Overview
Property code: LCC50

Swap your hectic schedule for spectacular scenery, fireside snoozes and evenings stargazing from the comfort of your own exclusive hot tub. This superb property is set amongst rural splendour within 1.5 miles of Coniston village, providing a luxurious retreat for couples keen to unwind and reconnect with nature. Fill your itinerary with a variety of outdoor adventures and trips to bustling Lakeside towns and chocolate-box villages.

Beneath the stone exterior is a sleek and stylish haven boasting sumptuous furniture and contemporary decor, offering a cosy base for a romantic staycation with the one you love. Return from your excursions with enough local produce to prepare a feast, best enjoyed by candlelight at the breakfast bar. Light the wood burner and pop open the bubbly, snuggling up on the comfortable sofas to watch your favourite film. Natural light pours through the French windows, revealing the shingled seating area, BBQ and decadent hot tub. A sweeping stretch of lawn provides a serene setting for a picnic, or perhaps just a quiet place to reflect. At bedtime, the fabulous bedroom is a treat for weary travellers, and completing the property is a delightful bathroom featuring a shower over the bath for long soaks.

Take each day at your own pace, scaling the imposing heights of the iconic ‘Old Man of Coniston’, 2.5 miles away, or taking a quiet stroll around Coniston Water. The village itself boasts independent shops, eateries and a fantastic pub which has its own on-site brewery. Further afield, the former residence of Beatrix Potter is an enchanting destination for afternoon amusement, 5 miles away, close to the tranquil shores of Esthwaite Water.

This is a lovely cottage, its set near lake coniston which is gorgeous. The cottage is well equipped and is really comfortable. However on the website it looks really remote- its not, there are several other properties next to it and behind it. The hot tub is amazing, especially after spending hours paddle boarding on the lake.

Adventure, memories and awe-inspiring natural beauty await you in the rugged, wild and unique Cumbrian Lake District where beautiful expanses of water merge with magical forests against a backdrop of dramatic mountains and fells.

This ancient land has been sculpted by time and nature and is the newest UNESCO World Heritage Site and the first UK National Park to be awarded this outstanding accolade. Poets, writers and artists throughout the ages have been instinctively drawn here; William Wordsworth, Beatrix Potter and John Ruskin, to name a few. The attractions and the diverse landscape will not fail to charm the young and the young at heart, whether that be thrill-seeking activities you seek, pure and cathartic inspiration or simply just some relaxation, you will find it here.

Cycling, walking, canoeing, white-water rafting, flying, parachuting and ballooning are just some of the offerings for any level of adrenalin junky. Experience the glory of nature in the wild or in a setting such as the Predator Experience where you can walk with wolves and learn about the importance of conservation. For a complete day of family, enjoy treetop capers at Go-Ape in the Grizedale Forest.

Vibrant towns and villages are there to be discovered, be it by land or water. You can step back in time and enjoy a steamboat cruise on a lake or leisurely unearth the dynamic scene of contemporary art, culture and some of the best dining in the UK by foot, bus or car.

The National Park is an area of breath-taking beauty that will leave you spoilt for choice, refuelled and inspired. So much so that you’ll want to come back time and time again.
