Unwind and release yourself from the daily grind in this cosy apartment in the Lake District. Kitted out with everything you need to make the most of your time in the great outdoors, including a bath to relax those sore legs, bike storage, and a beautiful view to take in your surroundings, it's perfect for a getaway in the Lakes. With an open space that's ideal for socialising, this is an ideal home for a group of friends or family. The little ones will particularly enjoy the steam train that passes by every day on the Haverthwaite Railway, and you're just steps away from the River Leven. Although the interior is sleek and contemporary, this home embraces its natural surroundings and community spirit, with ethical, sustainable toiletries made by a local brand and ground coffee supplied by a local family roaster. This spirit is alive both in the home and in the many beautiful villages that surround Lake Windermere's southern end. One such place is Lakeside, a seven-minute drive away, a small, quaint village surrounded by forestry. You can also easily get to the towns of Bowness, Cartmel, and Grange-over-Sands in under twenty minutes by car, all with access to Lake Windermere....

Local guide


About The Lake District

Poets and novelists have often escaped to the Lake District for a spot of inspiration. Famously, Wordsworth pondered about daffodils and clouds during his time here. The undulating hills are tracked with drystone walls while sheep graze, and farmsteads enjoy untouched beauty for miles around. England’s biggest lake, Windermere, cuts through a valley, sleek as glass and hosts a litany of cosy-pub-filled towns and water sports venues along its shores....
