Steeped in Jacobean history, this farmhouse cottage is one of the Lake District's many secrets. The little village of Boot in Eskdale will have you feeling like you're stepping into scenes of your favourite period drama, with quaint rows of stone houses, the local pub, and a post office. This film-worthy setting continues right to the front door of this two-storey cottage. Before you even enter, pick apples from the garden to bake into a delicious crumble in the recently renovated kitchen — how's that for quintessential country living? Immediately, you'll melt into the rustic comforts of the cottage’s cosy living room, complete with a roasting fireplace, flagstone floors, wooden beams, and a gorgeous cupboard that was a wedding present gifted to this home's residents back in 1703. With the nearest fells just metres away, don’t forget those walking boots, which you can store in the old dairy. If you're up for a challenge, you can climb England's highest peak — Scafell Pike — in three and a quarter hours. A firm family favourite, this Lakeland legend certainly makes an unforgettable first impression.
