About this property
The Retreat, Windermere
Set just on the outskirts of Windermere, a 15-20 minute walk away, The Retreat is nestled in a quiet complex surrounded by trees and nature, making it a fabulous stay for couples who wish to explore Windermere and near by towns and relax after a long day up in the Areas of Natural Beauty, such as Coniston.
The renovated sapce features 1 room, that is equipped a super-king sized bed and a TV. Accompanying the ensuite, guests will have shampoo, conditioner, and body wash from the brand Faith in Nature; the bathrooms also offer hotel standard bath sheets and hand towels.
The space offers a mini fridge, a Nespresso pod machine, a kettle, and basic cutlery and crockery.
One of the main features of The Hidden Retreat is the electric hot tub which is hidden in the Mediterranean-inspired courtyard which makes for a perfect place to spend and enjoy time with each other.
The Retreat is pet friendly!
