Is there a better location for a Lakeland cottage? We doubt it. Cherry Garth is set in a little piece of heaven. At the end of a private lane, surrounded by panoramic views of the mountains and fells and with Brotherswater below, this property is completely and utterly glorious. Hartsop Dodd, High Hartsop, Hart Crag, Fairfield and St. Sunday Cragg, the landscape is as old as time and yours to enjoy from first light to sunset.
Hartsop, the setting for Cherry Garth, is an unspoilt hamlet in the Ullswater valley. 17th century buildings and houses make up what is now a small farming community. There are traces of former industries such as milling, mining and spinning, which explains why many of the properties are Grade 2 listed and the village is protected by the National Trust.
The cottage itself has been stunningly updated. The interior has been decorated in neutral tones, the furniture is modern and stylish, with stone and wooden floors in the living areas, and wall to wall carpets in the bedrooms. Entry to the property is through the boot/drying room, leading to the welcoming sitting room with open fire, comfortable seating and magnificent view.
The large kitchen/dining room, dressed with granite and slate, is a wonderful space for family meals, planning walks and chatting over coffee. More relaxed seating, an additional TV/DVD and radio docking station gives yet another option when deciding where to relax. The utility room is separated from the kitchen and leads into the garden.
The first of the king size bedrooms is on the ground floor, complete with a wet room with monsoon shower. Upstairs are two further rooms with king size beds, sharing a house bathroom with slipper bath. Outside the property is plenty of parking as well as terrace and garden, lots of choice when it comes to deciding which view to admire.
Cherry Garth is simply stunning, and with such great views to enjoy, why even bother to leave the grounds?

Ullswater is generally considered to encompass three major villages. This includes Glenridding at the south and Pooley Bridge at the north. The second largest lake, at approximately 7.5 miles wide, Ullswater is often regarded as the most beautiful lake in the district. There is dramatic mountain scenery to the south, as well as the gentle hills of the north.
This region is popular among walkers, climbers and cyclists of all levels of ability. There are various water sports for all abilities too and lots of family activities. Along with historical sites of interest, Ullswater has a strong nautical history, having been a popular sailing destination for centuries.
There are marinas placed all around the lake. Plus a wide range of superb eateries and shops, sure to delight! Also, on the west side of the lake is the beautiful Aira Force Waterfall. It is one of the National Park’s most popular natural tourist attractions. Glenridding is a particularly popular tourist attraction with mountain walkers.
They visit the village to scale England’s third highest peak, Helvellyn.
