Keepers Cottage is a beautiful traditional stone cottage in Grisedale Bridge, on the lake side of the A592, just a short stroll from the quaint villages of Glenridding and Patterdale.
This Ullswater self-catering cottage has been recently refurbished throughout to restore the original wooden floor and exposed wooden beams. This self-catering cottage is ideal for walkers wishing to explore Ullswater and the Lake District or couples looking for a romantic getaway sipping a glass of red in front of the roaring fire.
The self-catering cottage is perfect for walkers because many popular walks lead off from the doorstep, including Place Fell and the Helvellyn Range with Helvellyn and Birkhouse Moor. If walking isn't your cup of tea, then why not hire a small motorised pleasure boat from St Patricks Boat Landing, minutes walk away, or jump aboard one of the Ullswater Steamers, 10 minutes walk from the cottage, and sail up to Pooley Bridge, Aira Force or Howtown.
Fancy eating out? You will enjoy the local pubs, hotel bars, tea shops and cafes, all within walking distance. If you wish to go further afield, why not use the bus service, with a bus stop at the end of the lane. Ambleside, Windermere, Keswick and Penrith are all well within an hour's drive from the cottage.

First Floor
All the windows have been replaced with double glazing, storage heaters are located on both floors, and the fire burning makes the cottage wonderfully cosy and warm!
Outside
Keepers Cottage is located in Grisedale Bridge which falls on the border between Glenridding and Patterdale - just 10-minute walk to pubs and shops in either direction. Ullswater Lake is a 10-minute walk where you can hop onboard one of the Ullswater Steamers to Howtown or Pooley Bridge at the North end of the Lake.
If you don't fancy driving, you can use the bus network, which will link you to Keswick and Penrith in one-directions and to Ambleside & Windermere in the other direction.
