Wyke View is a beautifully renovated three-bedroom retreat in Bowness on Windermere, with hot tub, barrel sauna, games room and private garden. Sleeping six guests, it combines luxury interiors with exceptional outdoor space, just moments from the lake, village centre and the wider South Lakes.
The Space:
Set over multiple levels and recently transformed through a full renovation, Wyke View has been thoughtfully designed to balance comfort, style and entertainment.
The house offers three beautifully appointed super king bedrooms, each with its own en suite, giving every guest a sense of privacy and comfort. A fourth cloakroom WC on the ground floor adds extra convenience for groups.
At the heart of the home is a sophisticated living space centred around a wood burning stove, creating a warm focal point for relaxed evenings after days spent exploring the Lakes. The kitchen has been designed for gathering as much as cooking, with high end appliances including a boiling water tap, wine fridge, ice machine and Sage Barista Pro coffee machine.
A dedicated games room with pool table adds a social element to the home, offering another space to unwind together.
Outside, Wyke View truly comes into its own. The landscaped garden has been designed as a private wellness retreat, featuring a six-person hot tub, barrel sauna, outdoor shower and a dedicated badminton and pickleball court. There are also a charcoal barbecue and outdoor seating for long evenings spent dining alfresco.
