This fabulous country cottage is the perfect base for hikers and cyclists, nestled deep in the Lake District’s walking territory and just a stone’s throw from Lake Windermere (1 mile). Cosiness is guaranteed in this charming abode, where a wood burner in the inviting lounge provides the ideal spot to curl up and unwind after a long, rewarding walk. Designed for couples or small families, the property accommodates up to three guests with a king-size bedroom and a single room, which can also be used for storing suitcases or outdoor gear. Step outside and explore peaceful country lanes and picture-postcard villages, heading out in any direction to discover a new beauty spot each day.
Original beams, stone-flagged floors, and antique-style wrought iron bedframes add to the farmhouse charm of this delightful two-storey retreat. Step inside and feel instantly at home as you relax in the cosy lounge, complete with a TV, wood burner, and comfortable seating. A dining area is tucked beneath a window in this space, while the well-equipped galley kitchen lies just next door. Upstairs, you’ll find a king-size bedroom and a single room, along with a modern shower room. To the rear of the property, a shared grassy garden offers a lovely spot to greet the neighbours or enjoy a drink alfresco. There’s also generous off-road parking for two to three cars.
Just a mile away, the hamlet of Storrs sits on the edge of Lake Windermere, home to a luxury restaurant and bar – perfect for treating yourself to some well-earned refreshments. Nearby, Brant Fell (1.5 miles) offers a steep but rewarding climb, with sweeping views over Bowness-on-Windermere (1.5 miles) from the summit. Bowness and the neighbouring town of Windermere (3 miles) provide a wealth of shops, cafes, and restaurants, all conveniently close to your home away from home.
