Envisage a spectacular staycation at the heart of the Lake District National Park, swapping the daily grind for mountain views, glacial waters and a wonderful selection of bustling lakeside towns and sleepy villages. Sleeping four guests across two gorgeous bedrooms, this sleek and stylish apartment is a contemporary haven within easy reach of Bowness-on-Windermere. Wake up to special breakfasts on your private patio, sipping a soothing brew as you schedule the day’s activities, or perhaps venturing into town to enjoy a slap-up breakfast at a welcoming eatery.

 

Inside, the marvellous contemporary decor and exquisite furniture denote a hint of luxury, providing a wonderful setting for spending quality time together. Transform local produce into celebrity-style feasts in the elegant kitchen/diner, and in the summer months, embrace al fresco dining in the spacious garden. On chilly evenings, the cosy lounge is the perfect sanctuary to sample fine wine and a cheeseboard, reclining on the sofas to chat, play board games or watch TV in comfort. Follow the stairs down to the lower ground floor to discover your sleeping quarters, both of which boast fabulous en-suite facilities for the ultimate treat. One double bedroom, the other with king sized bed (which can be made into twin, must be stated at the time of booking) There is roadside parking subject to availability, and the nearest shop, pub and restaurant is less than 0.5 miles away.

 

Hop onboard a steamboat and enjoy a leisurely cruise on Lake Windermere, taking in the breathtaking scenery all around you. There are opportunities to kayak, paddleboard and canoe from Bowness-on-Windermere, 0.5 miles away, or perhaps you would prefer to stay on dry land and explore the independent shops and eateries. Golfers are well catered for at the popular golf club, 2.5 miles away, and keen fishermen will be spoilt for choice of where to cast their line as there are opportunities for free and permit fishing depending on the location.

A lovely comfortable homely cottage. Ample space and the kitchen was very well equipped. Had a Tesco home delivery on arrival and was home from home. The area is very quiet and close to all amenities and Windermere . We had a wonderful week and will most certainly be returning.

The holiday property is clean & modern and in a good location for both Windermere & Bowness. A little welcome pack Garden is hard landscaped & enclosed, so perfect if you have dogs. The only drawback, Sainsbury's couldn't find property (didn't call us), so failed to deliver order :-(

Lower Thornbarrow was nice enough the garden is an added bonus, for us the place did not feel homely it felt like a rental. Just little touches missing but perhaps we felt like this because we had just stayed at a beautiful property in Keswick the week before and prefer that area. The location was not for us a little far out and frankly Windermere Read moreand Bowness are disappointing. Parking is good with no issues. This property was just not for us, sadly but can see why others do. Hide
