Cosy up on chilly evenings, dine-in in the stylish country kitchen, or make the most of your lovely garden & patio. Wander straight onto the nearby fell to admire breathtaking lake views from the summit, or stroll down the lane to Bowness, for a shop, a lake cruise or a special evening out. Private parking for two cars. Traditional slate-floored entrance porch leading into the hall, with plenty of space for walking gear. Well-equipped kitchen / dining room with pretty cottage windows. The cosy lounge is calming & bright, with a gas flame fire for ease. Upstairs to the two pretty bedrooms, one double and one single, both with lovely outlooks. The house bathroom is perfect for a long soak with shower over bath. The garden has a furnished patio, small lawn and outhouse – ideal for storing bikes.
Explore the delights of Bowness, alive with sophisticated shopping, popular Lake District family attractions and endless choice for an evening out. Or, leave the crowds behind and walk straight onto the fell from your door to admire Lake Windermere from afar. Stroll down to the lake shore, where hire boats come and go, and you can catch a Windermere Lake Cruises steamer to Ambleside or Lakeside – a scenic way to explore without taking your car. Couples might enjoy a romantic evening cruise on Lake Windermere, and young families enjoy fun attractions such as mini golf on the ‘Glebe’, a miniature steam train, the Lakes Aquarium, and open top Lake District bus tours departing. Don’t forget that Windermere Golf Club is located just outside Bowness. Touring the wider Lake District is simple and scenic by car from Bowness. Head a couple of miles up the road to Windermere, and you’ll link up to the A591 – the main route into the heart of the Lakes.
