Overlooking the serene shores and breathtaking scenery of Coniston Water, this gorgeous stone property is the epitome of comfort and style. Escape blustery cold afternoons by lighting the fire and sitting back with a soothing brew and homemade cake or, on warm evenings, bask in the balmy sunshine of your private terrace. There’s a games barn for entertaining the troops, plus lavish bathrooms and five gorgeous bedrooms to sleep eight guests.

 

Take in the fantastic surroundings as you approach via the sweeping driveway, stepping inside to discover a haven characterised by high ceilings, character beams. The heart of the home is the elegant dining space that’s traditionally styled and features enough seating for your entire party. Follow the first wooden staircase down into the spacious lounge to cuddle up by the fire, through the doorway is the country cottage style . Weary from your adventures, you’ll find a magnificent master suite next to the dining room, which boasts an en-suite with a spa bath and separate shower. The remaining bedrooms are on the lower-ground floor, complete with a family bathroom. Head outside to discover the comfortable games room with its wood burner, pool table and drinks fridge, throwing open the doors to reach the private terrace for al fresco dining with a view.

 

Stroll down to the gently lapping shores of Coniston Water to take in the views, spotting the resident wildlife as you enjoy a gentle stroll around the lake. Literature lovers will find themselves stepping into the pages of Beatrix Potter’s charming books, exploring her former residence Hill Top House, 5 miles away, or venturing to the chocolate-box village of Grasmere, 10.5 miles away, once home to William Wordsworth.

Great location, spacious and well appointed property. However, some furniture in need of replacement/renovation and a generally deeper clean required.

Lovely property in good location. Amazing master bedroom! Garden space mostly on a slope. Plenty of room for running around, but not so good for ball games.

What a fantastic place to stay. The property itself-superb. The views-fantastic. The location-perfect. This was everything we wanted and more from our choice of holiday home, we had a mixed party of adults/children/couples/singles and the property was able to accommodate all of us. The property is well equipped with any utensils you might need for Read morea self catering dinner in, or the village of Coniston with many dinner choices is just a short walk away. Would definitely look to stay here again. Hide
