largest county. There are several centres to visit; the old mill town of Staveley, and Kirkby Lonsdale, with a weekly market and bustling heart. Walking is the best-known activity around here, but there's angling, fishing and nature-spotting, as well as shopping down the tiny streets of the towns – all from the comfort of a luxury holiday home.
