Situated in Watermillock, just a mile above Ullswater, High House Farm Holiday Cottages offer a picturesque escape in the heart of the Lake District. Surrounded by 10 acres of open fields and breathtaking views of the Fells, these charming self-catering cottages have been lovingly converted within the traditional stone buildings of a former working farm.
Each cottage radiates quality and character with original stone features and wooden beams adding warmth, quirkiness and charm. Thoughtfully designed for comfort and ease of use, the cottages are single-level living and have excellent en-suite facilities, creating a relaxing and accessible space.
Set within peaceful surroundings, each cottage sits privately from the others and includes an enclosed outdoor seating area with furniture and a fire pit - perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring the Lakes. Guests also have access to ample parking and convenient storage for bikes, canoes and sailing dinghies and our pet-friendly cottages mean you can bring your dog along too.
Whether your plan is a quiet escape or an adventure packed Lake District holiday. High House Farm Holiday Cottages are the perfect base where every detail has been carefully considered to provide a true home from home feel. With Ullswater Lake just down the road, there’s plenty to explore including walks from the door to Aira Force, the Ullswater Way, Little Mell Fell and Gowbarrow Fell, - 2 of the 214 iconic Wainwright fells.
A 20 minute drive from the M6 makes us accessible for short breaks or full week holidays. High House Farm is more than just a place to stay, it is a sanctuary of peace and tranquility which will make you want to return time and again.
