Tethera Cottage offers a truly unique and captivating experience and provides the perfect place to get away from it all and relax within the beautiful Lake District. Recently converted from an animal shed, it now provides luxurious holiday accommodation for two guests and is ideal for those who enjoy walking with The "Cumbrian Way" passing within metres of the door.
Alternatively you may choose to be at one with nature and explore Lowick Common which provides twelve hundred acres of abundant wildlife, hidden tarns and panoramic views from the top of the Beacon. Here you are likely to see deer, hares, badgers, toads, herons and many birds of prey.
For those who enjoy fishing, the owners are able to offer FREE fishing (subject to holding the correct license which is available locally) where you can fish for Sea Trout and Salmon on the River Crake (half mile stretch).
Tethera Cottage provides a perfect rural retreat with modern and comfortable luxury throughout. It has many qualities of a contemporary hotel, whilst having the privacy, space and charm of a traditional Lakeland cottage, with 'contemporary cottage chic' styling throughout, proving a winning combination. It is ideal for those who are looking for a peaceful break away in the Lake District without the crowds, yet central enough to be able to enjoy all the attractions that the area has to offer.

From Trip Advisor:
A great homely cottage set in beautiful countryside. The interior was tastefully decorated and was of a high standard. Upon entering the property we were blown away with a welcome pack which included fresh baked bread and homemade cakes. Superb!!
I would definitely recommend this to a friend and would go and stay there again. The location was ideal for nearby Coniston and Ulverston. Keep up the good work Emma.
Beautiful surroundings ..... perfect location, secluded within easy reach of surrounding villages. Breathtaking views.......The cottage itself, is perfectly formed, modern and cosy with everything you would need for a romantic break.... even with a 9 month old baby. Welcome pack including a good bottle of wine and lots of other goodies....... yum yum. Log fire ready for lighting. Highly recommending to friends and family.
This cottage is beautiful, secluded and perfect for a romantic break. If it's peace and quiet you want and you dont mind using the car to go out to places for things such as food, then don't hesitate to book. There are walks from the cottage itself too and a really nice pub that you can hike to across a few fields which serves great pub grub. We didn't want for anything at the cottage, it was like a home from home.
