Brookside Cottage - 3 bedroom cottage, dog friendly, with lovely views
Brookside Cottage in Maulds Meaburn, is a wonderful 3-bedroom cottage that overlooks the village green, where you can collect conkers from the ancient Chestnut trees in Autumn or watch a Heron diving for fish in the lovely Lyvennet river, which winds lazily right through the village. Perhaps a horse and trap trundling past on a summer evening. Springtime is uniquely special; listen to the sheep and bounding lambs as they roam free range on the green.
If required, the self-catering holiday cottage benefits from a parking space to the front with additional unrestricted parking on the lane. To the rear is a spacious garden area surrounded by farmland. Inside, the property has been decorated to a high standard throughout to provide a comfortable stay.

We really enjoyed staying at this property. We went to a wedding up the road and used the house as a base for walking locally and in the Lake District. If you would like to eat at the butchers arms, we recommend making a booking for dinner- we missed out. The greyhound in shap was excellent though.
House was the perfect size for us. Beds comfy, shower amazing, lots of seating and relaxing spaces. We spent a fair bit of time each evening in the living room and kitchen (good size and well equipped) and it was great. The dog loved it too..
We did a few walks around Eden valley from the house, but you can also drive to Ullswater/Helvellyn in about 40 mins.
My only minor comment is that renters should bring absolutely everything they need for cooking and meals, including seasoning and oil etc. There are no local shops. We did have plenty of utensils, pans, cleaning products however.
We got a Sainsburys delivery too.
