Cherry How is a two-bedroom, double-storey house situated in the gorgeous village of Patterdale at the southern end of Lake Ullswater.
The stone-fronted house dates back to the 1960s, and it has been fully refurbished throughout to provide a homely holiday house with plenty of space and stunning views!
All the rooms in the house, except the bathroom, have dual-aspect double-glazed windows, with views of the surrounding farmland and dramatic fells. The house is kept toasty-warm thanks to the modern electric radiators, coupled with the wood-burning stove in the living room.
Cherry How also offers a woodland garden to the rear of the house. A clearing provides spaces for outside garden furniture, and the Owners are continuously developing the space whilst taking care not to remove the natural aspect.
Accommodation Summary
