The Pavilion, Applethwaite Hall is one of a small number of beautiful apartments in this superbly restored Arts and Crafts masterpiece. Originally built for the Roberts family by the renowned architect Thomas Muirhead, who designed the pavilions at The Oval and Old Trafford, Applethwaite Hall was completed in 1901 and enjoys views over Orrest Head and The Langdales. The Hall sits in its own private gardens bordered by woods and fields where deer and badgers are regularly seen.
Just a couple of miles from the banks of Windermere, this pretty apartment makes a lovely holiday getaway for up to four guests. Set on the lower ground floor of the magnificent Applethwaite Hall, this bright and appealing retreat is perfect for keen walkers, cyclists and nature lovers discovering the region’s beautiful fells, woodlands and lakes. Dating back to 1901, this idyllic Arts and Crafts property occupies private gardens with chances to spot deer and badgers in the surrounding woods and fields and offers stunning views over Orrest Head and the Langdales.
Entering this impressive country house, the hallway leads down to the beautiful apartment on the lower ground floor. Stepping inside, the inner hallway has a handy reading area, desk and a choice of useful maps and local books.
