About this cottage rental
Located 1 mile from Windermere in the UNESCO World Heritage Lake District, this contemporary self-catering break makes the perfect base for outdoorsy guests and keen explorers looking to admire this wild and picturesque landscape. The ferry port at Bowness is a short drive away (4 miles), and is dominated by major summits, as is The World of Beatrix Potter Attraction, which draws in literature fans year-on-year. Hawkshead, Grasmere and Ambleside are all within 10 miles, and offer cosy eateries and independent shopping, while thrill seekers are bound to go west to the region's major summits of Bowfell and Scafell Pike (13.5 miles). Partake in watersports at Coniston Water or the smaller Esthwaite Water (13.5 miles) before heading back into the centre of Windermere for a fine dining experience. From the cobbled courtyard, head into the first-floor open-plan living area of this relaxing retreat. Crisp, sharp lines, pale woods and a subtle, muted palette define this modern interior. Settle in for a night on the L-shaped deep leather sofa, flick on the TV, and add a glow to the room with the electric fire. The high-end kitchen appliances make meal preparation a joy, and the dining area, adjacent to the kitchen, is perfect for meals with loved ones. Drift off in the super-king-size bed on the second floor. This thoughtfully designed space offers plush dressing gowns, locally sourced toiletries and an exceptional en-suite bathroom with a roll-top tub. Find two king-size bedrooms on the ground floor, both decorated to a high standard, boasting TVs, and sharing a stylish shower room with WC. Finishing off this floor is the handy washing area. From the ground floor bedrooms, spill out onto the stoned courtyard, where you might bask in the Cumbrian air or enjoy some leisurely reading. Private parking is available for three cars.
The barn forms part of a wider estate that includes five one-bedroom barn cottages, five three-bedroom homes and a seven-bedroom Victorian house, all available individually or in combination – a versatile choice for gatherings large or small.
