Mungrisdale self catering cottages are an excellent choice for visitors who want to get away from it all. Despite a stunning location next to the outlying fells of the Skiddaw range, it is relatively quiet compared to some Lake District areas, offering peace and quiet alongside stunning scenery. Mungrisdale holiday cottages are set in the valley of Mungrisdale, on the Northern Eastern edge of the Lake District, with high fells to the west and the Eden Valley and North Pennines to the west. The Landscape is impressive, the mountains plunge steeply into the valley, with great walking to be had up and around Bowscale Fell and Bannerdale Crags. These walks take in paths that are visited much less than others in the Lakes, preserving a sense of tranquility.

Despite a feeling of peace and a slower pace of life, Mungrisdale self catering cottages are easy to reach from the M6 motorway, and have an ideal location for exploring Cumbria. As well as the village, with its pub, and the immediate area of Lakeland fells, visitors are ideally placed to visit the market town of Penrith, busy tourist town Keswick and the pretty village of Caldbeck with its pleasant cafes and gift shops. Further afield, the splendour of the Eden Valley and its perfect, picture-book countryside, the North Pennines and Hadrian's Wall are all reachable with ease on day trips. However, you may be as content to enjoy your Mungrisdale holiday cottage, taking a stroll along one of the footpaths that criss cross the valley and relaxing - after all, you are on holiday!

If our Mungrisdale self catering cottages are fully booked, or you want to look at other options in this gorgeous location, we have a number of self catering holiday cottages in the Lake District fringes. These include Yanwath self catering cottages, which benefit from proximity to both Ullswater and the amenities in Penrith, and Sockbridge holiday cottages nearby.
