Waltons Close, County Durham

Waltons Close was created from two traditional farm cottages and adjacent barn to create a very spacious and characterful holiday home which is ideal for large families, special celebrations and groups of friends offering high quality accommodation, a convenient location in the pretty Lakeland village of Stainton, easy access to Ullswater and the central Lake District and walking distance of two country pubs. The large farmhouse style kitchen is equipped with electric hob and oven, dishwasher, washer/drier and American style fridge freezer, ensuring you are well-equipped throughout your stay. A breakfast table in the kitchen is ideal for the kids in the morning or a focal point where guests can keep the appointed chef company in the evening over a drink and a chat. An inner hallway links the kitchen to the dining room, leading off to the second patio with outdoor dining furniture. From this hallway the first of the four bedrooms is located, spacious dual aspect room can be presented with a choice of either a super king bed or twin beds and adjacent to the bedroom is an outside door that opens to the parking area, complemented by a shower room with shower cubicle, basin and WC. A staircase leads to the large first floor landing that overlooks the dining room and benefits from the dual height glazed barn door. Choose from three further bedrooms; to the front are two large bedrooms, both are dual aspect, one is presented with a king-size bed whilst the other offers a choice of super-king-size or twin bed and both offer ensuite shower rooms with shower cubicle, basin and WC. Outside the cottage there are two patios, one with outdoor dining furniture, to the front of the cottage there is a small lawned area, so there’s plenty of space to enjoy these idyllic grounds. The local town of Stainton is the perfect spot for a morning stroll, offering an array of independent shops, cafes and restaurants to explore. For a cultural day out, venture to Penrith and visit the town’s museum, art gallery and castle, or take the family to nearby Pooley Bridge, where you can spend the day on the banks of Ullswater. This idyllic lake is the second largest in the Lake District and home to a variety of activities, from canoeing and kayaking to easy walking trails. Waltons Close is the perfect base from which to explore these wonders of the Cumbrian countryside.
