Wild Duck
Wild Duck is up here in Swarthmoor. It's an end-terrace cottage. Quiet village, off the main road.
It sleeps four. Two double bedrooms, one bathroom. It's got a 4 Star rating. It's clean and well looked after, not overly posh.
The living room is open plan. There's a big sofa and a wood burning stove for colder nights. The kitchen has what you need. Good for breakfast, but you're also close enough to Ulverston to eat out if you want.
One thing to note: the bedrooms are on the first and second floor. The bathroom is on the first floor with the main bedroom, so if you're in the top bedroom you come down a flight for it.
The garden out the back is enclosed. Patio area. Gets the evening sun.
For kids, we've left a cot, a highchair, a stairgate and a toddler bed. Saves you bringing it.
Swarthmoor itself is quiet. There's a pub about half a mile away that does food. The bigger town is Ulverston, two miles down the road. That's got all the shops, pubs, and a market. It's where Stan Laurel was born, so there's a Laurel and Hardy museum if that's your thing.
You can walk from here. The Cumbria Way starts in Ulverston. Birkrigg Common is nearby for a shorter walk with good views over Morecambe Bay.
By car, you're about twenty minutes from the Lake District proper. Coniston and Windermere are within half an hour. The South Lakes Safari Zoo is about twenty minutes away too. The coast at Bardsea is about three miles.
In terms of what's here: parking, WiFi, washing machine, dishwasher, bedding and towels are included. We take up to two dogs.
Some links if you're planning: Lake District National Park and English Heritage - Furness Abbey. The abbey is about a fifteen minute drive.
