Description
LOCATION
The property is located on Yewdale Road, the main road travelling through the centre of the Lakeland village of Coniston.
Coniston is a village and civil parish in the Furness region of Cumbria within the southern part of the Lake District National Park. The village, which has a population of 928 (2011 Census), is located on the northwest shores of Coniston Water and sits at the mouth of the Coppermine Valley and Yewdale Beck which descends from the Coniston Fells, historically the location of ore and slate mining.
Coniston was developed as a farming village but is now very much a popular tourist destination with visitors enjoying the attractive location and a range of cafes, restaurants and public houses, water sports on Coniston Water, the John Ruskin Museum which now houses Donald Campbell's boat, Bluebird K7 and Coniston Old Man, at 803m. There are also a range of hotels, youth hostels, bed and breakfasts and holiday let as well as popular campsites adjacent to Coniston Water and the village is within striking distance to other nearby attractions such as Grizedale Forest, Hawkshead and Tarn Hows.
