Tucked away on The Heaning Estate, beside Lake Windermere, this beautifully updated one-bedroom bolthole is a brilliant pick for a couple looking to spend quality time outdoors or unwind at the property. Step outside and you have around 5 acres of cared-for grounds to enjoy, with pockets of meadow and a few perfect picnic spots for long, lazy brunches in the sunshine. Windermere is 1 mile away, so you can hop on the ferry and enjoy the views while you cruise, or simply stroll the shoreline with an ice cream in hand. Pack your hiking boots and ascend to the summits of the nearby Helvellyn (16 miles), Seat Sandal (12 miles) and Wansfell Pike (5.5 miles). The popular market town of Ambleside is 6 miles away and has plenty on offer, including the iconic Bridge House, two cinemas and plenty of eateries to choose from.
One of five traditional barn cottages redeveloped for the discerning visitor, this property has been thoughtfully designed to provide exquisite accommodation for a couple. The emphasis here is very much on natural products, tactile fabrics and a relaxing vibe to ensure you make the most of your precious time away together. The ground-floor open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner is a multi-functional space. A sumptuous sofa sits in front of an electric wood burner, whilst the generous and well fitted kitchen with dining table and feature oak beam has everything you’ll need for either a weekend or longer stay. Finishing the ground floor is the stylish wet room with a shower. Walk up the stairs to the first floor, the generous, natural themed king size bedroom features exposed beams and has a WC.
The enclosed courtyard garden is accessed via the French doors in the open-plan living space. Pull on your provided dressing gown and slippers, make your cappuccino from the coffee machine and enjoy sipping it outside while you plan your day’s adventures. There is private parking for one car.
The estate comprises five one-bedroomed barn cottages, five three-bedroomed homes, and a seven-bedroomed Victorian house, which can be booked individually, together, or in any combination to suit your requirements.
