After a busy day sightseeing or rambling the surrounding fells, look forward to coming back to the property and being welcomed into the cosy sitting room, where a plush sofa is positioned in front of the TV and woodburning stove, offering a gentle warmth during the colder months. Take yourself into the kitchen for some tasty home-cooking, with a selection of appliances around cream units and sloping ceiling windows making the most of the natural light. The property also comes with a handy dishwasher and washing machine too for your convenience. From here, climb the stairs to find the king-size bedroom, dressed in a neutral décor with attractive fabrics to complete the scene, and a refreshing shower room. To the exterior there is parking next to the property for one car and a quaint south-facing patio, where table and chairs offer a spot for alfresco dining during a sunny afternoon. When you don’t feel like cooking then you can walk into the centre of Windermere, where you will be spoilt for choice by the selection of cafés, pubs and restaurants that are awaiting, as well as a number of shops to pick up any essentials and gifts for your loved ones back home. Explore the largest lake in England by climbing on board the iconic Windermere steamer, offering a circular cruise with stop offs at Ambleside and Lakeside, perfect for quaint day out. If you would rather explore the area on foot, there are plenty of walks from the door with leisurely strolls around the Tarn Hows or up Orrest Head, a hill with panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. The Potting Shed is a superb dwelling for taking on all that the Lake District has to offer.

The twin towns of Bowness and Windermere are both vibrant, fun-filled places set within the splendid scenery of the Lake District. Both towns provide a range of amenities, shops and restaurants to suit all tastes whilst Ambleside offers the additional attraction of a boat ride to Bowness, the Lakeside Aquarium and Beatrix Potter's 'Hill Top House' at Sawrey. Grizedale Forest Park is within easy driving distance and is home to a range of activities including many good walks, mountain biking and the 'Go Ape' adventure park. The region also boasts many National Trust properties as well as a variety of water sports for those who prefer a more adrenaline-fuelled trip. Children will enjoy a trip to the 'World of Beatrix Potter' in Bowness whilst the villages of Grasmere, Coniston Water, Kendal, Keswick and the Lakeland Mountains are all within easy reach.
