The cottage
Glenridding, Ullswater, Lake District
Crag Close is a traditional stone-built Lakeland home sitting in the heart of Glenridding, steps from the shores of Ullswater and the foot of Helvellyn. Welcoming, comfortable and full of character — the perfect base for a Lake District escape.
The large family kitchen/dining area has an Aga perfect for entertaining and dining. On the ground floor there's a cosy lounge with log burner and TV. There's also a second sitting room with a wood burner and views towards Ullswater.
The gardens are a real delight — with a raised seating area with views of Ullswater and Place Fell. Opposite the house, there is easy access to Jenkins Field, a public space with lakeside access — great for children and dogs. Once parked, you never need to think about your car again.
