3 Bedroom Cottage in Grasmere
Welcome to No. 2 Town Head Cottages, an historic and characterful Grade II listed building in the Vale of Grasmere at the heart of the English Lake District. Dating back to 1688, the cottage is an excellent base for walkers, hikers, bikers, and all those looking to explore the majestic Lakeland fells.
This property is full of character, with a simple, rustic style that reflects its age and original features. Due to the cottage's age, heating is provided by storage heaters, which can take up to 24 hours to fully warm up. Guests may also notice a few quirks - part of the charm of a historic home! While it's not a modern space, the cottage offers a cosy, authentic experience in a beautiful location.
Upon returning from a day of adventure, there is ample space available for storing those muddy boots and damp coats in case the weather is unfavourable. Head into the living area, a lovely spacious room full of character with exposed timbers, comfortable sofa and armchairs and an open fireplace, with TV and Wi-Fi included during your stay. Enjoy a meal around the dining table and cook up a feast in the fully fitted kitchen with oven/hob and microwave, with a washing machine to freshen up any muddy clothes to complete a simple, self-catered stay.
2 Town Head Cottages can sleep up to six across three well-presented first floor bedrooms: one king size bedroom and two additional twin rooms; there is a separate family bathroom.
Situated within walking distance of Grasmere Village, famously once the home of William and Dorothy Wordsworth, you will find a wide range of shops, pubs and cafes. There are some very good restaurants in the area, one of them within about ten minutes' walk, and a great family style pub just a few yards further.
Popular walks from here include following Red Bank Road and then the footpath along the west shore of the lake towards Rydal Water, or along quiet Greenburn just across the valley from the cottage. With no motorboats allowed, the lake at Grasmere is great for swimming, rowing and paddle boarding.
The Lakeland Fells provide some of the best high-level walks in England. You will find the highest mountain in England, Scafell Pike (978 meters), a few miles west in the heart of the mountains, and many other well-known fells like Skiddaw, Helvellyn and the Old Man of Coniston. For those wishing to minimise the use of their car during the stay there are day hikes from the front door (from easy to challenging) to easily fill a week's worth of walking.
