Meadowbank Cottage

About this property

Meadowbank Cottage is perfectly located in the heart of the picturesque village of Arnside, just a short walk from the village centre with its shops and pubs. There is also a very well-stocked convenience store at the end of the road, just a stone’s throw away, stocking most foods, wines and beers. There is also a Booth’s supermarket in Milnthorpe, which is a brief journey by car. A park with a children's play area is located across the road, along with tennis courts that can be booked. It is also very close to Arnside Knott.

The property itself is a beautiful, 19th century, stone-built terraced cottage that retains many of its original features, and has been finished to a high standard. It has a sleek, fully-equipped kitchen, opulent bathroom, a dining room with a sofa and woodburning stove, and a separate, inviting sitting room. There are two spacious bedrooms, one king-size and the other, a double. There is a lovely, courtyard style garden with seating where you can enjoy your morning coffee or an evening glass of wine.

Arnside is situated in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, renowned for its stunning scenery, vibrant wildlife, and fabulous walks both inland and along the coast. It is located on the southern side of the Kent estuary with its own seafront promenade and pier. It is a year-round location offering plenty of opportunities for walking, cycling, sailing, paddle-boarding, and fishing. One of the routes to the famous Arnside Knott is within walking distance of the property, or should you prefer a seaside walk when the tide is out, you can walk along the coast to the village of Silverdale, which is roughly five miles away. You can also join onto an organised bay walk across the estuary from Arnside to Grange-Over-Sands.

Low limestone hills, marshy plains, and deciduous trees are the dominant features of the area around Arnside, which is located near the southernmost point of the Lake District and is designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Several of the historical elements of this former fishing harbour still exist. Arnside's picturesque pier and port areas give breathtaking views of the Kent Estuary and serve as a constant reminder of the town's historic past. The Pele Towers, which were built in the 15th century to protect against roving Scots, are located to the village's south. With gorgeous limestone sidewalks and lovely woodland walks through countryside teeming with unique plants, trees, and wildlife, the neighbourhood is a nature lover's heaven. Also, it is only one mile to the famed Leighton Moss rspb Area. There are guided walks across the Kent Estuary that showcase the area's surrounding beauty and the shore's complete splendour. The Lake District, the Lune Valley, the Yorkshire Dales, and the Forest of Bowland are all easily accessible for sightseeing.
