About

Once a 17th century traditional working farm, our lovely family run guesthouse Situated and surrounded by wonderful views of the Langdales, Loughrigg and Furness Fells, provides a peaceful and tranquil setting for your stay in the heart of the Lake District. Come and relax, enjoy good food, a warm welcome and experience a slower, peaceful pace of life in this beautiful setting.

There is a choice of five individually designed bedrooms within the farmhouse, each with en-suite shower, luxury toiletries, flatscreen TV, plus tea and coffee making facilities. There are 4 double rooms and a twin that can be made into a King. The rooms at the back of the house have views over the fells and the garden, those at the front have views out onto the Cumbria way. Wifi is available throughout the farmhouse. Breakfast is served in our bright and spacious breakfast room with windows that let in the morning sunshine, the ideal place to watch the birds on the bird feeders. See the chickens in the yard and enjoy their eggs at breakfast, There are plenty of facilities available at Elterwater Park in order to ensure you have an enjoyable and comfortable stay. These include our guest lounge with lovely views of the garden and a wood burning stove to keep you warm on cooler days. On warmer days you can sit in our beautiful garden, enjoy the views of the surrounding fells and watch the birds on the feeders. We have an honesty bar and a tea room (open seasonally) serving homemade cakes and light refreshments. Ample free off-road parking in 119 acres of private parkland on the Cumbrian way.
