Nestled in the pretty Langdale hamlet of Chapel Stile, this 19th Century chic Lakeland retreat takes a picture-postcard setting overlooking the Langdale Valley. This sleepy village is an ideal base with its handy shop and excellent country pub yet an abundance of walks and mountain bike routes from its doorstep.
Step inside Fountain Cottage and you'll fall in love with the traditional character and instantly soak up the contemporary luxuries of a meticulous restoration contrasting the old oak beams, thick walls and stone floors with crisp modern decor.
Contemporary comforts spread over the three floors; sumptuous cottage bedrooms, sleek designer bathrooms and a top floor lounge with a wood burning stove and a furnished, south-facing balcony for lazy summer brunches or just a cool place to chill out after those hard days on the fells.
Lakeland slate on the outside and lovely mountain and village scenes through almost every window. Active families will have no need to use their car, couples will relish the romantic location and cosy evenings by the wood burning stove and all will be glad of the short walk to the Good Pub Guide listed Wainwrights Inn.
Although this luxurious Lake District cottage is an outdoor lovers paradise, for those who want to just relax and be pampered the Cottage benefits from membership at the nearby Langdale Leisure Club. The Club offers a well equipped gym, swimming pool and sauna.
If you want big imposing summits to conquer there is no shortage to be found at the head of the Valley, all with names that conjure up the spirit of Wainwright and the Lake District. The Langdale Pikes, Pavey Ark, Crinkle Crags and Bowfell are all close by. For those who prefer a more relaxing ramble rather than serious mountains the Valley will not disappoint as it boasts a wealth of lower level routes where you will find unmatched panoramas to charm you at every turn.
If Mountain Biking is your thing then the area offers a huge range of interconnected bridleways to explore and if this isn’t enough only a short drive away (or if you are really energetic a 10km ride) is Grizedale Forest with its network of bridleways, forest roads and, the “piece de resistance”, the infamous North Face Trail.
Come rain or shine whether you are looking for outdoor activity or a peaceful romantic retreat Fountain Cottage offers it all.
