The house was built in the 1600's, originally in the style of a typical old Lakeland farmhouse and remained virtually unchanged for over 200 years, having had the famous writer and poet Thomas De Quincey as a tenant for a short time.

![]() | Formal gardens of approximately two acres, with a stream running through, were laid, giving the house a peaceful secluded setting, yet only five minutes by car to Ambleside, or a leisurely fifteen minutes walk along the quiet picturesque Rothay Valley to all the amenities of the Lake District. |
| Guests are offered the choice of three spacious and luxurious en suite bedrooms; all come equipped with tea making facilities, Colour TV, hairdryer and clock radio. They all have comfortable seating, with either settees or armchairs and have views over the garden, to the untouched beauty of the Lakeland fells. One of the bathrooms contains a relaxing Spa Bath, in which you can ease away those aches and pains after a day of climbing on the hills. | ![]() |
