Beech Cottage
Just a mile outside the old village of Scales, Cumbria, lies Beech Cottage, a remote country cottage from which families can embark on Lakeland countryside adventures. This pretty, semi-detached cottage in the Lake District sits just a mile from the beaches along Morecambe Bay and a short drive from the popular market town of Ulverston.
The child-friendly cottage comfortably sleeps a family of four, with two delightful bedrooms and a ground-floor bathroom with shower and basin. The small, well-equipped kitchen opens to a porch area, while the spacious sitting room comes with a cosy multi-fuel stove, TV with DVD player, and access to a small front garden and patio area with furniture. The pet-friendly cottage welcomes up to two well-behaved dogs and comes with a washing machine and tumble dryer.
This Scales holiday cottage lies in the heart of the Cumbrian peninsula, with plenty of accessible day trips available for families on the go. The Furness Estuary and its sandy beaches and good bird-watching opportunities and fabulous Lake District National Park are within easy reach, as are nearby family attractions such as Muncaster Castle, the South Lakes Wild Animal Park, and the Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway. The old market town of Ulverston still has the look and feel of when King Edward I granted its market charter in 1280.

A well equipped cottage in a peaceful location.
We stayed in Beech Cottage over the February Half Term Holiday.
We arrived late on Friday evening and were delighted to find the fire was lit, there was fresh milk in the fridge, and tea and coffee on the worktop in the kitchen, all we needed to do was boil the kettle!
The fuel was included, the cottage was warm, clean and well equipped.
We had a fantastic stay and would recommened the property to anyone wanting a quiet break.

Lovely village and position but you need a car
Had a lovely relaxing stay nice and central to see other areas providing you have a car.
Quiet and friendly
The cottage is in a very quiet and friendly village. The perfect place to rest and relax which was what I needed and our dog had a lovely time on the walks.
The area surrounding the cottage itself was beautiful with peace and tranquility. We were met by the owners who had already lit the fire and left us fresh milk in the fridge!
The holiday was lovely, the cottage was very comfortable and nicely laid out and in a lovely peaceful village but not too far from major towns. The weather was glorious which obviously helped!
Lovely, cosy cottage, very well maintained in a peaceful area. We enjoyed our stay very much.
This was a late booking and we were lucky to find such a nice cottage to take pets. We loved location, the freedom it gave us, and we were very lucky with the weather. The neighbours were friendly and let us have lots of information about the area.
The location; very quiet and peaceful.
Cottage very clean, nicely and tastefully equipped, cosy and comfortable.
Nice location and the neighbours are very friendly. It was lovely coming back to the cottage on a cold evening to a wood burning fire.
It was a home from home, very comfortable, fantastic views and local area for walking and biking. Ideal place to take our dog and very easy to find.
Perfect location, fantastic decor and it is dog and baby friendly.
Ideal location for the beach and for dog walking. Lovely to have a wood burner ready to be lit.
The location of the property was an excellent base between the beach and the lakes.
The cottage was excellent, accessible to both lakes and coast. The scenery is outstanding and plenty to do in the area.
A cosy cottage with very helpful owners. We loved the wood burning stove!
The main living area was very nicely furnished and the level of cleanliness was fantastic.
Nice cottage, nice village. It was really handy for our family party.
The cottage in an ideal location and was an ideal size and clean. The wood burner was great following a days walking, the dogs especially liked lying in front of it. We will be visiting again in the future.
This was the perfect holiday cottage we have stayed at in this area. It was just like being back at home, comfortable and very friendly and welcoming. We shall be going there again.
Loved the location of the cottage, gorgeous little village. Cozy log burner. Loved that it was dog friendly too. I would return.
The house was a good base for us. We were able to get to all our activities easily. It was warm and cosy for us to relax when we returned in the evening.
This cottage is in a small village and the neighbours are very friendly. It is very peaceful and well located. An ideal base for days out and quiet evenings
The cottage was lovely and quite remote which was good. The sitting room was comfy and my family and I had a great time.
Cosy, very comfortable and so peaceful. Even in November it was a lovely place for my two Yorkies.
