Forester’s Cottage is a delightful pet-friendly and family-friendly cottage, set in a quiet location on the edge of the Grizedale Forest but within easy driving access to the popular areas of the Lake District.
This charming cottage is a semi-detached property that has been tastefully renovated to provide comfortable and cosy accommodation. Guests and their pets can enjoy the large, enclosed garden on a sunny afternoon or relax in front of the woodburning stove in the lounge on a winter’s evening.
