Open fires
Enjoy a cosy getaway in one of our properties with an open fire. Relaxing in front of the fire is the perfect way to unwind after a day’s exploring. Imagine curling up by the fire with your favourite person - or favourite book! All the cottages listed below have a welcoming open fire just waiting for you.
You can book any of these properties for a holiday at any time of year, but of course autumn and winter are the ideal seasons to make the most of a roaring fire. In the warmer months a fireplace makes for a striking feature, particularly in some of our period or character properties. Indulge in an autumn retreat as the nights draw in. We love exploring Lancashire and Cumbria when the trees are golden brown and leaves carpet the floor. October onwards is ideal for walks with the family, or romantic strolls for two, and heading back to a warming fire in your cottage is just such a lovely way to end the day.
In winter the landscape changes dramatically from the purples, greens and oranges of previous seasons. The area is just as beautiful in these quieter months as it is in summer. This is the best time to visit our waterfalls as they really come alive at this time of year, but you will certainly need to pack your wellies and woolly jumpers! Booking a property with an open fire at this time of year will keep the chills at bay.
With the romantic scenery of hills and valleys, lakes and rivers, and maybe a spot of snow too, this is a great place to think about booking your Christmas and New Year holiday. Unwrap presents in front of the fire with the family, or bring in the new year in style with a bottle of bubbly by firelight.
