Milldam Cottage, Coniston - ein Cottage für 4 Gäste in 2 Schlafzimmern

Milldam Cottage, Coniston sits among a row of picture-perfect whitewashed cottages; so charming they were immortalised by renowned Lake District artist Alfred Heaton. The cottage exudes quiet character both inside and out; its chocolate-box exterior hints at the warmth and charm waiting within. Step through the door and you'll find a welcoming interior furnished in harmony with the cottage's history; an Inglenook fireplace, uneven slate floors, and exposed beams blend with leather sofas, a wooden rocking chair, and an old sewing machine table cleverly repurposed as a TV stand.

Whether you visit in summer or winter, Milldam Cottage makes an idyllic retreat. On sunny days, enjoy the terraced garden with its sweeping fell views and walking trails right from your doorstep. In the cooler months, return from your adventures to a roaring wood-burning stove, creating a cosy haven no matter the weather. Set above the village of Coniston and reached by a steep, winding track, the cottage is just a short walk from shops, pubs, and restaurants.

The entrance porch is ideal for storing muddy boots and outdoor gear. The character-filled lounge features leather seating arranged around the Inglenook fireplace; perfect for relaxing with a book or watching TV beside the crackling stove. The fully equipped dining kitchen offers everything you need to prepare a delicious meal, including an electric oven and hob, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, microwave, and coffee machine, with space to gather at the dining table.

Upstairs, two inviting double bedrooms await: one with a king-size bed and exposed beams, the other with a cosy double bed. The family bathroom includes a shower over the bath, hand basin, and WC.

All electricity, bed linen, towels, and an initial supply of logs are included. A cot and stairgate are available, and there is private parking for two cars just 200 yards from the property. The terraced garden features outdoor seating, a BBQ for guest use, and stunning fell views. Two dogs are welcome at a supplement of £25 per dog.
