2 Bedroom Cottage in Whicham

Fell View is a beautifully converted 17th-century farmhouse, lovingly restored keeping many original features, oak beams, Lakeland slate floors and exposed brick walls. The house is steeped in history being once owned by the cousin of William Wordsworth, who has been said to have visited the property and the adjoining Chapel.

This room is spacious and full of character and is is a perfect setting to relax and converse with your holiday companions.


The ground floor also has a walk-in shower and wet room, tiled throughout and finished to a high quality.


The upstairs room has the two king size beds with a sliding door separating the two rooms, perfect as a family room or using the door, the room can be split off into two separate bedrooms (you will still have to walk through one bedroom to get to the other), this open space also has the magnificent bathroom with standalone bath with views across the fells, perfect for a long relaxing soak at the end of the day.


Outside, there is a small enclosed garden/seating area where you can take in views of the Whicham Valley, Black Combe Fell and even the start of the Coniston Fells.
