 Brocklebank Ground House
Torver, Coniston, Cumbria.,United Kingdom
Nestling under the Coniston Fells in the heart of the Lake District National Park, this wonderful Georgian house (ref LK8) and group of delightful cottages (refs LD3 and LD4) (converted from a 17th-century barn) form a quaint hamlet-style setting with superb open views. Torver is a small picturesque village situated 3 miles south-west of Coniston in a beautiful and romantic valley, surrounded by spectacular scenery. The village is welcoming, warm and friendly and has two pubs serving good food (660 yards). The area abounds with woods, crags, streams and waterfalls, and is home to a wealth of wildlife including a variety of bird life, red squirrels and wild deer. Walks from the doorstep lead directly to Coniston Old Man and the shore of Coniston Water. Coniston is a famous centre for walking, climbing and cycling and boats may be hired on the lake, as well as trips taken on the Victorian steam yacht Gondola. Windermere, Ambleside, Hawkshead, Grasmere, Beatrix Potter's Sawrey and the southern peninsulas and coastline of Cumbria are all within a scenic drive. Superb visitor attractions such as the Dalton Wild Animal Park with its Sumatran tigers and Aquarium of the Lakes at Lakeside are easily accessible for an excellent day out. The area is rich in historic houses and gardens including Muncaster castle, Holker hall and grounds with its Lakeland Motor Museum, Sizergh castle, Levens hall and topiary gardens.
