The apartment is set in a grand country home, in an elevated position overlooking Esthwaite Water. You’ll have a fantastic choice of local walks to explore, including through the 40 acres of shared gardens and woodlands. The pretty market town of Hawkshead, with its quaint cottages and cosy inns, is just 1 mile away. Lake District highlights, including Windermere and Coniston Water, are within 5 miles of the property. Sleeping five guests, the apartment is perfect for family getaways or holidays with friends. The property has an open-plan layout which lends itself to entertaining, as well as a spectacular children’s play area including swings, climbing frame, and table tennis. Entering the elegant property, you’ll be greeted with a private hallway leading to the bright and airy lounge/diner. The area is decorated in neutral tones, with exposed woodwork bringing warmth and character. Relax on the comfortable sofa to watch the Smart TV or curl up in an armchair and admire the far-reaching mountain views. Come together around the large table for evenings of great food and laughter, followed by a relaxing stroll around the grounds to watch the sun go down. The three bedrooms have been tastefully decorated and comprise a king-size, double, and single. Outside, enjoy al fresco dining overlooking the lake, whilst the kids burn off steam in the impressive play area. You’ll find plenty to see and do in the immediate area, meaning you can experience a car-free holiday if you wish. Wander down to the shores of the lake, where you can share a picnic with your fellow guests or make the most of the complimentary rowing boats to get out on the water.
