Enjoying a rural setting within the Lake District National Park and just a stone’s throw away from Lake Windermere, whilst benefiting from a private driveway, a homely living space, and a rear garden, the apartment delivers the ideal base for a couple’s retreat, enveloped by hidden gems and nature-filled walking trails. Park up and climb the steps, entering the inviting living/dining room, offering the perfect space to relax after a day of hiking and exploring, featuring plush recliner sofas, a gas fire, Smart TV, and a dining table to enjoy meals for two. Head into the kitchen to fulfil your self-catered needs, where you’ll find an array of culinary appliances, including a double electric oven and dishwasher. Venture outside for some fresh air, where you can also dine, whilst taking in your peaceful surrounding, before returning indoors for a refresh in the en-suite, featuring both a bath and walk-in shower. Rest in the king-size bedroom before awakening to an agenda filled with attractions, with the chance to trek up Wansfell Pike, tour Rydal Cave, visit Stock Ghyll Force, or discover The Bridge House and its heritage. Travelling towards Grasmere, enjoy a stroll alongside the waterfall walkways, explore Wordsworth Grasmere, the former home of renowned poet William Wordsworth, or enjoy a tour of National Trust – Allan Bank and Grasmere, a Grade II listed Georgian villa, steep in elegance and history.
