1.5 miles from Windermere, this house sits within a private estate and provides a superb base for families or friends keen to discover the very best of the Lake District National Park. 2 miles away, Lake Windermere invites days spent cruising between piers, paddling out by kayak or strolling along its scenic shoreline. Nearby Bowness-on-Windermere (2.5 miles) brings a lively lakeside setting, with independent shops, welcoming cafes and waterside dining. For far-reaching views without a strenuous climb, Orrest Head (2 miles) is one of the area's most accessible viewpoints. If you're in the mood for a more challenging walk, Wansfell Pike (5 miles) rewards the effort with sweeping panoramas across the central fells. Venture a little further to explore the charming streets and acclaimed eateries of Ambleside (6 miles), or continue to Grasmere (10 miles), celebrated for its literary connections and Lakeland scenery. Enter from the picturesque, cobbled courtyard and into a light-filled open-plan living space designed with comfort in mind. At the heart of the home is a thoughtfully appointed kitchen, fitted with high-end appliances that make cooking a pleasure rather than a chore. The adjoining dining area sets the scene for long, sociable suppers, while the lounge tempts you to sink into deep-cushioned corner sofas, gather around the electric fire, and settle in with a film on the smart TV after a day out exploring. Upstairs on the second floor, the master suite is a serene retreat, and the en-suite bathroom includes a freestanding roll-top bath and a separate shower – a luxurious setting for a long soak at the end of the day. The super-king bed is dressed in sumptuous linens, with plush dressing gowns and locally sourced toiletries adding thoughtful finishing touches. On the ground floor, two king-size bedrooms share a stylish shower room. Outside, there's a courtyard garden with outdoor seating for al fresco dining or your morning coffee. A practical washing area completes the property – particularly useful after muddy walks or lakeside adventures. Parking for three cars ensures easy arrivals and departures. The house forms part of a wider estate that includes five one-bedroom barn cottages, two three-bedroom homes and a seven-bedroom Victorian house, all available individually or in combination.
