Situated on the first floor offering glorious views of the gardens and beyond, this superb apartment is the perfect bolthole for two. Located in Spark Bridge, a quiet former mill village on the River Crake, you’re surrounded by charming dry-stone walls, rolling hills and resident farm animals. To the north, the Furness Fells encompass the mighty Grizedale Forest (11 miles) with numerous trails and forest art, along with the Coniston mountain range where the magnificent Old Man overshadows the village at the head of Coniston Water. With so much on the doorstep, this is the ideal apartment for couples looking for the ultimate Lake District holiday.
Head up the impressive staircase from the shared entrance to the front door of this charming property. A beautiful light-filled open-plan living area awaits you, where you can curl up on the window seat and gaze out towards the magnificent shared gardens. Glossy cabinets and sleek appliances in the kitchen make it a pleasure to cook up a storm for your beau; eat at the dining table and chat about tomorrow’s plans over a glass of wine. When it’s time for bed, slip between the sumptuous sheets in the bedroom and wake up refreshed among soft white and grey tones.
The apartment is surrounded by spectacular scenery in every direction and there’s no reason to get bored here. Soak in the atmosphere on a restored Victorian steamer on nearby Coniston Water (8 miles) or get a more active view of the lake by hiring a paddleboard or kayak from Coniston Boating Centre (10.5 miles). Take long romantic walks along Grange-over-Sands promenade (13.5 miles) or watch breathtaking sunsets over Morecambe Bay from Arnside Beach (24 miles). Over the fell, the pretty village of Cartmel (11 miles) is waiting for you to discover its cobbled streets and renowned food scene.
