Description

Beautiful 17th century country cottage, situated close to the stunning Tarn Hows, which offers accessible lakeside walks in a picturesque location.

This cottage enjoys a wonderfully quiet location, situated a mile away from the village of Hawkshead to the south and equal distance to the popular country pub to the north. 2.5 miles from the property, on the shore of Lake Windermere, visitors will find the majestic mock Gothic Wray Castle, which is a popular stop for the pleasure boats which run up and down Windermere, taking visitors to local attractions and to the towns of Ambleside and Bowness. For those who would like to try something more challenging than the local scenic walks, the mountain ranges are only a short drive away.

On entering this property, guests come to a spacious hall, to either side of which doors lead through to two spacious rooms. To the right-hand side, is the tasteful and comfortable lounge, which has a lovely relaxing atmosphere, with its exposed beams, wood burner, comfortable sofas, dual aspect windows, TV, and DVD. Crossing back across the hall, the property’s kitchen/diner is a large and light-filled room, with farmhouse style dining table seating six, an electric AGA, conventional oven and hob, microwave, American-style fridge/freezer, and dishwasher. Just next to the kitchen is a handy shower room, with WC, and this is where guests will also find the washing machine and tumble dryer. To the rear of the property, a large barn-conversion extension is the home to a family room, which is set up as a games room, with table football, TV/DVD, as well as a cosy multi-fuel stove. This room makes a great den for teenagers in the evening. Stairs from the hallway lead to the first-floor accommodation: three bedrooms and a bathroom. The first bedroom is a king-size room with en-suite, whilst there is also a double room and a twin, all of which are tastefully decorated and feature the original exposed beams. The bathroom has a bath and WC.

Outside, there is a pretty flower-filled seating area to the front of the property and a separate good-sized lawn enclosed by a fence and wall, with fantastic views over the surrounding countryside, a great place to relax or to play games. There is ample off-road parking for four cars.

Dogs are charged at £20 each per full or part week.
