Foxglove Cottage lies in Bowness, one of the Lake Districts most popular villages, with its many shops, inns, cafes and restaurants all marching down the hill, ending at the sweeping bay with its boats and steamers overlooking Lake Windermere. For those couples who enjoy exploring the landscape by day and stepping out to wine and dine in the evening, then Foxglove Cottage will be a perfect choice.

Bowness village has everything for the perfect lakeland holiday. That it lies on the shore of Windermere adds a particular individual charm, offering steam boat trips and water activity to a simple romantic evening promenade as the sun sets over mirror glass water.

By day there are shops to explore and attractions to visit, by evening you can take in a movie or play and dine in one of the many excellent restaurants such as the Port Hole or Miller How.

Whatever your pleasure, Bowness has something for all and is the perfect base to set out from to explore all the wonders of the national park, yet with plenty to do and entertain on your doorstep.

Foxglove Cottage

The end property of three traditional lakeland cottages, Foxglove Cottage lies a short walk from Bowness Bay, discreetly tucked behind tall hedges.

Approached by a shared drive, you have private gardens to the rear.

From the side entrance you step into the kitchen - dining area, well equipped making it easy to whip up light lunches and tasty dinners.

A single step leads up to the sitting room area. With its oak beams, comfy sofa and arm chairs, along with a log burning stove, the combination makes for a very pleasant space to relax.

A narrow stairway winds up to the top floor, passing the bathroom with bath and overhead shower. There are two bedrooms, one the master double, with en-suite whirlpool bath and overhead shower, the second a pretty twin bedroom.

At the rear of the cottage is the sunny, private garden, with shrubs and terrace where you can barbecue and enjoy a pre dinner aperitif.

All in all, I think this is a perfect little retreat for either couples or a small family, where you can explore lakeland, step out to wine and dine come evening and return to a cosy relaxing home.
