Boxtree Cottage, Dacre - a cottage that sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms
Step into a world of timeless elegance at Boxtree Cottage, a beautifully renovated 18th-century farmer's cottage in the heart of Dacre. Just a short stroll from Ullswater's shores, this stunning property seamlessly blends original charm with luxurious modern amenities, creating an unforgettable Lake District experience.
Nestled in the village center, with the welcoming Horse and Farrier inn just a short walk away, Boxtree Cottage puts you right in the heart of the action. Dacre is the perfect base for exploring the northern Lake District, with footpaths and cycle routes leading directly to Ullswater, where watersports and lake cruises await.
Enter the cosy sitting room, complete with a feature fireplace, a crackling log-burning stove, and exposed beams. Sink into plush sofas and armchairs, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring. The fabulous kitchen is a culinary dream, boasting shaker-style units, a natural stone floor, and all the modern appliances you could need (oven, hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, washing machine!). Prepare delicious meals in this bright and airy space, then gather around the farmhouse-style table in the dining room for a leisurely breakfast or a formal dinner. Relax in the sunroom with views over the colourful cottage garden.
Upstairs, the master bedroom boasts a vaulted ceiling, an original cast iron bed, and period furniture, complemented by a luxurious en-suite bathroom with a roll-top bath. The second bedroom offers a super king-size bed (convertible to twins) and a modern en-suite shower room, ensuring comfort for everyone. There's also a useful cloakroom, perfect for drying wet walking gear.
Boxtree is dog-friendly, welcoming up to two well-behaved pups!
All oil, electric, bed linen, and towels are provided. Parking for two cars is available, along with a lockable stone outhouse for storing bikes. A cot and highchair are available. The stunning south-west-facing garden is a safe and enclosed space, perfect for kids and pets to play.
