The property

Wally's Folly is a delightful wooden lodge settled into the Limefitt Park and with access to all on-site amenities, including a shop and pub, and rests in the beautiful Troutbeck valley.

Offering pretty countryside views from the decking, as well as local walks and watersports, this is a fantastic location from which to explore the Lake District National Park and Cumbria.

Park off-road and be welcomed into a charming space with tasteful furniture and ample amenities.

Here there is a kitchen for cooking tasty meals, a dining space for four, and a sitting area benefiting from a TV and the ambient glow of electric flame effect fire.

When the sun is shining, throw open the double glass doors and head out onto the enclosed decking, enjoying the beautiful trees and rolling hills as you sip a coffee and plan the day ahead of you.

When sleep calls, freshen up in either the Jack-and-Jill shower room or separate bathroom, before settling down for the night into either a twin (zip/link, can be double on request) or king-size bedroom.

For eating out nearby, head over the valley to Troutbeck for a relaxed daytime stop at The Old Post Office Tea Room or The Mortal Man which boasts beautiful views from the beer garden, The Queens Head sits further up the road, ideal for an evening meal after a day on the fells.

It’s easy to see why the Lake District remains a favourite for family breaks, with a wide range of activities on offer for those seeking adventure.

Visitors can enjoy everything from guided hill walks and cycling to climbing, canoeing, archery, kayaking, and team-building experiences.

Windermere and the surrounding area provide a mix of tranquil gardens, shopping, cinemas, and a theatre, alongside popular family attractions such as Brockhole, The Lake District Visitor Centre, home to an adventure playground and café, and Fell Foot Park, where rowing boats can be hired and picnic spots enjoyed.

Nearby, Ambleside offers a selection of cafés, while Troutbeck is home to a local pub and access to Lake Windermere.

The area is also well placed for memorable walks, including routes around Scafell Pike, The Old Man of Coniston, and Helvellyn.

About the location

TROUTBECK

Windermere 3 miles; Ambleside 4 miles.

The small Lakeland village of Troutbeck can be found between its more famous neighbours Windermere and Ambleside, close by the Kirkstone Pass. A mixture of houses, cottages and farms, the village is scattered along a narrow lane bordered by a drystone wall. Many of these buildings date back to the 17th Century with features such as mullioned windows and heavy cylindrical chimneys and the northern end boasts its own 17th century inn. Close by, the bustling towns of Windermere and Ambleside are popular with visitors, providing a range of amenities to suit all tastes. Lake Windermere offers boat trips, including the lakeside ferry to the Lakeside Aquarium and Grizedale Forest Park. The ‘Windermere Steamboat Museum’ displays a fascinating collection of boats whilst children will enjoy the ‘World of Beatrix Potter’ in Bowness, where technology brings her characters to life. Within easy reach of destinations such as Coniston Water, Kendal, Keswick and the Lakeland Mountains, Troutbeck is ideally situated for exploring all that the region has to offer.
