Blencathra is a tastefully converted Grade II listed barn situated on Blakebeck Farm just two miles from the unspoilt Lakeland village of Mungrisdale. The barn has an upside-down layout with a large open plan living area on the first floor. Lovely views of the local fells and Blencathra surround the barn and the owner’s sheep and lambs graze in the meadows around the cottages, along with alpacas and donkeys. Local walks from the doorstep are plentiful. Cyclists will enjoy the quiet country lanes and golfers will find Keswick Golf Course one and a half miles away. The popular bustling market town of Keswick with an abundance of interesting shops, eateries and a good leisure centre is seven and a half miles away. Stretch your legs along the edge of Derwentwater or through the Borrowdale Valley and pick up the Keswick Launch to cruise back again. Towards the south, Ullswater and Thirlmere are a short drive away and both offer spectacular scenery, challenging walks and plentiful activities. Shop, pub and restaurant 2 miles.

Blencathra can be booked together with The Garth (CC112156) to accommodate up to 12 guests.

This was a return visit to Blakebeck, having stayed previously in The Garth.
This was a return visit to Blakebeck, having stayed previously in The Garth. As with that cottage, Blencathra is well-equipped, comfortable, warm and clean. Views from the windows are beautiful especially given the 'upside down' layout, which works really well. The games room is a bonus but the main attraction for our children is the animals, particularly the donkeys! There are lovely countryside walks direct from the door. The hosts are very friendly and welcoming and the location is perfect for easy access to attractions and the motorway. I am sure we will be returning to Blencathra in the future!

We had a wonderful time here.
We had a wonderful time here. The owners were extremely friendly and helpful. The cottage is so well equipped! We couldn’t have thought of anything else it needed. It was amazing to have the animals on site, especially to entertain a toddler. The views are beautiful and walks from the door. Lots to do within a 25 min drive. Will definitely return Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo
