Set on the edge of the village and just a few minutes walk from the famous Swan Inn, Lanterns At Grasmere, is a beautifully presented contemporary bungalow. The owners have taken pride to create a high quality property that offers fantastic accommodation in a first class location ideal for family or friends whatever the time of year.All laid out on the ground floor, this bright & airy contemporary home is on the edge of the village, 5 minutes walk from the famous Swan Inn for a cosy pint and food. The Michelin starred Forest Side is probably 10 minutes walk away if you can book a table! Grasmere itself has many little bistros and pubs, and interesting shops/galleries to wander around as well as stunning walks all around and up to Loughrigg Fell. “The fairest spot and earth” was how William Wordsworth described Grasmere 200 years ago and today this pretty village, remains one of the most delightful parts of the Lake District. 'Lanterns' is a great location and a comfortable contemporary place to stay.
Situated in the heart of the Lake District National Park is the lovely village of Grasmere, probably best known as the home of William Wordsworth, a place he once described as "The most loveliest spot that man hath found". Any visit to Grasmere needs to include The Grasmere Gingerbread shop, where the Wilson family have been making gingerbread for over 60 years. Also in the village are a number of shops, pubs, a church which dates back to the 13th century and Grasmere Lake, plus Grasmere Sports takes place every August, where you can watch participants compete in a variety of sports, including Cumberland Wrestling. Just five miles away is the town of Ambleside and Lake Winderemere where you will find shops, pubs, restaurants and the 17th century Bridge House, which is one of the most photographed buildings in the Lake District. Cruises, boat trips and watersports can all be enjoyed on Lake Windermere and the towns of Windermere and Keswick are also within driving distance. Grasmere is a wonderful base for your Lake District retreat.

This is the 4th time staying and it is like returning home! Very well equipped and comfortable bungalow. Excellent location with walks from the door and easy access to Grasmere village.
Jayne
Lovely house and great location. The welcome bottle of wine was much appreciated. We have been coming to The Lakes for years and have always loved Grasmere. The only disappointment is we tried to book again for 2024 and the house is full.
