This beautifully renovated Victorian cottage is ideally placed between Windermere and Bowness in the heart of the Lake District. With the amenities of these two bustling villages just a short walk away, MyInbeck provides a charming holiday home for families and friends alike. The cottage style kitchen is sure to encourage some home-cooking with a range cooker with five ring gas hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, while the dining table provides a lovely spot to enjoy meals amidst your loved ones. Carry the conversation in the sitting room where you can sink into the plush sofas and flick on the woodburning stove, or on a balmy day throw open the patio doors to allow a seamless transition to the outside. At the end of each fun-filled day, retire to either of the bedrooms with its crisp and clean linens being perfect for a relaxing evening with a good book, as well as there being ample storage for all your walking gear and more. Begin each day in the family bathroom with a refreshing shower or return here in the evening and set the temperature for a soothing bath. To complete this charming dwelling there is a lovely patio area which catches the sun all afternoon and evening with a table, chairs and a stone bench to relax on. Windermere village can be found just a short walk uphill and has an abundance of shops, pubs and restaurants, whereas Bowness is a similar distance downhill and offers plenty more amenities including a cinema, Lake Cruises and a miniature golf course, so there’s no need to use the car on a daily basis. There are also many walks that can be enjoyed from the door including School Knot and Orrest Head which are rewarded with staggering views over the lakes and fells in the distance. Be sure to visit the National Trust owned Hill Top, which was once the home of Beatrix Potter, it now offers visitors a chance to see the 17th-century farmhouse where you can learn more about the author’s life with wonderful references throughout. In reach of Kendal, Coniston and beyond, MyInbeck is a delightful escape at any time of year.
The twin towns of Bowness and Windermere are both vibrant, fun-filled places set within the splendid scenery of the Lake District. Both towns provide a range of amenities, shops and restaurants to suit all tastes whilst Ambleside offers the additional attraction of a boat ride to Bowness, the Lakeside Aquarium and Beatrix Potter's 'Hill Top House' at Sawrey. Grizedale Forest Park is within easy driving distance and is home to a range of activities including many good walks, mountain biking and the 'Go Ape' adventure park. The region also boasts many National Trust properties as well as a variety of water sports for those who prefer a more adrenaline-fuelled trip. Children will enjoy a trip to the 'World of Beatrix Potter' in Bowness whilst the villages of Grasmere, Coniston Water, Kendal, Keswick and the Lakeland Mountains are all within easy reach.
