High Rake is the perfect base for those looking to enjoy an all-action holiday, or equally to relax in the peace and quiet that such an area can offer. With the Ullswater stream running past on its journey from Red Tarn, surrounded with amazing views onto Sheffield Pike and Birkhouse Moor and with Helvellyn in the distance, there really isn’t a cottage like this. A traditional stone cottage nestled into the Fell side above Glenridding, standing in a short row of cottages, this comfortably furnished and cosy cottage enjoys spectacular views. The property sleeps four guests in two bedrooms and a family bathroom.
The cottage is located centrally in the Lake District National Park and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. There is superb walking from the doorstep, water sports are available in the village, and a cruise on the famous Ullswater steamer to Pooley Bridge or Aira Force is a must. A spectacular drive over nearby Kirkstone Pass drops down into Windermere and Ambleside making this an excellent central holiday location.
