"This property was perfect."
Great location for walking with and without a car and also for the steamer which was well worth using to get to certain locations. Very well equipped for a group that enjoyed lots of self catering. Able to make use of the outside space as the weather so lovely One thought is whilst we always closed the gates when we were out for security we soon realised it might be more about stopping stray cows coming in on their way with the farmer. We watched a farmer close them on our behalf!

Where you’ll be staying
WATERMILLOCK
Pooley Bridge 2.5 miles; Glenridding 6.2 miles; Penrith 8.5 miles.
The elevated scattered village of Watermillock runs parallel to the main road alongside Ullswater Lake and is mainly a farming community. Just 2.5 miles away is Pooley Bridge with its array of amenities which sits on the northern shore of the lake in the Lake District National Park. The name Pooley originated due to the forming of a large pool, which was left by the fast flowing River Eamont. Pooley Bridge has many traditional inns and tempting tea rooms, plus the Ullswater Steamers depart from the village, from where a tranquil cruise down the lake to the villages of Glenridding and Howtown can be enjoyed. Glenridding (meaning glen overgrown with bracken) is a small tourist village with a range of local shops, cafes and restaurants. There are numerous walks with breathtaking views nearby, plus a short walk up to Dunmallard Hill reveals fascinating Iron-Age remains, whilst the towns of Penrith and Keswick are within driving distance. Watermillock is an ideal base for a cottage holiday stay in the stunning Lake District.
