3 Bed in Windermere (oc-f31899)

Perched on a peaceful, private hillside lane, 3 miles from the lively heart of Bowness-on-Windermere, this idyllic home offers a perfect blend of seclusion and convenience. Wake up to mesmerising lake views, then set out to explore – whether it’s a gentle lakeside stroll, fell climb, a scenic cruise on a Windermere steamer, or an adventurous kayak trip ( from Fell Foot Park or Bowness). The cottage is an ideal base for discovering the Lake District’s gems, with Ambleside (9.5 miles), Windermere (5.5 miles), and Grasmere (14 miles) all within easy reach. Step into the magical World of Beatrix Potter (4 miles), or seek thrills at Brockholes Activity Centre (7 miles), home to zip-lining, treetop trampolines, and more. For breathtaking vistas, a short drive leads to Orrest Head (5.5 miles) in Windermere, offering some of the region’s most stunning panoramas.


Inside, the cottage welcomes you at the front with a spacious glass fronted ‘serenity room’, designed for admiring the stunning views over the lake, the fells beyond and the sunsets. The cosy family lounge behind the serenity room features a log burner and ample seating, while the well-equipped kitchen ensures hearty meals after a day on the fells. The kitchen has a utility room with a washer/dryer and a sink. The dining room adjacent to the kitchen, utility area, and cloakroom completes the ground floor. Up a small set of stairs, just off the lounge is the first of the three bedrooms, a delightful king-size. Heading up to the first floor you can find the other two bedrooms, a super-king boasting spectacular views towards the lake and another king-size. Across the hall is a cosy study, again with breathtaking views, and a double sofa-bed for extra guests. The family bathroom completes the property, with a bath and separate walk-in shower.


Outside, the property continues to truly shine – wander through the landscaped rock gardens, relax in the summer room by the duck pond, or dine alfresco on the terrace, taking in the vista as the sun dips behind the fells beyond the lake. The enclosed garden borders ancient woodland, where wildlife including deer, badgers, pheasants, grouse and wild ducks, amongst other wild birds, visit the property’s gardens and roam freely.

Please note: The property is accessed via a steep drive and has multiple steps, so it is not suited for those with limited mobility.
