Description At A Glance Location Testimonials

A stone built village cottage for up to 4 guests which is close to amenities and with waterfalls and stunning walks, such as Coniston Old Man, from the door.

Close to all the village amenities stands a slate built Victorian terrace, Dixon Ground. Perfectly positioned on the footpath to the Old Man of Coniston and Levers Water, and on the foothills of the crags behind, these terraced cottages are ideal for walkers, cyclists, waterfalls seekers and outdoor lovers keen to get straight onto the fells.

Number 4 Dixon has been beautifully refurbished for 2026 to create a warm and welcoming home-from-home. The cottage is perfect for couples or small families, offering cosy yet comfortable accommodation in an ideal location.

Those with bigger groups however have numerous options for neighbouring accommodation, with Numbers 3, 2 and 1 also available. Number 3 Dixon Ground sleeps 6 guests across 3 bedrooms, Number 2 sleeps a further 4 guests and Number 1 sleeps up to 10 guests across 4 bedrooms, thus extending the sleeping capacity and allowing groups of up to 24 to be comfortably accommodated. Ideal for those big family get-togethers and celebrations.

Though centrally located, with a pub within rolling distance, the Dixon Ground Cottages are pleasantly peaceful. In essence Number 4 Dixon Ground would suit couples or small families looking to relax and enjoy the local area.

Coniston is simply an excellent base for any Lake District holiday. The village is packed with friendly pubs, local shops and lively cafes and there is incredible walking straight from the village centre, including the iconic Coniston Old Man. The village enjoys ample access to Coniston Water lake shore, with Coniston Boating Centre offering paddle-boarding, kayaking, sailing and more. There are also plenty of opportunities for wild-swimming including the lake, beautiful mountain tarns and the picturesque Church Beck river with its stunning waterfalls and deep, crystal clear pools. For cyclists, there are spectacular off-road mountain biking trails including those at nearby Grizedale Forest, as well as some stunning road routes through some of the country's most beautiful scenery.

For those who enjoy a quieter pace, The Ruskin Museum, which depicts the fascinating history of the area including the famous water speed record attempt of Donald Campbell is a must visit. While on the eastern shores of the lake lies Brantwood, the Victorian home of John Ruskin, where visitors can explore the historic house and vibrant arts centre and enjoy some delicious food from The Terrace cafe with its breath-taking lake and mountain views.

The wider Lake District area is also very easily accessible from Coniston, with popular destinations such as Ambleside, Bowness and Windermere just a short drive away.

In short, Coniston offers everything you could possibly want of a Lake District holiday - all right on your doorstep.

4 Dixon Ground is a delightful cottage in the heart of the village of Coniston. Equipped with everything you need for a relaxing stay, the four poster bed and the open fire are two notable highlights. Designated parking is an added bonus. The cottage was welcoming, clean and everything was in working order. Situated right on the path of the Old Man of Coniston and other fells. This is a cottage I can't wait to return to again.
