This charming cottage is situated in the hamlet Broughton Mills, 2 miles from the market town of Broughton-In-Furness. Set on a working farm with stunning views of the Lickle Valley, Rose Cottage is a true home away from home, bringing you comfort and relaxation all-year-round.
Inside you will discover a characterful lounge with a woodburning stove, tucked away into a stone fireplace, and cream-coloured sofas which complement the traditional feel. The kitchen/diner has a country cottage feel and makes a cosy place to join your loved ones, morning or night time, to discuss those up and coming adventures over a home-cooked meal.
Three bedrooms are decorated to a standard of quality, with well-coordinated furnishings and tiny traditional windows, so you can snuggle up in style after an adventure-filled day. There is also a family bathroom complete with classic features, and a shower which is located over the bath, so all guests can get ready at ease.
Make the most of the small patio garden to the front and the use of a large grassy shared raised garden behind the house, a nice spot to rest on the furniture or gather for a barbecue with your loved ones. Rose Cottage is within walking distance to local Blacksmith Arms pub, which serves lovely food, and only 2 miles from Broughton-In-Furness which has an array of shops, restaurants and a bakery.
The local area offers plenty of pleasant walks and opportunities to see local birds and wildlife. A getaway not to be missed.
This is an amazing Cumbria attraction well known locally as well as nationally for how close you can get to the animals. Described as the most interactive animal park in Europe it's well worth a visit if you are staying in the area. Open from April to end October some of the highlights are the tigers, penguins, bears, hippos and rhinos. At 2pm during certain seasons it's feeding time so don't forget to plan your day around this so you can watch the animals enjoying their feed. Look out for seasonal events such as Halloween Zoo Boo (free entry for kids in fancy dress) and The Magic of Christmas.
