Where you'll be

Ellonby is a delightful, quiet hamlet surrounded by fabulous walking country, yet offering easy proximity to the M6 and within a 15 minute drive of Ullswater. A short walk from the house takes you to Skelton where the famous Michelin Dog and Gun pub provides a warm welcome and fantastic food and drink. The market town of Penrith is 6 miles away with a range of supermarkets and independent shops, and the west coast main line to London and Glasgow.
