Ground Floor
The main entrance to bend or Bump is at the rear of the cottage. Upon entering you find yourself in a bright and sunny newly-fitted kitchen, flooded with light from the roof windows and beautifully appointed with shaker style units and modern appliances. Here you'll find everything you need for a self-catering holiday including an electric hob and oven, dishwasher, washing machine, coffee maker, fridge and separate freezer.

Beyond the kitchen is the beamed yet spacious sitting and dining room, with comfortable seating arranged in front a log-burning stove above which sits a large, Smart TV - the perfect place for cosy evenings after busy days exploring. There's plenty of room for dining too with a dining table and chairs for 6 - an ideal place for energy-boosting breakfasts and hearty evening dinners in front or a roaring fire.

First Floor
A stone staircase leaded to the upstairs landing. It is here that the reason for name "Bend or Bump" becomes immediately apparent; a particularly low beam across the landing means a duck, or "bend" is necessary to avoid a knock or "bump" to the head.
Off this first floor landing you'll find the cottage's 2 delightful bedrooms.

Bedroom 1 features a king-size bed
Bedroom 2 is furnished with 2 single beds.

The modern and stylish family bathroom features a bath with shower over, W.C. and basin.

Outside
To the rear of the cottage is its patio garden complete with table and chairs and delightful views over open countryside to the Yewdale Fells. A wonderful corner of the Lake District all to yourself in which to enjoy a morning coffee or evening glass of wine.
