Woodlands Cottage is a charming self catering holiday cottage, far from the crowds, hustle and bustle of central Lakeland.

The cottage is situated in the grounds of Woodlands Country House, a lovely Victorian house, now an attractive B&B accommodation set in a glorious rural setting and perfectly placed to ensure a wonderful holiday in the Lake District.

Put your feet up in the comfortable lounge in front of the wood burning stove and enjoy a cup of tea or a glass of local ale. This little cottage is five minutes from the village pub - the Black Lion, four miles from Bassenthwaite Lake, 12 miles from Keswick and a million miles from noise, stress and pollution!

The cottage has two bedrooms and sleeps up to three people. It was originally the stables for the Victorian vicarage and retains a lot of its original character. The large comfortable lounge/dining room has a high pitched roof and beautiful views towards Boltongate.

Opening dates: Woodlands is open all year including Christmas & New Year

Ireby is a traditional farming village nestling amongst the hills on the northern edge of the Lake District National Park. Step back in time and enjoy a totally unspoilt area of Cumbria where the rush hour traffic consists of the cows on their way to be milked or a flock of sheep being driven along the lanes..
