School Cottage

Troutbeck Bridge, Cumbria

4

Troutbeck Bridge, located in the picturesque region of Cumbria in the North of England, is home to a delightful two-bedroom cottage that can accommodate up to four guests. This charming Lakeland stone-built property boasts an elevated position, offering stunning westerly views of Coniston Old Man and the Langdale Pikes. The cottage is part of a group of four attractive accommodations that were once a late Victorian school, chapel, and headmaster’s house. Guests can enjoy the tranquility of the surroundings while being just a short walk away from a well-stocked shop and a local pub, perfect for leisurely evenings.

The area surrounding the cottage is rich in outdoor activities and natural beauty. A mere mile away, or a quick bus ride, leads to Brockhole, the National Park’s Visitor Centre, where visitors can partake in thrilling tree-top adventures, zip-lining, or simply relax with a drink on the terrace. The location also provides easy access to scenic cruises across Lake Windermere or trips to the charming town of Ambleside. For those who love walking, numerous stunning trails begin right at the doorstep, allowing guests to immerse themselves in the breathtaking landscapes of the Lake District.

Upon entering the cottage, guests are greeted by a tastefully decorated sitting room that features a dining area, highlighted by two floor-to-ceiling west-facing windows and French doors that flood the space with natural light. The room’s focal point is the original stone fireplace, complemented by a cozy log-burning stove, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The modern fitted kitchen is perfect for preparing meals, which can be enjoyed in the pretty patio garden, offering a lovely spot to relax while planning the next day’s exploration.

Upstairs, the cottage features two charming bedrooms characterized by beamed ceilings and appealing rooflines. The front double room boasts a deeply set feature window with breathtaking views and includes an en-suite WC and basin for added convenience. The rear bedroom is a comfortable twin, making it ideal for families or friends traveling together. The family bathroom is well-appointed with a bath and a separate walk-in corner shower, ensuring a comfortable stay for all guests. This cottage combines comfort and charm, making it a perfect retreat in the heart of the Lake District.
