The Bothy

With Log Burning Stove
We are currently updating parts of the bothy. There is a new cooker, multifuel stove and slipper bath and further plans include the kitchen area, some windows and external decoration. Consequently the current images may not show these features yet.

Description
The Bothy is a self contained building standing on it's own offering cosy and comfortable "upside down" self catering accommodation for two people. It combines the old with the new and has a multifuel "log burning" stove to curl up in front of on those dark winter evenings.

Layout
Stone steps lead up to the front door where you enter into the combined lounge/dining/kitchen area with it's wooden floor and views towards Scafell Pike.

Steps lead down to the bedroom, which has stone walls and exposed oak beams. A door leads from the bedroom to the ensuite bathroom which has a traditional slipper bath on feet, hand basin and WC.

All rooms are furnished with care and thought.

Views
From the kitchen and garden there are views towards Scafell Pike, Bow Fell and Crinkle Craggs.

Garden
An enclosed garden area surrounds two sides of the Bothy which is south facing and sunniest just outside of the front door and there is use of a nearby field.

Pets
Pets welcome (but not allowed downstairs into the bedroom or on the furniture)
