Originally part of Greystoke Castle Estate and situated on an ex-farm, Pippa’s Cottage has been converted, whilst retaining many beautiful and original features. Pippa’s Cottage nestles in amongst a series of old farm buildings in 1.5 acres of grounds which the owner’s free-range chickens love to wander. The view from your private garden is straight across to Blencathra and Great and Little Mell Fells. There are delightful local village walks, and cyclists will enjoy winding through the attractive villages and wildflower-laden country lanes.

Ullswater, known as the most romantic lake, and the Keswick area with its spectacular high fells, are both within an easy 20-minute drive. This location is ideal for both outdoor enthusiasts and for those wishing to unwind in a beautiful, relaxing and peaceful setting. The local village has a fantastic country pub dating from the 17th century and a local village store and boasts the magnificent Greystone Castle, the ancestral home of Tarzan which is now open to the public. In summer there is also a heated outdoor swimming pool with a café located within the village.



No children or babies allowed.

There are steps or steep slopes in the garden.

Pippas cottage was a lovely place to stay, the couple who owned it were always on hand if needed.

Pippas cottage was a lovely place to stay, the couple who owned it were always on hand if needed. The cottage was very clean and the bed was very comfortable. You are close to the lake district and other places of interest. and a lovely area for walking. I would highly recommend Pippas cottage, perfect for a rest and will hopefully return.

We had a fabulous 3 day stay at Pippas recently and can honestly say it's one of the best accommodations I have ever stayed in. Everything was thought about thoroughly, from the extremely comfortable bed, excellent quality bed linen, high end furniture, to the very large hamper that awaited us on arrival. The place itself was spotless and everything we needed was there. The fire was a fabulous touch and the location itself was very quiet and private. Lisa was on hand and was very welcoming. I would highly recommend staying here and can't wait to stay again! Thanks for a fantastic holiday
