This area is one of the Lake District’s most idyllic, and Ullswater itself considered to be the jewel in its crown. Old Cop Shop Cottage is, as one might expect, converted from the old police station. Private parking for 2 cars just outside the door is real bonus, especially if travelling with young children and a pet. The cottage’s cosy sitting room has wooden floors and the most comfortable seating around a fireplace with woodburning stove. Bliss. The kitchen/dining room, with its lovely views over the front garden and fells, is a pretty space with everything needed to conjure up family breakfasts and delicious feasts, and the dining table is a wonderful spot to sit and chat. A rear door leads out to the patio with garden furniture and store. Upstairs offer views of Ullswater, with a king size room and a twin sharing the generous bathroom with shower over the bath, basin and wc. Just 10 minutes from the cottage is the village of Glenridding, with Patterdale being 10 minutes in the opposite direction. With a pub and shops close by, Old Cop Shop Cottage is perfect for those wishing to relax and enjoy the beauty of the Ullswater valley with its pretty villages and walks.
