This unique property near the hamlet of Watermillock, Ullswater, was once the hunting lodge for the Duke of Norfolk. Its elevated site provides exceptional views of Lake Ullswater and the surrounding fells. The spacious accommodation is immaculately presented featuring a 30 foot sheltered balcony.

Wreay Mansions (once a hunting lodge where the Duke of Norfolk would retreat), situated in the hamlet of Watermillock, was no doubt chosen for its prime elevated site.

This unique property provides exceptional views of Lake Ullswater and the surrounding scenic fells, whatever the season. Immaculately presented, the accommodation offers luxurious, spacious living, carefully designed to take full advantage of the fabulous vistas. The 30 foot long sheltered balcony provides the ultimate place to relax and enjoy the great outdoors of the English Lakes.

There are numerous renowned restaurants and gastro pubs nearby in addition to a large choice of local farm shops, market town butchers, bakers and purveyors of Lakeland produce including the noted Cumberland sausage. This very popular tranquil retreat offers the perfect location for a family holiday. The views have to be seen to be believed, pictures cannot capture the true panorama. The only way to experience it, is to see it for yourself!

    The house was lovely if a bit old fashioned, the view was great and we had lovely weather so veranda was a real treat

    The property was of good size and well appointed. Situated in a great location with fantastic views. The beds were very comfortable. The bathroom was large with nice appliances but needed redecorating. Unfortunately opening the bathroom window let in an unpleasant smell from the oil tank. There were no other windows in the bedroom to open. Overall a very good holiday
