The Bungalows is situated on the lower slopes of the Blencathra mountain range and offers unobstructed views over the quiet village of Threlkeld towards St. Johns in the Vale and the northern end of the Helvellyn range. The view to the west looks towards the fells around Derwentwater and Keswick and beyond. The Bungalows offers self catering bungalows and room only en-suite accommodation. All the en-suite bedrooms have their own private entrance and views over the garden towards St. Johns in the Vale and the Helvellyn mountain range. All rooms have a microwave, fridge, plus tea and coffee facilities. Room 1 is our brand new (2019) renovated contemporary room. Threlkeld village has two inns [both serving food], a golf course. Pony trekking and fishing are nearby. It is an ideal centre for walking, touring or just relaxing and enjoying the scenery. Though we are situated in the Northern English Lakes District, we are only 14 miles from J40 M6 and within easy reach of all the lakes and tourist areas like Windermere, Ullswater and Keswick.
We are a family run business from our 15 year old daughter to 70+ year old Nana Val. Our family has a very long history in the village in fact we have moved a 100 yards in four generations!! and the house is built on the old vegetable garden and chicken run (very spoilt chickens). Paul and Val started to build the Bungalows in the 1970's and opened their doors to guests in 1977. Val still lives in the bungalow at the end and will be on hand to help in any way we can during your stay, just pop round and ask, you may even get a story or two.
Guests looking for a walking holiday can quite literally step out their front door and onto the lower slopes of Blencathra, taking them on to a number of walks including Sharps Edge, Skiddaw House and Lowscales (the later two can also be ridden on mountain bikes). Threlkeld is a peaceful, traditional lakeland village which has two village inns both of which serve local ales and bar meals, a coffee shop, Post Office.The village is ideally situated for Keswick and Derwentwater, the Central Lake District. Offering numerous attractions including Beatrix Potter, William Wordsworth, Go Ape, spectacular mountain scenery, lakeland villages and lakes. Alternatively head west to Cockermouth the birth place of William Wordsworth and Jennings Brewery.
