Westwood

About this property

Westwood is an 18th century Lakeland property that benefits from generously sized rooms, all finished to exacting standards. Found at the foot of Orrest Head, just half a mile from Windermere and also close to Troutbeck, famed for its breathtaking scenery as well as first class country pubs, Westwood sleeps 8 and so is ideal for families or groups of friends.

Expect comfort and style from the modern furnishings along with period features such as wooden beams. Cook up a storm in the large and well equipped kitchen, complete with farmhouse dining table or simply relax in front of the wood burning stove that is located in the plush living room. The four bedrooms are beautifully presented and there are three bathrooms for the convenience of the property’s guests, whilst outside the walled patio is perfect for sitting out enjoying the fresh air.

The small Lakeland village of Troutbeck can be found between its more famous neighbours Windermere and Ambleside, close by the Kirkstone Pass. A mixture of houses, cottages and farms, the village is scattered along a narrow lane bordered by a drystone wall. Many of these buildings date back to the 17th Century with features such as mullioned windows and heavy cylindrical chimneys and the northern end boasts its own 17th century inn. Close by, the bustling towns of Windermere and Ambleside are popular with visitors, providing a range of amenities to suit all tastes. Lake Windermere offers boat trips, including the lakeside ferry to the Lakeside Aquarium and Grizedale Forest Park. The ‘Windermere Steamboat Museum’ displays a fascinating collection of boats whilst children will enjoy the ‘World of Beatrix Potter’ in Bowness, where technology brings her characters to life. Within easy reach of destinations such as Coniston Water, Kendal, Keswick and the Lakeland Mountains, Troutbeck is ideally situated for exploring all that the region has to offer.
