About this property
Cottage With Views Of Esthwaite Water, an Osprey Nest and Close To Hawkshead
A luxury 1 bedroom cottage, regularly upgraded, in the grounds of Rough Close House, separated from the main house by a court yard. All the rooms are seperate, there is a lot of space for two. Accommodation is for 2 adults only. There is ample, easy off road parking.
Visitors may also spot the ospreys which nest on Esthwaite Water. Their nest can be seen from the Coppice lounge normally. The ospreys usually arrive late March or early April and leave at the end of August. They have had chicks each year recently and there are now four nesting pairs in the area.
The property is ideally placed for wide range of activities including walking, mountain biking, fishing, or sight-seeing. Whichever you choose we hope you will enjoy your stay at the Coppice.

About the host
Hosted by Gill & Geoff Barton
Gill and Geoff Barton are the owners of Rough Close House and Coppice.
Having retired, we are still excited to be able to live in the heart of the Lake District in a beautiful location. We have worked in the area for over 30 years and have a background in sport and outdoor pursuits, so we know how to enjoy it and where to go, even pubs and coffee shops!

Why they chose this property
Knowing the Lake District very well we looked over the whole of the area before choosing Rough Close because of it's fantastic setting between Grizedale forest and Esthwaite Water. It is a beautiful location in any weather and at any time of year.
