4 bedroom detached house for sale

Location: Old Mill Cottage is situated in the village of Crook in a most attractive location at the head of the former mill yard. Crook is ideally located being situated within the Lake District National Park and yet away from the busy tourist locations. From Junction 36 off the M6, take the A591 by-passing the market town of Kendal. On reaching the roundabout take the first turning signposted to Crook. Mill Cottages is then central to the village past the Sun Inn. Take the first left turning after the Inn into the hamlet and the cottage can be seen straight in front of you.
