A lovely, semi-detached cottage, attached to the owners' 17th century Lakeland farmhouse, in Rusland, six miles from Hawkshead, with one double bedroom sleeping two people.

On the ground floor, the cottage has one bedroom with a king-size double bed, and a bathroom. There is an open plan living area up on the first floor, with a kitchen, a dining area and a sitting are with a woodburning stove. The courtyard outside is enclosed with furniture and pretty flowers and plants, and there is off road parking for two cars. With lots of walking and cycling opportunities nearby, The Shippen is a wonderful, romantic base for couples exploring the Lake District National Park.
