Ale Cottage is a pet friendly holiday cottage in Ireby. A cosy traditional cottage that comfortably sleeps four people in two bedrooms, with the one double en-suite and one twin that shares the family bathroom with a shower over bath, basin and WC.  The property also has a kitchen/diner completely equipped for your culinary needs whilst on holiday and a cosy lounge with a solid fuel stove. To the outside there is a private garden that is enclosed and off street parking. Ale Cottage is a lovely cottage in a fabulous part of the Lake District.

Situated just to the north of Skiddaw, Ireby is an excellent centre for touring and walking throughout the northern Lakes yet is relatively unspoilt and provides a haven from the hustle and bustle of the busier parts of the Lake District. Ambleside and Windermere are however within easy reach. There are numerous walking opportunities from the door over the Caldbeck Fells and Skiddaw which leads you into Keswick (12 miles by road) where many amenities including Derwent Water, restaurants, pubs and shops await you.
