Walkers Boat House is an excellent property sitting directly on lakeside with stunning views across Windermere and to the fells beyond.A quality restoration of the original boat house it has everything needed, it is very well finished and spotlessly clean.
5.0 / 10.0·Sep 2022
Old boathouse renovated to the very highest standard. Lots of room for 6. Well equipped kitchen. Secluded from the bustle of Bowness but easily within walking distance of the restaurants there. Parking for 2 cars. Possibly the best location for a holiday rental, with a large balcony overlooking Lake Windermere
