The property

Ulverston 3.5 miles. A detached, stone-built beautifully-restored farmhouse, brimming with character, offering outstanding views to Coniston Water and the surrounding fells. The unique elevated position of this spacious holiday home, which sits on the edge of the Lake District National Park and on the Cumbrian Way, has been lovingly restored to provide extended family groups with excellent holiday accommodation. Groffa Crag Farmhouse provides parties with three recreational sitting rooms, two kitchens, large bedrooms, fantastic estuary views and period features including fireplaces and woodburners. The converted barn area with extra kitchen and separate lounge makes the accommodation ideal for a family gathering to enjoy this beautiful area of the country. The light-filled, high-spec kitchen includes an AGA and separate electric oven as well as corian-topped worktops. A large island comes with a breakfast eating area, and there are wide, dual-aspect picture windows to take in the glorious views of the fells, coast and lake over a morning drink, whilst deciding where to explore in the days ahead. The property sits on the edge of the Lake District National Park, which offers a myriad of walks and bike paths, with Grizedale Forest just ten miles away, where ultimate adventure awaits! Head to Coniston and take a cruise across the lake on the gondola, which sails past Brentwood, the former home of artist and critic John Ruskin, and where Swallows and Amazons were also filmed. Above the bustling village of Coniston, with its cafés, shops and family-friendly pubs, sits the beautiful fell, the Old Man of Coniston, waiting for your discovery. Also, you can easily explore Windermere, with its many water activities and the World of Beatrix Potter for younger members of your group. Head the other direction for the coast and visit Ullverston, a quaint festival town with its weekly market and music, food and beer festivals at various times throughout the year. Returning back to this excellent holiday home, enjoy the view from the terrace with an evening glass of wine, relax in of the one sitting rooms in front of a toasty woodburner, or set up a family tournament of table tennis in the downstairs games room in the cellar. Theres space for everyone in this wonderful holiday home, and whatever type of Lake District holiday you seek, this is the perfect year-round base.
