The Schoolhouse is a cosy self contained building standing privately on it's own facing due south up the fell land offering character studio accommodation for two people. It would be possible to accomodate a child on the sofa bed but you would want to turn it back into a sofa during the day.

Situated adjacent to the conservatory, a path leads round to the front door where you enter into the combined lounge/dining/kitchen/bedroom area with exposed beams and stone walls.

A door leads from the bedroom area to the ensuite bathroom which has a spacious shower, hand basin and WC.

All areas are furnished with care and thought.

Woodend is set in a quiet remote location quite high on Birker Fell (approximately 950') and approached from the fell along a single track road through a gate. It has views across the fell towards Scafell Pike, (Englands's highest mountain), and is a ten minute walk from one of the smaller of the lakes, Devoke Water, which never the less is nearly a mile long!

At Woodend you not only have incredible views towards Scafell Pike from most of the rooms, but within a five minute walk you have stunning views over Devoke Water and within twenty minutes walking you can be at the top of Devoke Seat where, on a clear day, you have a 360 degree panoramic view that includes Devoke Water, the Langdales, the coast and the Isle of Man.

We pride ourselves in combining comfortable and cosy accommodation within a quiet relaxing environment.

Whether you enjoy walking, fishing, cycling, climbing, sightseeing by car or just want to close the gate after you and not return to civilisation until it suits you, this is the perfect centre for all.
