Beautiful location, and a nice cottage to stay in. The views are breathtaking. If you are taking a dog, be aware it’s a shared garden front and back, also, the hill is steep to get there, especially when it rains. The neighbours are friendly.

A lovely cottage with difficult road access

2 Mill Dam Cottage is about a 20 minute uphill walk from Coniston town centre. We found the cottage comfortable, well equipped and well cared for. Beautiful weather meant we could sit out on the table and chairs in the garden. The road up to the cottage from the main road is steep, narrow and twisty, making it a challenging drive. Supermarket vans cannot get up here, you will have to drive down and meet them on the main road. There is plenty of parking space, but this is about 200m away from the cottage.
