Situated in the popular town of Bowness-on-Windermere, this contemporary property is a welcome retreat for you and your guests. Sleeping four across two spacious bedrooms, this holiday home is perfect for couples or small families looking for a quiet holiday but with plenty of things to do on the doorstep. Take a walk just half a mile to the World of Beatrix Potter, or hire a canoe, kayak or bicycle from Windermere Canoe and Kayak which is 3 miles by car and just 1.5 miles on foot, and spend a day venturing around England’s longest lake.
The property, which is just a mile’s walk from the water’s edge, has a bright and airy feel thanks to its open-plan style. The kitchen diner has everything you need to get cooking, while the dining table, set in a large bay window, offers a wonderful view over the houses and countryside beyond. The lounge is a cosy haven to kick back and relax in, with soft neutral decor and rich wood furnishings that create a tranquil atmosphere. When it’s time for bed head to one of the bedrooms; the king-size bedroom, which can be made up into a twin, has patio doors leading to the garden letting in lots of natural light.
Make sure you pay a visit to Grizedale Forest (12.5 miles), which offers views from Lake Windermere to Coniston Water, and has plenty of walking trails to lead you to the best parts of the forest. If you love the work of Wordsworth, go to see Dove Cottage (9 miles) – while you’re in Grasmere you can stop off for gingerbread at the famous Grasmere Gingerbread Shop. And for something a bit more relaxing, cruise on an Ullswater Steamer from the south of the lake (14 miles).
