There is private access to Grasmere lake-shore. Free parking is available on site.

Each of the stylish rooms has an en-suite bathroom, a flat-screen TV, free WiFi, tea and coffee facilities and luxury toiletries. Most of the rooms have lake and mountain views. Our latest and very popular addition is an infrared sauna, which is free to use for house guests.

Opening hours at The Distiller's Arms gastro-pub, just a short stroll away, vary through the year - please ask as this may affect your breakfast options.

+ The room was comfortable and had plenty of tea and coffee to make. The house itself was in a stunning location and the real benefit of this accommodation over others we've stayed at in Grasmere is there is car parking which isn't always guaranteed in the village. The grounds are lovely, even at this time of the year and the accommodation has fishing rights in the lake which I wish I'd have known before coming. The place is pet friendly and is welcoming for dogs, which we appreciated. Breakfast is a continental one, so please don't expect a cooked breakfast.

+ Lovely comfortable place to stay. Ideally located to walk into Grasmere. Friendly and helpful host.
− Only a Continental breakfast available oats with berries and plenty of fresh fruit along with a chocolate muffin. Maybe also could provide a toaster to make your own toast.
