This former coach house is ideally located just under a mile from Windermere in the small hamlet of The Common. It’s a brilliant home to make your own with a small group of friends or immediate family. The Common is a quiet collection of houses, but everything guests need in terms of amenities is available in Windermere – there are plenty of pubs, restaurants and cafes there too. Of course, one big draw to the area is the stunning Lake Windermere, offering the most picturesque of backdrops for a guest’s holiday.

To enter the property, go through the front door into a small conservatory with comfortable seating. It's a great area for a relaxing read and an ideal place to get those muddy boots off after a day on the nearby fells. On the ground floor, there are two charming bedrooms. The first, a king-size, is a light room with an en-suite shower room. The airy second bedroom has two single beds and is delightfully furnished. Also on this floor, there’s the family bathroom with a bath and overhead shower. Upstairs is the living room situated so guests can enjoy those long-reaching views towards the fells – also shown on the picture above the wood burner. With dual-aspect windows and views, this is a light-flooded comfortable living area with lovely, comfortable seating set in front of the wood burner – the perfect place for relaxing on chilly evenings after a day's activities. This room is open-plan to enjoy dining and is perfect for meals together after exploring the Lake District National Park. Just off the living area is the kitchen, which has everything guests need for their stay.

Also on the first floor, there’s a delightful balcony space with a table and chairs, perfect for a morning coffee or evening beverage. Guests may even be lucky enough to catch a glimpse of a deer in the adjoining field.

Lovely cottage in a quiet little hamlet about 25 minutes walk from Windermere railway station and bus terminus (we came up on the train). Comfortable and very well equipped. Hope to return soon!

The cottage is very well-equipped and very welcoming. It's in a quiet location and there is a lovely walk to Orrest head that you can do easily from the cottage. We had an issue on arrival which was dealt with swiftly by the owner and Original Cottages who were both very responsive.

Spring Cottage is a lovely holiday home. The facilities are first rate and its close enough to local shops. Its in a beautiful, quiet, location with views of fells. The walks are spectacular, and immediate. Once we parked, we didnt use the car. It was ideal for a quiet, relaxing break.
