As the name suggests, Grasmere View Cottage is all about the spectacular, breathtaking view across Grasmere Lake which is sheltered by the surrounding mountains. Each day promises a changing vista as the sun sparkles off the waters surface and stormy skies conjures up a dramatic landscape in front of you. The cottage is in an elevated location above the lake and is part of the owner’s holiday home, all on the ground floor and provides spacious accommodation for 2. Guests can picnic in the garden with views across the lake or head up into the fells right from the door and enjoy a different vista from the fell summits. The village of Grasmere is a 10 minute walk with shops, bars, restaurants and tea rooms.
