Why they chose this property

This is a wonderfully tranquil and beautiful part of the Lake District National Park. You are close to a fantastic Lake - Ennerdale Lake which is as clear and clean as you can find anywhere. Ennerdale has forestry tracks and which is great for cycling. You have great views of Pillar, you can see down in to Buttermere valley from the tops, and Red Pike, High Stile, and many others provide great walking. The walk around the Lake provides a taste of what lies further up Wild Ennerdale valley. If you like the beach, you are less than 25 mins from the coast by car.
You do not get traffic jams on the roads or queues of walkers up the fell paths. If you have not tried this part of the Lake District you should come and have a look!
A well equipped, modern and spacious property, ideal for families, and family groups , and groups of friends.
We have Sky Sports 1 to 5, Sky Movies , along with Sky Box Sets including Game of Thrones and Others

What makes this property unique

The property is a minute from the pub, which does good food too. It has a bar and restaurant. We have great views looking on to fields and the River Ehen and can see the fells from the property. We like looking at the horses when and sheep when they are grazing there.
The garden is South facing and enjoys the sun all day.
You see the sun set over the back, and it gets dark at 11pm in the summer, so can enjoy the conservatory till late.
The property is modern and spacious, sleeps 10 and our children enjoy the table tennis, snooker. We have Sky Sports 1 to 5, Sky Movies , along with Sky Box Sets including Game of Thrones and Others. You can BBQ (provided upon request) south facing garden overlooking the field and the River Ehen.
