St Francis Cottage

Enjoy a cozy cottage in the picturesque Duddon Valley. The charming, traditional St Francis Cottage offers a peaceful escape in a beautiful rural setting. While it retains the simplicity and character of a classic Lake District home, it is full of warmth and charm, making it the perfect retreat for those looking to unwind and appreciate the stunning beauty of the Lake District.



Inside, you're greeted with an inviting, open-plan living space, featuring a fireplace with a wood stove – the perfect spot to relax after a day of exploration. The kitchen is equipped with an electric stove, microwave, refrigerator, freezer, dishwasher, and washing machine, providing all the essentials for a self-catering stay.



The sunroom with French doors opens onto the private garden, and the enclosed garden with outdoor furniture is a lovely place to unwind. Find yourself surrounded by scenic walks and peaceful drives right from your doorstep, a footpath runs alongside the house, leading to Stickle Pyke. Plus, the nearby River Duddon is ideal for relaxing picnics and private salmon and trout fishing.



Upstairs, you'll find a comfortable double bedroom with a 4.5-foot bed and a cozy single bedroom with a 3-foot bed. The bathroom includes a bathtub with a shower and a toilet.



The cottage is equipped with Wi-Fi, and initial logs for the wood stove are provided. There is also private parking available, and up to two dogs are welcome to join your stay!



If you're eager to explore further, you're close to attractions such as Muncaster Castle, the Ravenglass and Eskdale Steam Railway, Coniston Water, and Hardknott Fort. With a store just 1 mile away and a country bar 2 miles away, this delightful cottage provides the perfect balance of rustic charm and convenience in a tranquil location.

  • About the fort:

Barracks normally occupied the remainder of the fort; at Hardknott, however, no traces of these remain, although the front of the fort possibly contained barracks of stone and timber. At the rear, building would have been extremely difficult owing to the uneven ground, and the soldiers may have been housed in leather tents, remnants of which have been recovered in excavations. The parade-ground, where the garrison exercised and practised drill manoeuvres, lies on a plateau about 218 yards (200 metres) to the east.

We absolutely loved this place- St Francis Cottage is lovely and set in the most amazing quiet and peaceful countryside, stunning views from the conservatory and garden. Great to listen to the birds singing, and of course the woodpecker! Lots to do within easy reach of the cottage. Very comfy beds and lots of wardrobe space. Would highly recommend 😎
