Location Delightfully positioned in the small village of Glenridding, close to Ullswater and at the very foot of Helvellyn, this lovely stone built cottage is ideally placed for immediate access to the Lakeland fells. To reach the property from Ambleside take the Kirkstone road from the mini roundabout at the northern end of town and continue up the hill to the T junction opposite the Kirkstone Pass Inn. Turn left, proceeding down the Kirkstone Pass passing both Brotherswater and Patterdale and on reaching Glenridding itself, on passing The Glenridding Hotel and after the entrance to the public car park, turn left into Greenside Road signposted for the Travellers Rest. This pretty stone built cottage is a short way along. The private car parking for the property is situated just beyond, at the far end of the terrace.
