For those who love mountains, Pelton Wheel Mountain Cottage offers you the chance to explore the fascination of the fells or to simply relax, unwind, enjoy the clear mountain air and watch the quietly grazing Herdwick sheep, beneath a stunning panorama of mountain peaks.
Pelton Wheel is a delightfully rustic mountain cottage offering easy access onto the surrounding Furness Fells. This cosy 2 bedroomed cottage enjoys open views towards the Old Man of Coniston. Invigorating walks are available from the front door and there's a welcoming hot tub nearby too should you need to rest those aching muscles after a day on the fells.
Alongside the cottage is the magnificent, restored waterwheel. Providing an epic backdrop for photography, this spectacular waterwheel looks all the more majestic in this dramatic mountain setting.
