The property itself was once the former farmhouse to the surrounding land and countryside. Renovated in 2020, this beautiful modern cottage offers well-proportioned rooms and is perfect for couples and families to relax, unwind and explore the sights of the South Cumbrian Coast. You have the best of both worlds with easy access to Humphrey Head beach, a popular tourist spot for beach lovers which is 2 miles away and you are right on the border of The Lake District National Park. You have it all, with walks, great cycling routes, stunning scenery, local pubs and great shopping.
Hillside Farm Cottage sleeps up to four guests with a kingsize bedroom and a twin. The contemporary bathroom features a bath with a separate shower cubicle and heated towel rail. Also upstairs is a small room which can be used for quiet time, maybe reading a book with a glass of wine and is large enough to hold a travel cot. Downstairs is a bright and modern living room that provides plenty of easy seating, flat screen TV and a warm atmosphere to relax after a day of sightseeing. The open plan kitchen/dining room is well-equipped, includes a dishwasher and offers everything you need to prepare a hearty breakfast before a day of adventure or a family meal in an evening. At the rear you’ll find an enclosed lawned garden, with colourful flower beds and garden furniture so you can soak up the sun and enjoy wonderful views to the coast and the sea.
Allithwaite is a short drive from both Grange-Over-Sands and Cartmel and is only about 7 miles from the southern tip of Lake Windermere with easy access to the higher fells. The local pub is a short walk away, where a warm welcome is guaranteed and delicious food is always on offer. Grange-Over-Sands and surrounding districts offer an interesting selection of historic seaside resorts and quaint rural villages. Grange is an elegant town with a long, sweeping promenade fronting the bay, lined with antique and collector’s shops and cafés. Cartmel, famous for its priory and race meetings, is well worth a visit, if only to sample the local sticky toffee pudding. For family fun, take a ride on The Lakeside and Haverthwaite Steam Railway which connects directly to The Windermere Lake Cruises at Lakeside, opening a delightful sailing trip to Ambleside and Bowness-on Windermere on England’s longest lake.

Lovely little cottage, very clean and cozy. The cottage was within driving distance of a number of locations. There is a really friendly pub 3 mins walk away.

We had a great stay at this cozy cottage. The cake and milk were a lovely surprise on our arrival. Highly recommend the pheasant pub at the bottom of the road, but definitely book in advance. Beds were really comfy, nice and warm home. And the area to take your boots off after a day's walking was great.The views were amazing from every window.

Lovely cottage, spacious and well equipped. Very clean and lovely cake on arrival. Absolutely no complaints to be had. Only a short drive to many different villages. Grange over Sands has pretty much everything, small shops and plenty of cafes along with a promenade to have a lovely walk down.Holker hall is nearby for a nice walk and good cafe, plenty of foodie pubs too, including one just down the road.My mum isn't able to walk far but there were plenty of places to rent a tramper mobility scooter (including Holker Hall) so she didn't have to miss any of the countrysideWould definitely stay again and recommend to others wanting a comfy place to explore the lakes
