Broad Ing Cottage
About the home
Broad Ing Cottage is part of a barn conversion of five properties in a courtyard setting on the fringe of the village of Tirril, which nestles on the edge of the Lake District National Park.
The cottage is deceptively spacious and is equipped to a very high standard. All the rooms are on one level and overlook the pleasant rear garden and open fields. Being private and peaceful it is a perfect location for relaxing and therefore appeals to both couples and families alike.
Ullswater Lake with its spectacular views is two miles from the cottage, making it ideally situated for walking and sailing. The market town of Penrith is three miles away and the village of Pooley Bridge is just two miles.
