Surrounded by lush countryside, this sought after area enjoys the best of both worlds, offering the countryside ideal at the foot of Lake Windermere, whilst still being conveniently located just ½ mile to the A592 leading to the heart of The Lakes. The current owners have lovingly brought the property back to life, so now the 400 year old, four bed cottage has been transformed into a stunning, characterful home that offers a mix of traditional interiors and modern comforts to include new windows throughout. Sitting within a large plot extending to over 1 acre, the property boasts a private setting, stunning, newly landscaped gardens, four separate driveways and a carport. The final string to the bow is the attached shippon and large barn, which at present is a great area for storage and a workshop however it could be converted into a holiday let or an extension of the house, subject to relevant planning consents. Situated close to the South Eastern shore of Lake Windermere, and within a short drive from the bustling town of Bowness on Windermere which has an excellent choice of shops, restaurants and everyday amenities; Windermere Marina, The Motorboat Racing Club, Royal Windermere Yacht Club, Fell Foot and the Golf club are also within easy reach. In the immediate area there are a choice of pubs and The Swan at Newby Bridge boasts not only a super dining but also a spa, gym and swimming pool. Sandfold Farm has all the Lake District National Park has to offer on its doorstep and the popular market towns of Kendal and Ulverston are also within a twenty minute drive; its proximity to the A590 also means that J36 of the M6 is around 15 minutes away and access to the West Coast Mainline at Oxenholme and Grange train station 5 miles away, is both easy and convenient for connectivity to Glasgow, London and Manchester. There are a number of primary schools within a short drive and most have transport services and for those looking for independent schools, Sedbergh and Windermere Schools both have pick ups nearby. 8391956-print-Pages.indd 4 15/07/2019 18:19:23 The property offers a choice of four entrances with ample parking available. The flagged patio to the rear looks out over the large lawn, landscaped with colourful plants and flowers for a lovely outlook on approach to the entrance. The entrance porch with slate pitched roof creates a pretty and practical entrance into this charming home, with a slate seat and space for storing muddy boots. There are alternative entrances into the property however this one leads directly into the heart of the home – the open plan kitchen and living area. This homely space has a welcoming feel from the outset and the attention to detail in ensuring the integrity of this unique home has been retained is also evident. Restored stone flagged floors run throughout the space and the traditional painted units of the kitchen are finished with Burlington slate worktops, including a large central island. A Rangemaster cooker is set within a tiled inglenook with exposed beam lintel tying in with the exposed beams on the ceiling and over the doors and windows. The living area is set around the multi fuel stove, creating a cosy atmosphere much enjoyed in the winter months. The kitchen is supported by the newly converted cold store which now serves as a sizeable pantry and prep kitchen, offering a further range of units with the original restored stone worktops, flagged floors and exposed wooden beams. Adjoining the kitchen is the former entrance hall, now utilised as a dining area with an external door leading out onto one of the drives to the front. There is access from here to the WC and into the cosy yet bright living room. French doors lead out into the cottage garden to the side of the property, creating a lovely outlook. However the most striking feature of the room is the large fireplace with an impressive sandstone surround and unique decorative tiled inset that houses the Stovax multi fuel stove. 8391956-print-Pages.indd 5 15/07/2019 18:19:23 8391956-print-Pages.indd 6 15/07/2019 18:19:23 8391956-print-Pages.indd 7 15/07/2019 18:19:23 8391956-print-Pages.indd 8 15/07/2019 18:19:24 8391956-print-Pages.indd 9 15/07/2019 18:19:24 8391956-print-Pages.indd 10 15/07/2019 18:19:24 Stairs from the open plan living space lead up to the fi rst fl oor landing, full of character with curved plasterwork to the walls and exposed ceiling beams.

    COLTON COMMUNITY PLAN 2015 Main photo: Rusland valley looking west towards the Coniston Fells. © Teresa Morris Map: Ordnance Survey. © Crown Copyright 2005 Colton Parish Community Plan 2015 Introduction Topics, Policies and Actions 1. The Local Economy 2. Landscape and the Natural Environment 3. Communities and Well-Being 4. Housing and Other Development 5. Roads, Traffic and Transport 6. Energy and Sustainability Annexes Annex A: Community Plan Working Group Members Annex B: Action Plan Annex C: Community Transport Schemes Map of Colton Parish (back page) 1 Introduction Purpose Community Plans set out the issues that local people value about their neighbourhoods, and their aspirations for the future. They tend to be based on civil parish areas (like Colton) or groups of parishes. It is essential that that such Plans properly reflect the values, opinions, needs and aspirations of the community, and that they should be community-led, facilitated by the Parish Council. Principal authorities (in Colton’s case: Cumbria County Council and South Lakeland District Council) and planning authorities (in Colton’s case: the Lake District National Park Authority), are increasingly using these Plans to guide local policy and inform planning decisions. The purpose of this Plan is to set out policies and action plans for the future of the Parish. To this end, invitations to join a Community Plan Working Group brought together people from all three wards of our large rural parish, including parish councillors and the parish clerk. Working group members and contributors are listed in Annex A. Background Colton Civil Parish is a sparsely populated rural area of about 20 square miles within the southern part of the Lake District National Park, spanning three valleys running north-south: Coniston Water and the Crake Valley to the west, Rusland in the centre and Windermere and the River Leven in the east.

  • A History of Allithwaite
    A History of Allithwaite. This short history pulls together pieces of research and information on the village of Allithwaite but will hopefully lead to more in depth research in the future. Allithwaite lies to the north of Morecambe Bay, south of the historic village of Cartmel and en route from Grange-over-Sands to Flookburgh. No river flows through the village but springs perculate through the limestone on which the village is built with a beck running out from the rock at the lowest point of the village and these water sources will have encouraged early settlements. The village is built on the lower slope of a hill called Templand. Earlier histories talk about the outlying areas such as Templand and Birkby, Applebury and Outerthwaite, Rosthwaite and Wraysholme but very little about the village itself and the growth of the village can be documented after the building of the church and school in 1865 and more dramatically in the 20th century. Early history Artefacts (stone blades) from Kirkhead cave on the southern outskirts of the village date to approximately 11000 to10000BC. The cave is one of the most northerly recorded Palaeolithic sites in the country (Lindale Low being the other site). Most recently, at the start of the 21st century, Bronze Age remains from between 1500-1000 BC have been found in the centre of the village. From this period into the Iron Age, archaeologists state there is a lack of settlement evidence in the area. Kirkhead may have played an important part in local history as it has been suggested by more than one historian that this was the place where the first chapel in the Cartmel area was built.
