This stone-built cottage is located in the heart of Bowness on Windermere.
Little Brook Cottage is a two-bedroom cottage which is bursting with character; ideal for holidaymakers who want a charming property with stunning scenery right on the doorstep and a stone's throw from some great local pubs.
Its stone-built nature gives this cottage the traditional Lakeland feel but it has been tastefully furnished throughout and is equipped to the highest standard. It is the ideal blend of character and modern amenities. The well-equipped kitchen with dining area is the perfect place for knocking up something tasty before retreating to the comfortable lounge and enjoying a relaxing evening in front of the TV or maybe belting out some classics with the music centre on offer. The cottage sleeps four people in two bedrooms, one double and one twin, and there's a shower room and a ground floor wet room.
There is also a small courtyard outside the cottage allowing the opportunity to take a seat in the fresh air.
