A traditional characterful Lakeland property located in the most beautiful setting within the Lake District National Park in Duddon Valley. This homely cosy, well proportioned residence offers three bedrooms, house bathroom and ample living accommodation with double glazing through out and will make a wonderful family home or holiday residence. This unique property also benefits from generous outdoor spaces of garden, vegetable patch and patio, off-road parking and an everchanging outlook over countryside and woodland.
Situated in the beautiful Duddon Valley, which is a peaceful and unspoilt area in the southwest corner of the Lake District National Park. Nestled between Coniston and Eskdale, the valley was a favourite of the poet William Wordsworth, and has often been called a “hidden gem”. It is set amongst the beautiful Furness and Dunnerdale fells and close to the picturesque village of Broughton-in-Furness (approx 1 mile) which has previously been voted Village of the Year in 2002 and has an excellent community with cafes, pubs, local shops and bakery. The property is also close to the market town of Ulverston.
The popular Blacksmiths Arms in Broughton Mills is only 3 miles away and the Newfield Inn in Seathwaite, 6 miles away, Coniston is 9 miles and Ambleside is 18 miles away. There are good road links via the A595 and A590 trunk road connecting it to the M6, Barrow-in-Furness and north to Scotland.

What Other Related Technologies Does PropertyHeads Use, and Why?
Tracking Pixels: Our advertising partners may use tracking pixels or similar technology to measure the success of the sponsored posts or other advertising products they use. A “tracking pixel” (also sometimes called web beacon, or clear GIF) is a tiny piece of code, invisible to the user, placed on a webpage or in an email and used in combination with a cookie, to link a given activity or impression back to the user; the advertiser includes it in its content so it can measure whether our members interact with that content (for example, by clicking to view an offer). We may set our own tracking pixel on an advertiser’s website so we can measure whether our members found the advertiser’s content effective or interesting, by tracking whether the sponsored post prompted members to take advantage of the advertised offer. This information helps us assess whether sponsored posts and other advertising offers are relevant and interesting to our members and successful for the advertiser.
