Ideally situated between Keswick, Carlisle and Penrith in an unspoilt tranquil location, semi-detached Primrose Cottage was refurbished to a very good standard in 2023 and is perfect for couples. Situated in the village of Shap, known locally as the ‘Gateway to the Fells and Lakes’, being on the eastern edge of the Lake District National Park and close to the second largest lake in the Lake District - Ullswater. The village offers a wide range of amenities including a good selection of pubs, shops, a public outdoor heated swimming pool, a children’s play area and tennis courts.
The Eden Valley provides superb walking and cycling, and the Lakes and the Yorkshire Dales are easy to visit too.
