Lake View

About this property

Gaze out over the fells to Lake Windermere in the distance and feel the peace and quiet of this special location, yet still only a short walk from the vibrant village centre and lake shore. With a wall of glass in the top floor living area, opening to a furnished balcony, Lake View absolutely lives up to its name and provides an unforgettable retreat.

There’s ample space for dining in, and in addition the balcony offers an idyllic outdoor space, with furniture set and BBQ. It's rare to find such an incredible outlook in such a convenient location, with lake cruises, boating activities, sophisticated shopping and a characterful nightlife just waiting to be explored only a short walk away. Steps lead up to the first floor entrance porch, into a hallway then into the well-equipped kitchen / dining room. The living room has a wall of floor-to-ceiling windows, perfect for gazing out into nature. The garden and patio are ideal for pre-dinner drinks, or a morning coffee. On the ground floor is the modern bathroom along with two spacious and beautiful bedrooms, one double and one king size.

Windermere village centre has a delightful busy traditional feel, with lots of shops, galleries and cafes, along with a superior Booths supermarket., traditional Lakeland pubs and restaurants. 2 miles down the road, you’ll discover the bustling, cosmopolitan Bowness-on-Windermere, with shops, bars, restaurants and of course the Lake itself. Here you enjoy lake cruises, which can take you up to Ambleside & Lakeside, hire boats and generally enjoy the fantastic views. Jump straight onto the main A591 to head north along to Ambleside, Grasmere & Keswick. You’ll also access the Langdale Valley and Coniston, and a scenic drive over the Kirkstone Pass, through the Troutbeck Valley drops you down to Ullswater. You'll also lovely strolls from the doorstep of your Windermere holiday cottage – why not walk to the top of Orrest Head, where the lake views are the same today as the ones that inspired Alfred Wainwright.
