Outside, Tent Lodge Cottage enjoys its own sunny, small walled garden, a great spot for alfresco dining or a refreshing drink. Beyond the garden idyllic Coniston Water will tempt you through the grounds and down to the estate’s private lake shore area which is shared with other properties on the estate - this is the place for picnics, paddling and fishing for tiddlers and if you want to bring your own sailing boat, there are jetties to tie up to.
