About this property

Passed down through four generations of the Heaton Cooper family, Croft is an attractive and traditional cottage, nestled within the centre of the quintessential village of Grasmere. Renovated to a high standard with sophisticated hues and stylish interiors, this gorgeous dwelling exudes both charm and luxury, together creating a warm and restful space to retire to following a fun-filled adventure in the Cumbrian countryside. Discover a beautiful white kitchen, boasting a sea of sleek electrical appliances and a commodious fridge/freezer, perfect for showing off your culinary skills as you prepare many meals throughout your stay. Tuck into your marvellous creations at the pretty oak dining table and crack open a refreshing bottle of bubbly, as you enjoy great conversations with your friends and family. Sink your toes into the plush carpets as you move your way to the living room and allow yourself to fall deep into the chic cream sofa, whilst flicking on the flat-screen TV and losing yourself in an entertaining movie with the help of the handy DVD Player. Admire the quirky wooden ski-set as you venture up the staircase to the first floor and be greeted by a fabulous king-size bedroom, featuring an abundance of storage, and a quaint en-suite shower room. The first floor also features an additional king-size and a lovely twin, each complete with wonderful country-style furnishings and served by a light and spacious family bathroom. Outside, guests can enjoy warm summer days with afternoons spent lounging on the lawn or indulging in a lovingly prepared lunch at the patio table. Experience the very best that the Lake District has to offer with trips to the National Trust owned Wray Castle and the breath-taking Rydal Cave. Embark on an exhilarating adventure in the Green Gable where you can enjoy awe-inspiring vistas and challenge yourself with a hike to the peak of Scafell Pike. Spot the cascading waterfall of Stock Ghyll Force, or take a scenic stroll through the open fields of Langdale Boulders. Step back in time at the 400-year-old Townend farm or spend the day at the Treetop Lake District, offering fun for the whole family. Meet the exotic residents of Lakeland Wildlife Oasis or the South Lakes Safari Zoo, both resting just a pleasant drive away, or head out onto the waters with a thrilling day at the Water Park Lakeland Adventure Centre. Escape reality with your loved ones on a memorable family holiday to the Lake District at Croft.

Situated in the heart of the Lake District National Park is the lovely village of Grasmere, probably best known as the home of William Wordsworth, a place he once described as "The most loveliest spot that man hath found". Any visit to Grasmere needs to include The Grasmere Gingerbread shop, where the Wilson family have been making gingerbread for over 60 years. Also in the village are a number of shops, pubs, a church which dates back to the 13th century and Grasmere Lake, plus Grasmere Sports takes place every August, where you can watch participants compete in a variety of sports, including Cumberland Wrestling. Just five miles away is the town of Ambleside and Lake Winderemere where you will find shops, pubs, restaurants and the 17th century Bridge House, which is one of the most photographed buildings in the Lake District. Cruises, boat trips and watersports can all be enjoyed on Lake Windermere and the towns of Windermere and Keswick are also within driving distance. Grasmere is a wonderful base for your Lake District retreat.
