Overview
Property code: 82811

A luxurious, grand house set in its own grounds with views over the stunning Lake Windermere and your own private hot tub - you’ll never want to leave.

This delightful property is perfect for a group of friends or a family reunion; sleeping ten guests in five bedrooms, and with two super-king-size bedrooms able to be made into a twin room, it easily adaptable for many parties. Adults and teens can enjoy their own space with both the living room and the lounge having wood burners, while the hall is perfect for relaxing with a good book – there is a wood burner here too. Explore the surrounding countryside discovering eateries and pubs along the way before returning to soak weary limbs in the bubbling hot tub.

Simple, elegant interiors are complemented by a neutral palette of white and cream, creating a light, airy space punctuated with tasteful flashes of colour in the artwork and soft furnishings. With a winning combination of style and comfort throughout, there is plenty of space for large parties to spread out and find a little solitude. Gather for celebratory meals in the dining room and, on warm evenings, open the patio doors to the deck. After a day of exploring, the laundry space and cloakroom is essential for drying outdoor gear and ideal for a dog bed. Warm your toes against the AGA in the kitchen before gathering for a movie night in the lounge, the wood burner roaring and your pup at your feet. The five bedrooms are elegant in relaxing tones for a restful nights sleep, and older guests will benefit from the accessible ground-floor bedroom. Upstairs, find a further king-size bedroom and two super-king-size bedrooms – one with an en-suite shower room. Enjoy a morning coffee in the kitchen with the doors open to the world, or perhaps take a stroll in the spacious garden bursting with shrubs and trees, waking up with the birdsong. In the evening, fire up the large gas BBQ to indulge in some al fresco dining with wonderful views over Lake Windermere. Or simply relax in the sumptuous hot tub soaking up the peace and tranquillity – the perfect way to end a busy day. There is private parking for up to three cars and secure storage for bikes.

Beautifully presented, very well equipped traditional large lakeside house in a quiet, beautiful area of Windermere. Watch out for the badger that comes to hoover up the bird food around the bird feeder in the back garden! It helps if you are used to cooking on an Aga. All in all we had a superb week! Would come again anytime.
