About this property
Character Cottage with fabulous mountain views in the North Lakes District
Stay at Erika's Cottage in a great location in the Lake District National Park with fantastic views of Blencathra, and the Mungrisedale Fells and the Dodds and Helvellyn Range to the south. This characterful one-bedroom cottage sits next to a private woodland where you may catch sight of the resident red squirrels and enjoy watching the other wildlife such as pheasants, birds of prey, woodpecker and stoats.
The cosy living room has wifi, 4K Ultra HD Smart TV and Nest Thermostat so that you can control your cottage temperature.
Erika's Cottage sits in a fantastic position to explore the Lake District with Ullswater only 6 miles away with its lakeside villages of Pooley Bridge and Glenridding; Keswick and Derwentwater are only 12 minutes drive away, and there is easy access to the rest of the Lake District.
There are plenty of welcoming pubs in the area and the nearest the Troutbeck Inn is just 1 mile away in Troutbeck Village; there is also a great farm shop 3 miles away on the A66.
The cottage is for a maximum of 2 people and well-behaved dogs are very welcome (small pet fee).
Penrith is home to this cottage. The area's natural beauty can be seen at Ullswater and Lodore Falls. Rookin House Activity Centre and Keswick Leisure Pool & Fitness Centre are also worth visiting. Visit our Penrith travel guide

It was very clean, pet friendly. The scenery was beautiful. I would definitely recommend the cottage. My particular health needs were also taken into consideration.
We had a lovely 4 night stay, cottage is in a lovely spot, very quiet but within easy reach of places to visit etc. Has everything needed for a ‘home from home’ stay :-)
Great cottage fantastic view Great to chill out in also nice and clean bed comfy shower perfect would recommend to family and friends will return again thankyou for a great stay
Booked for a cosy retreat for my girlfriends 40th with the dog, lovely little cottage with everything you need, short drive to Keswick, Penrith and Ullswater, we'll hopefully stay again to explore more of the north lakes in the future.
We had a lovely stay and would definitely recommend.
Small but perfectly formed. Lovely location and space of stay will likely book again. Only gripe was the mattress was not particularly brilliant but otherwise the cottage was perfect for us. I’d recommend to couples or small families anytime.
Everything about the stay was excellent, from the location down to the quick and clear communication from the hosts. They were exceptionally accommodating and we will hopefully be back again one day.
Cosy cottage with a great fenced off garden for the dogs. Great views and great location. Everything you need is there and the farm shop up the road is great. Lovely pub just down the road too though they were closed when we planned to visit. Will definitely stay here again. Check in and out was very simple.

This property was superb as it was everything we wanted. It was exceptionally peaceful, ideally placed and surrounded with wildlife.
Thank you to our hosts who were easily contactable and who facilitated an early arrival. We would wholeheartedly recommend this excellent property.
A great little cottage clean with everything you need, the views are to die for.A great location for all the lakes and within easy reach of the local pub.many thanks.
Lovely well equipped little cottage with a perfect fenced in garden and amazing views!
Lots to do in local area with good amenities and friendly locals
We have just spent 3 nights here. Stunning location with beautiful views and good access to the lakes. Property cosy and warm. Very peaceful. Encolsed garden a bonus for the dog.
Property had all the facilities needed.
Ideal getaway for a couple seeking a peaceful break.
Beautiful cottage! Perfect stay for us two and our dog. Lovely fenced in garden which was great for the dog. Cottage was warm and well equipped. Lovely hot shower after long rainy walks.
Perfect location, hopefully be back! :)
Erika’s Cottage is cosy and well equipped but best of all it is set in a beautiful peaceful part of the Lake District.
The views are wonderful. Thank you.
Ideal cottage for 2. Very warm (we had a winter break) and cosy. Red squirrels in the copse next door and a fabulous view of Blencathra. Dog friendly with a fully enclosed garden. We will be back.
The cottage was spotlessly clean and tastefully decorated with modern kitchen & bathroom, a comfy sofa and bed and beautiful views. It is tucked away in a peaceful location but only a short drive from Derwent Water and Ullswater so there’s plenty to see and do nearby. The secure garden was perfect for our dog. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend this cottage to couples / singles who want a peaceful location.
We were looking for a quiet, country cottage with beautiful views and that’s exactly what we received. We were simply delighted. Everything’s exactly what it says on the tin. Thanks Peter!
