Description

Beck Cottage is a charming end of terrace cottage, dating back to the 1800s, sitting in an enviable location in Trouttbeck Bridge at the foot of the Troutbeck Valley, and located in between the popular towns of Ambleside and Windermere in the Lake District National Park.
Beck Cottage has been recently renovated to provide modern and comfortable accommodation for up to four guests in two bedrooms.

The cottage perfectly blends character and traditional charm with modern day conveniences including a contemporary and well equipped kitchen, fast fibre WiFi and central heating throughout. Sleeping four people in two bedrooms and with it's own private garden/patio area at the rear of the property and a large lawned area to the side for the use of guests it is ideal for couples, friends or families.

The old part of Troutbeck Bridge is a pretty hamlet and perfectly located between the towns of Ambleside (3 miles) and Windermere (1 mile) where there are plenty of shops, cafes and amenities yet you are tucked away from the hustle and bustle during the busy summer months. Whether you like to walk, cycle or take to the water, there is plenty to keep you busy here. The eastern fells, Kentmere Horseshoe and the High Street Range are easily accessible directly from the cottage as are many other walks in the Troutbeck Valley. Mountain bikers will love Troutbeck and Jenkin Crag - an old bridleway that traverses Wansfell Pike - and watersports lovers can go paddle boarding, sailing, canoeing, kayaking or windsurfing on Lake Windermere.

For anybody wishing to leave their cars and take advantage of public transport the bus stop is 50 yards away at the end of the lane with bus links to virtually anywhere within the National Park and the greater Cumbria area.

Other attractions nearby include The World of Beatrix Potter, the Steamboat museum and The Lakes Aquarium. For a change of scene hop on board a ferry to the western shores of the lake and explore the National Trust's Hill Top and Wray Castle. For those looking for a challenge you can hike to the top of Scafell Pike (the tallest mountain in England) or test your metal at Go Ape in Grizedale Forest.

There are two bedrooms; one king bed room and one twin bed room. Both bedrooms share a shower room (sorry no bath). There is a separate dining kitchen and a cosy lounge with a cast iron coal effect gas stove.

The kitchen is equipped with electric built-under oven, gas hob, integrated dishwasher and refrigerator including freezer compartment. Please be aware that there is no washing machine.

The property has gas central heating, which guests control by a thermostat. All linen, towels, hot water, gas and electricity are included and there is a dedicated Netflix subscription on the TV.

The cottage has the added bonus of private parking for two family sized cars.

There is a small garden at the rear with lawn, patio area and table and 4 chairs.

To the side of the cottage is a large lawned garden area for guests' use.

Pets are not allowed at Beck Cottage.

Beck Cottage welcomes guests all year round with short breaks also available.

Access details:
Beck Cottage is unsuitable for wheelchair access.
It is a 160 year old stone property with the staircase to the first floor being steeper than it would be in a modern property. If you have severe mobility issues you may find this cottage unsuitable.
The external access to the property is via 2 steps at the front and is a very low single step at the rear.
Access to the patio is via 2 steps but there is a large side garden with level access.

October 2024 Olwyn’s property is a great find. It’s set back from the main road beyond some garages and is really quiet. Nice little garden area you can sit out in. Perfect for my son and I - well located for getting to good walks and cycle rides all around the Lakes. It’s a really comfortable property, comfy beds and fluffy towels, nicely appointed shower room and everything you could need for equipment in the kitchen. We really felt at home and I thoroughly recommend for a couple or family.

,· September 2024 From our initial enquiry to arriving at the property. Olwyn was warm, welcoming and responsive to all our questions. The property was very easy to find. We were struck how spotlessly clean it was, with everything you’d need to have a great comfortable stay. There were lots of useful maps and information on walks and things to do in the area. We’d recommend staying at Beck Cottage. Thanks Olwyn, we shall be back!

,· August 2024 Homely and well equipped cottage. Host is excellent and so is the location. Parking for 2 cars. Clearly professional hosts and it shows. A home from home. You will love the convenience of this if youre looking for somewhere private but close to everything. Note to those booking for longer stays, there is no washing machine. We were informed beforehand so had packed accordingly. Thank you for having us Olwyn x

,· July 2024 Lovely little cottage from which to explore Windermere and the surrounding area. The kitchen and living area is well appointed which is ideal if you’re looking to stay in. Otherwise we tended to walk into Windermere for pubs / restaurants - the scenic route via Orrest Head was well worth it for the views. Car is essential if you’re looking to explore further. Recommend this stay!
