High Winder Holiday Cottages

High Winder Holiday Cottages are a charming complex of self-catering holiday homes resting on the outskirts of Askham, a beautiful village near Pooley Bridge in Cumbria. This superb collection is all in the best location to explore the picturesque landscapes of The Lake District National Park, lying high in the Lakeland Fells above the northern end of Ullswater, ideal for families and friends seeking a rural retreat.
