Fell View - A stylish Cottage for 6. Spectacular views over Penrith, Dog friendly
Fell View has been through a complete renovation over the last year, resulting in a stylish space for up to 6 guests to enjoy their holiday. Whether it is lounging in the lovely terraced rear lawned garden, dining from the BBQ, or quiet reading area. The decked patio to the front is a great space to enjoy a glass of wine while watching the sunset over the lake district fells.
Perched on the hillside overlooking Penrith, this attractive holiday home benefits from spectacular views of the fells from almost every window. Inside, the owners have taken great care to decorate the house to a high standard, including rich wallpaper patterns, lovely colours, and comfortable furniture.
The ground floor, comprising the kitchen, living & dining area, and a WC, is light and bright thanks to the large windows. Upstairs are three lovely bedrooms, each with an international double socket with a charging point, a family bathroom, and a separate tiled shower room.
Conveniently situated less than a 10-minute walk from Penrith Town Centre, this holiday home has something for everyone; even your four-legged pet has an outdoor shower with warm running water! A short drive away is Ullswater, England's second largest lake, and Keswick on the shores of Derwent Water.
Closer to home for the kids and the dogs, at the back of the house, there's a large grass public park with separate children's play park up to age 12yrs, ideal for exercising the dog, playing cricket/football; access is through a gate from the rear garden. There is an abundance of maps that are available to borrow.

Ideal getaway place.
Fell view is a great base. The house is lovely, beds are amazing, towels are luxurious and everything you could ever need in the kitchen and utility room. Very dog friendly with dog bed and towels provided. The garden is a great size with different seating areas and all enclosed so we felt very relaxed on the decking with our dog able to enjoy wandering around safely. Two showers, 2 toilets and a bath so plenty of amenities for our group of 5 adults. Linda and Martin have really thought of everything, hand wash in each of the bathrooms and kitchen, a great welcome pack for teas and coffees and treats for our dog, games & books. We will definitely visit again.

Incredible view in a comfortable home
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Fell View. It sits high on a hillside and has an incredible view looking over the mountains to the south in the Lake District. You can sit on the front porch and just enjoy the vista! There is also a nice backyard which we didn't get to use. A friend in Manchester had suggested that we had done better if we had booked in Keswick or similar, but we ended up loving being in Penrith. It seemed more like a regular town and not swamped with tourists. There is a short walk into the center of Penrith and plenty of places for groceries in walking distance. There was great access to hikes in the Lake District, the Dales and a trip up to Hadrian's Wall. The home (it is a duplex, and we never heard a sound from next door) is very nicely decorated and has two floors. We loved sitting in the small living room. The bed we used was very comfortable, and we slept well. The kitchen had plenty of cooking gear. There is a washer and dryer, although the latter was out of order but hopefully will be sorted soon. They did have a line dryer (both for inside and in the yard), and we were lucky to have all sunny weather and so not a problem for us. The owners, Martin and Linda, live next door and are very kind. They are available for any questions and incredibly knowledgeable about the area. We appreciate staying in rentals that feel like a home, especially for an extended time like this one. We would very happily stay here again.

Relaxing stay at nice holiday house
We stayed for 5 nights in Fell View. The house is conveniently located for day trips into the Lake district, and a 15 minute walk from the city centre.
The interior of the house is lovingly decorated and very comfortable. we even enjoyed the garden as the weather was reasonable. Enjoyed our stay!
