Comfortable Ensuite Room with King Size Bed

A spacious comfortable room with a king sized bed in a traditional Lakeland Cottage in the village of Clifton, just a few minutes from the M6 & A66, but perfectly placed to explore the Northern Lake District & Pennines). We are 10 minutes drive from Ullswater & numerous classic walking & trail running routes. Cycle routes 7 (C2C) and classic climbs such as Hartside, & Kirkstone are within easy reach & we are ideally located for John O Groats to Lands End & The Eden Valley cycle routes. 

Helvellyn Cottage is stone built 4 bedroom Lakeland cottage in the village of Clifton near Penrith. Central heating, double glazing and a recent refurbishment provide a private, pleasant and comfortable place to stay. Our home has (distant) views of the Lake District fells and the Pennines (weather permitting!).

You will have access to the entrance hall, landing and your bedroom. Your room will be upstairs, and we live downstairs and you do not have to go through our part of the house to get in and out, so you can come and go as you please and have your own privacy.  

Clifton is a small village in Cumbria, England (historically part of Westmorland) about 2 miles south Penrith. The village of has a church, primary school, and a pub; the renowned George and Dragon (you can view their food and drink options online and book if you want to eat there), which is part of the Lowther Estates. The nearest other pubs are The Beehive and The Crown at Eamont Bridge one mile away. There is free on road parking. 

The bus only runs 2 days a week, so a car, or at least a bike are recommended to get around! 

We do not provide breakfast, but we do provide cutlery and crockery if you want to bring your own (the mini fridge is 10 litres), or can recommend several local options. If you need secure bike storage, please contact us in advance. We can help with drying wet walking, running or cycling kit if needed. 

We have dogs (Margo the fearless Patterdale Terrier and Larry the inexhaustible Lakeland Terrier), but they are never in the parts of the house used by guests.
