About this property

An excellent detached house with ample parking, superbly located on the outskirts of the bustling lakeside village of Bowness-on-Windermere, just a short walk from the shores of Lake Windermere and the village centre in the beautiful Lake District National Park. Offering families and friends an excellent base to explore this stunning part of England, this superb Windermere cottage benefits from upside down accommodation to make the most of the views, with the attractive living accommodation on the first floor. This Windermere cottage offers four ground floor bedrooms all with en-suite facilities. The spacious first floor has a large sitting room and an attractive separate dining area, with soft sofas to relax in at the end of the day. Outside this Bowness-on-Windermere cottage is a small patio area, plus it has the added benefit of ample parking available. The superb location of this charming Windermere cottage makes it perfect as a convenient base with easy access to the amenities in both Bowness-on-Windermere or Windermere village itself, including excellent restaurants available in both. Bowness-on-Windermere has a beautiful lakeside front where you can enjoy a cruise up the lake to ever-popular Ambleside, or down to Lakeside to explore the Aquarium of the Lake or embark on the Haverthwaite & Lakeside Steam railway. With so much to do in the area and such welcoming accommodation to return to, this perfect Windermere cottage is superb at any time of the year.

The twin towns of Bowness and Windermere both provide a range of amenities, shops and restaurants, plus boat trips are available from Bowness to Ambleside, the Lakeside Aquarium and Beatrix Potter's ‘Hill Top House' at Sawrey. Orrest Head, where Alfred Wainwright was inspired to write his series of iconic guidebooks, is on the edge of the town, plus Grizedale Forest Park is nearby and there are many National Trust properties in the area.

  • Rebecca

    Easy to reach other places by car, but so many places on the door step too! Minutes from the lake, seconds from pubs, shops etc. Perfect for chilled evenings in too!

  • Audrey

    Kitchen well equipped with crockery, pans etc. Bedrooms had comfortable bed with good quality bedding and en-suite was added bonus for own privacy. Owner left a beautiful hamper which was a lovely extra touch. Would return to property in warmer weather and recommend to family and friends. Thanks again for an enjoyable holiday Audrey and family.

  • George

    All the facilities and equipment that we needed were there. It is an ideal location and the private parking is a great bonus, we did not use our cars all week. The owner was very helpful and we even managed to get into the property earlier which was great. I would certainly recommend this cottage and will return again. Thanks for everything Georgie
