Stag Cottage
Cumbria, England
The sandstone cottage has been restored recently but retains its period features such as stone mullion windows and an inglenook fire place in the sitting room.
The garden has a sandstone patio and built-in barbecue. There is a connecting passage on the ground floor between Stag Cottage and Melmerby Hall, with lockable and sound proof doors to respect guest privacy.
The village of Melmerby is in the Eden Valley, lying between the Pennines and the Lake District, 12 miles from Ullswater and 9 miles from the historic market town of Penrith. There are a number of outstanding walks along the edge of the River Eden. One of England's largest Druidic stone circles - Long Meg and her Daughters - is also close by. Melmerby is the home of the Egon Ronay award-winning organic village bakery which also serves fantastic meals and take away coffee/snacks. In nearby Ousby, 2 miles away, is The Fox Inn which serves excellent food. We recommend "The Lamb Henry". The Shepherd's Inn in Melmerby also serves great food and drinks.
