Satterthwaite Farmhouse is a glorious 17th century residence perfectly suited to a memorable holiday or special celebration with friends. Set between Lake Windermere and Coniston Water, with the picturesque village of Hawkshead and Grizedale Forest on the doorstep, this character property has undergone a luxurious refurbishment while retaining its period charm and country house ambiance.
A lane from the pretty hamlet of Satterthwaite leads to the farmhouse with its impressive oak door opening into the first of two sitting rooms. This is a fabulous room for socialising and chatting round the wood burning stove. Underfloor heating, slate floors and superbly comfortable leather furnishings will tempt guests to sit here late into the night, or even the early hours of the next morning. A second sitting room is equally as cosy and it too has a wood burning stove, deep-cushioned leather furniture and Smart TV. The farmhouse kitchen is exactly as it should be. Welcoming, beautifully equipped and with a large and sturdy farmhouse table around which guests will enjoy lively suppers and lazy breakfasts. From here there is access to the rear garden and separate utility.
The bedrooms need to be seen to be believed. Four fabulous rooms, each with an en-suite bathroom or shower room. Between them there are king size sleigh beds, oak beams, free standing baths, monsoon showers and super king luxury. Guests will be spoilt for choice.
Close by is the village of Near Sawrey where Beatrix Potter lived and wrote her wonderful children’s books. Her cottage Hill Top is open to the public and close by are two of her favourite haunts, Esthwaite Water and Moss Eccles Tarn.
