2 mins Lake Windermere! Gorgeous quiet property, slps 8 (4 bedrooms, 3 bathrms)
Ideal property and location for a great holiday with family or friends... Spacious living areas - dining kitchen with dining table & chairs for 8, all new appliances including electric Aga and induction hob, American Fridge freezer with water dispenser and ice maker, wine chiller etc. Lovely living room with 55" Smart TV, cosy woodburner, seating for 8, plus additional fabulous Garden room with bi-folding doors overlooking fields & the Windermere Way. Blackout curtains, blinds & shutters and award winning Hypnos mattresses for a good night's sleep! Tastefully furnished & decorated. 4 bedrooms (1 SuperKing with ensuite & Juliet balcony, 1 Downstairs King with ensuite, 1 SuperKing and 1 Twin). Additional house bathroom. All bedrooms have full wardrobes, hairdryer, Alexa speaker, Smart TV. All bathrooms fully tiled, with Power rainfall showers and sensor wifi LED illuminated mist free mirrors with integrated shaver & toothbrush charger. Outside is our large patio garden overlooking open countryside views and the wonderful West Windermere Way footpath and open fields. We have outdoor dining furniture and a large Weber BBQ. Offstreet parking for 3 cars, an EV charger (extra cost to charge your EV vehicle). We are in a very priviliged location, in the small hamlet of Lakeside. The super West Windermere Way footpath is a 2 minute walk from us, or walk across the road to the Lakeside Pier and catch a steamer boat up the Lake to Bowness and Ambleside, or the little ferry running the 5 minute trip across to Fell Foot Park. The 4 star Lakeside Hotel with 2 restaurants and bar is a 2 minute walk, as is the Lakeside & Haverthwaite Steam train, and the Lakeside Aquarium. We love the 1 mile stroll down the West Windermere Way footpath along the bottom of the Lake to the Swan, with its lovely marina, paddleboarding, great pub with real fires and super outside seating area alongside the River Leven, not to mention their fantastic Holte Spa. Lots of varied walks from the door, including High & Low Dam, Finsthwaite, or take the footpath up the western shores of the lake to Sawrey and catch the ferry & steamer back to Lakeside for a full day out. All the busier spots of the South Lakes are so easily accessible - a gorgeous scenic drive up the west of Lake Windermere & Esthwaite to the honeypot village of Hawkshead, or continue a bit further to Ambleside. Grizedale Forest with its mountain bike trails & hire, and of course Go Ape, is a short drive. Or in the opposite direction, we are well placed for a short drive to lovely Cartmel, home to L'Enclume, sticky toffee pudding, The Races and Holker Hall! We provide a full information pack with suggestions, and lots of walking books & routes at the property. We also have a couple of large maps of the South Lakes on the walls so you can plan your day ahead and see where you've been. We have spent many great holidays here with family and friends, and feel it's the best location in the Lakes!

Lovely house, lovely decor, had everything we needed plus more and plenty of space. Our son loved the piano and garden room and very short walk to the steam train, aquarium, lakes cruises and hotel ❤️

Perfectly located house with a fantastic view across the field to the lake. Wonderful set up with loads of space for a family group of 8 adults. Downstairs bedroom particularly handy for grandparents. Garden room was special and brought the outside in. Well appointed with everything you could wish for. Lots of walks and attractions directly from the door. Lots of helpful hints and instructions for appliances. In summary, can’t recommend highly enough - a gorgeous place. Will be back!

Why they chose this property
We live in North Yorkshire, and have holidayed in the Lakes for many years. We were lucky enough to buy our property, then design and extend it to create our beautiful holiday let. We think it's in the perfect location, and have gone to every effort with high attention to detail, from literally planning the living spaces, down to flooring, kitchen fitments and soft furnishings. Our aim is that our guests love the property and have a wonderful holiday. We want you to love it as much as we do!
