A traditional cottage with Lakeland views and open-plan living spaces

Originally built as two cottages, Lacet Cottage has been refurbished as a luxury self-catering cottage to create spacious, open-plan living spaces with heritage features. The tranquil spot is just minutes from Ullswater by car and has a whole host of walks right from the front door.

The interior of the 19th-century building is calm and contemporary with splashes of colour to mirror the colours of the Lake District landscape. Each room has an eclectic mix of modern furniture and antique pieces and pictures (borrowed from Hutton John), paired with bold fabrics and colours.

It has two bedrooms (one with a feature roll-top bath), an open-plan kitchen diner, a cosy snug, a separate living room with a log burner and TV, a boot room and separate utility area, and two private gardens. Please note there are 3 steps down to the dining room and the main stairs are steep.

HOME FARM HOUSE

Sleeps: 6

Home Farm House was built in 1849 by Andrew Fleming Hudleston as the gatehouse to the Estate and was part of a working farm. Restored and refurbished in 2017, the house sits in its own grounds with plenty of space to sit and take in the wonderful views of Little Mell Fell and beyond. Walk into Hutton and over the little stone bridge and you’ll find some footpaths and bridleways.

HIGHGATE

Sleeps: 10

Highgate was built in 1770 by Andrew “the Counsellor” Hudleston. A very spacious house, now fully modernised, it is perfect for families and larger groups. The house stands on the edge of a small working farm combining Cumbrian life with easy access to Penrith and Keswick. Feel free to walk in the fields in front of the house and over to Brow Wood or take the footpath to Dacre.

Four contemporary cabins, immersed in nature. Where the outdoors meets luxury. Sleeps: 2
