The property
Set in Chapel Stile - one of the most picturesque villages in the Lake District National Park and the gateway to the Langdale valley, Mellbreak is superbly located, surrounded by fells such as Pike o'Blisco, Crinkle Crags, Bowfell and the craggy peaks of the Langdale Pikes rising at the head of the valley.
Just a short 5 minute walk away is Chapel Stile village, home to the well-known Wainwrights pub and with its well stocked village shop and popular Bramble's cafe.
Walks for all abilities are a plenty and straight from the door.
Accommodation: The usual entrance is via the back door where you can leave boots bikes and outdoor gear in the utility/garage area, also on this level you will find a single en-suite bedroom (shower, basin, wc), before taking the open tread spiral stairs to the first floor.
The good sized open plan living area has views across the road to neighbouring fields (TV, DVD, mini hi-fi with bluetooth, electric fire).
The fitted kitchen area creates an L-shape with the sitting room, ideal for family socialising whilst meals are being prepared.
Broad spiral stairs to the upper floor access the two bedrooms (one double and a twin room).
Modern family bathroom (P-bath with shower over, basin and wc). The cottage is comfortable in all seasons with decor in tasteful neutral colours and fitted carpets throughout.

Safe bike storage in integral garage. A small area to the front of the cottage provides outside seating to take in the tranquility of Chapel Stile. A few hundred yards to shop and pub at Chapel Stile. Bus route passes the door.

We have stayed before and it suits us, but possibly not everyone as there are several stairs to climb and it has no garden just a patch at the front with nice view. Handy for walks from the door, a good Co-op and good pub/eatery within short walking distance.
Very good

Cottage was ideally situated for walks from the door, with lovely views and so peaceful and good parking. Very comfortable and so well equipped. Only problem could see is visiting in colder weather and having to wait for storage heaters to warm up.

Great location for exploring the Langdale area. Parking space at the rear, makes arriving and departing easy. The cottage is maintained to a very high standard, it is exceptionally clean and tidy throughout. The kitchen is well equipped and short of nothing. Lounge comfortable as are the beds in the bedrooms. Wouldn't hesitate to use this cottage again.
