Drumlins

About this property

This characterful part barn conversion, Drumlins, is idyllically positioned on the outskirts of the pint-sized village of Lowick Green. Framing far-reaching views across the peaceful greenery of Cumbria and enjoying close proximity to The Old Man of Coniston and Coniston Water, Drumlins offers a wonderful rural retreat for both families and friends alike. Park up on the driveway and marvel at the breath-taking greenery that envelopes this lovely abode before unloading your belongings and settling in. A well-equipped utility greets you upon entry, providing a handy space to kick off your muddy walking boots and freshen up your holiday attire following a day of exploration.

Moving through the property, discover a sociable open-plan living space, beautifully adorned with Burlington slate flooring and bathed in natural light welcomed through the patio doors. Uncork a bottle of wine and enjoy a conversation with the chef at the elegant breakfast bar as they utilise the electric oven and induction hob to whip up a range of tasty treats before gathering together with your loved ones at the dining table to indulge. In the summer months, throw open the patio doors and enjoy an alfresco affair amongst the peaceful greenery of the rear garden as your four-legged friends stretch their legs.

As the skies grow darker, retreat indoors and settle down for the evening with a sumptuous spot in front of the telly in either of the sitting rooms, with a blockbuster-classic playing in one and a cartoon playing in the other, or escape into the pages of a good book in the reading nook on the landing. When sleep calls, you're spoilt for choice between three well-presented bedrooms, with a super-king-size (offering a flexible zip/link feature, ideal for couples, families and friends sharing), a double room and a ground floor king-size room. Servicing the property is a stylish bathroom, where you can pour in the bubbles and indulge in a blissful soak, and a ground-floor shower room, ideal for those with limited mobility.

A short walk from your doorstep will bring you into the heart of Lowick Green, where you can refuel with a spot of hearty pub fare at the local pub, The Farmer's Arms, or enjoy a crisp pint of real ale in the garden at The Royal Oak. Lace up your walking boots and embark on an adventure to the summit of The Old Man of Coniston, renowned as the highest point of the historic county of Lancashire and affording unrivalled views across the surrounding countryside, whilst those looking for a more lei-surely stroll may prefer a wander alongside the glistening waters of Lake Windermere or Coniston Water.

Keep the little ones entertained with a visit to Grizedale Forest, home to the exhilarating treetop adventure course, Go Ape Grizedale, or for a change of scenery, enjoy a coastal adventure with a trip to the Furness Coast, with miles of glorious beaches and wildlife waiting to be discovered. Drumlins makes an excellent base for a group retreat to the lakes.

Greenodd is a small village in the Crake Valley, on the edge of the Lake District National Park. Greenodd, once a thriving 18th century shipbuilding and commercial port, is now a quiet village with a few shops and a historic tavern, The Ship.

All the National Park's attractions, including Coniston and Windermere, are easily accessible, as is the magnificent Furness Coast.
