Rowlandson Ground Cottage
Rowlandson Ground Cottage sits in Coniston and Grizedale, right in the heart of the Lake District, and sleeps four, making it a good choice for a small group keen to explore this part of Cumbria on foot.

The Ruskin Museum and Brantwood are both a short distance away, with Hawkshead Grammar School a little further for those interested in local history. Coniston Fudge and Our Plaice are handy for a sweet treat or a fish and chip supper after a day out. Windermere station is under six miles away if you're travelling by train, and Coniston Water at Monk Coniston is just 0.4 miles off, with good water quality for a dip or a lakeside stroll.
