The Cottage adjoins Woodend House and offers comfortable self catering accommodation for up to five people. This makes it suitable for two couples or a family of four or five. It combines the old with the new and has a wonderful traditional victorian open range to curl up in front of on those dark winter evenings.
Through the front door you enter into the lounge/dining room with it's slate flagged floor, exposed beams, open range, views towards Scafell Pike and a door that leads to a traditional lakeland cottage kitchen.
Stairs lead from the lounge to a landing, off which there are the two bedrooms, one double and one twin (the twin has a double and a single bed) and the bathroom. Most rooms have views towards Scafell Pike, they all have exposed beams and all are furnished with care and and thought.
The sunniest garden is to the front of the property outside the front door but there is a garden area to the north of the property where there are panoramic views across Birker Fell towards Scafell Pike.
The cottage can be booked with the house (accommodating up to 12 people) and with the house and bothy (accommodating up to 14 people).

Woodend is set in a quiet remote location quite high on Birker Fell (approximately 950') and approached from the fell along a single track road through a gate. It has views across the fell towards Scafell Pike, (Englands's highest mountain), and is a ten minute walk from one of the smaller of the lakes, Devoke Water, which never the less is nearly a mile long!
At Woodend you not only have incredible views towards Scafell Pike from most of the rooms, but within a five minute walk you have stunning views over Devoke Water and within twenty minutes walking you can be at the top of Devoke Seat where, on a clear day, you have a 360 degree panoramic view that includes Devoke Water, the Langdales, the coast and the Isle of Man.
We pride ourselves in combining comfortable and cosy accommodation within a quiet relaxing environment.
Whether you enjoy walking, fishing, cycling, climbing, sightseeing by car or just want to close the gate after you and not return to civilisation until it suits you, this is the perfect centre for all.
