About the host
Hosted by Liz Chapman
I have enjoyed walking in the Lakeland fells since I was a child and the beauty of the Lake District never ceases to take my breath away.
Why they chose this property
Motherby is a quiet village with stunning views of the Ullswater fells to the south and the popular Blencathra fell to the north west. Relax in the garden or cuddle up in front of the fire - whatever the season, it’s the perfect getaway for a relaxing stay.
What makes this property unique
Harbour House is a traditional cottage with a unique rustic charm. With stunning views out over the local farmland and distant fells, it provides comfortable and spacious accommodation with a cosy wood burning fireplace and sunny garden room for dining with a view.
