Description
Carefully appointed throughout, this Lakeside cottage has four bedrooms, with two enjoying views across the grounds to the water. The sitting room has a feature fireplace with woodburner, whilst out of the large windows are breathtaking views of the surrounding fields and woods, a haven for wildlife including deer and woodpeckers. The large kitchen at this Lakeside cottage has a farmhouse appeal with a soft sitting area. Outside this Lakeside cottage are extensive grounds to explore, plus a hot tub and outdoor furniture, along with a superb, woodchipped children’s play area with a variety of equipment including a 'witch’s hat’ swing. Little ones will also love the Lakeland Motor Museum as well as Dalton Zoo, which can be reached in under half an hour by car. Just over two and a half miles from this Windermere cottage is the Whitewater Hotel and Cascades Spa and Leisure Club, with superb facilities including a gym, swimming pool, sauna, hot tub and steam room. The departure point for the popular Windermere Steamers is just three minutes’ walk away, along with The Aquarium of the Lakes. For young rail enthusiasts, a ride on the Lakeside and Haverthwaite Steam Railway will take them straight into the world of Thomas the Tank Engine. There’s an abundance of walks, with the path to Finsthwate’s High Dam starting a stone’s throw away, and a little further, those that trail to the summit of Gummer’s Howe. Mountain bike routes and Go Ape adventure can be found in nearby Grizedale Forest, and a whole host of water-based activities are available on Lake Windermere. At the close of a busy day, return to this hidden gem.
A great way to see the wonderful local scenery is on the famous Furness Railway which runs between Haverthwaite and Newby Bridge, or take a look at the Aquarium of the Lakes which uses naturally themed habitats to bring the history of the Lakes vividly to life. Lake Windermere itself offers some magnificent views, as do the surrounding fells and the picturesque village of Hawkshead - a place that inspired such internationally well known authors as William Wordsworth and Beatrix Potter.
