Lying in the lea of Cartmel Fell, looking out to the great limestone scar of Whitbarrow, this spectacular property promises an unforgettable escape to guests. Sleeping eight over four stunning bedrooms, this characterful property is an opportunity to relax and unwind in truly luxurious surroundings. Vaulted ceilings, superb polished floors and sympathetic decor make this holiday home a special one. Plus, there are beautiful walking trails on the doorstep that lead you to tranquil settings, although there are 9 acres of grounds to explore with herbaceous borders and formal lawns first. The property, which is one of three properties that used to make up a grand country house, is even more breathtaking in real life. The ground floor opens up into an impressive vaulted space. Step back in time in the kitchen area that has a farmhouse feel with wooden beams, tasteful furnishings and country-style decor throughout. The comfortable sofas and soft lighting in the lounge area make it perfect to retire to after a hearty meal, but French doors also flood lots of light in during the day. The snug and garden room have peaceful decor and stunning views so you can find a spot to hide away in no matter how many guests there are. Head out straight from the property to Simpson Ground Tarn (1.5 miles) which is perfect for an easy waterside stroll. The foot of Lake Windermere is just 7 miles away and you’ll find Fell Foot Park there which is ideal for family picnics, and there’s even an educational tree trail to follow. The World of Beatrix Potter (9 miles) will delight fans both young and old, while more adventurous guests will love the treetop challenge at Go Ape Grizedale (14 miles). And if you don’t fancy heights, take walks around the surrounding trails.
