An enchanting holiday home overlooking impressive Windermere, this enticing property is perfect for that extended family stay or break with friends. Sleeping eight guests, the four-bedroom cottage nestles 4 miles from Bowness-on-Windermere and 3.5 miles from Newby Bridge. Head out to explore the natural beauty of Cumbria and the Lake District National Park. Take an organised cruise on England’s largest lake or hire your own self-drive electric boat, canoe, kayak or paddle board. Venture 5 miles to Lakeside to take in the astounding scenery from a nostalgic steam train. Head into colourful Ambleside, 9.5 miles away, to shop, dine out or pause for a pint of local ale. Take the children into the storybook World of Beatrix Potter, 4 miles away, or to have an exhilarating afternoon at the adventure playground at Brockhole, 7 miles from the house. Here they can also dabble in water sports, archery and mini golf.
Tear yourselves away from the glorious scenery and make your way inside to discover sumptuous, reverse-level accommodation with exquisitely finished rooms. From the entrance porch, make your way down the hallway where you’ll find the first beautiful king-size bedroom, featuring an en-suite shower room, complete with a luxurious rainfall shower. There is also a utility room here, which has a door to the garden, making it an ideal place to slip wellies off and dry damp paws. A few steps from the hall take you to another lovely king-size bedroom, also with a refreshing en-suite shower room. Returning to the entrance hall, more steps down take you past another utility room and a further wonderful king-size bedroom, with picturesque lake views and steps up to its chic en-suite shower room. There is also a delightful zip-and-link super-king-size bedroom here (can be made into a twin on request) with views of the water and an en-suite shower room. Slide open the glass doors to the veranda here on summer days and step out into the sunshine. Climb the carpeted stairs to the first-floor landing, which leads to the heart of the superior accommodation, the expansive, light-filled living area. Lined with picture windows to pull the views right inside, this open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner is where you will rest, recuperate and spend quality time together between excursions. Settle on the plush sofas to gaze out at the scenery or to watch your favourite show on the Smart TV. Find everything you need over in the immaculate kitchen area to help you prepare delicious meals for your party to enjoy at the table. There is also a handy, separate WC on this floor.
Savour the serenity of the outstanding setting from the enclosed garden, where children and any four-legged friends can play out happily. Take in the views from the wrap-around veranda or two large, decked areas. There are two EV charges here, plus private parking for four cars.
