Greystones is the middle one of three Edwardian properties and ticks lots of boxes being in a sought after area of Bowness and really handy for everything that Bowness has to offer the holiday visitor…putting you in an ideal spot for walking to Lake Windermere, shopping and eating out, cinema, lake cruises and enjoyable walks from the door. Bowness is a year-round destination, popular with old and young alike. A short, less than five minute stroll, brings you to the shops and a bit further down the hill, The World of Beatrix Potter, and picturesque Bowness Bay with its steamer pier and boat hire. Walk from the door to Brantfell via Post Knott for fine views of the lake or join up to the Dales Way for an extended ramble in beautiful countryside towards School Knott and beyond.
