About this property

Troutbeck Bridge 1 mile. Located upon a private estate of exclusive properties in Ecclerigg near Troutbeck Bridge, Cumbria, is Deer Thwaite, a delightful three-bedroom cottage. Set within the Lake District National Park, and surrounded by popular attractions and amenities, including Lake Windermere, the cottage welcomes six guests, providing a home-from-home whilst enjoying a self-catered break. Park up in one of three private spaces before entering the inviting sitting room, complete with plush seating, a Smart TV for entertainment, and an electric log effect fire, perfect to light after a day outdoors. Venture into the kitchen/diner and be welcomed by a range of state-of-the-art appliances where you can rustle up delicious meals, possible to enjoy in the kitchen, in the formal dining room or in the rear garden for an alfresco affair. As the sky grows darker, return indoors to complete your nightly routine in the bathroom, before selecting from three well-presented bedrooms, including a king-size with en-suite, a further king-size, and a double with TV; all bedrooms feature ample storage and plush furnishings to help you feel at home. Come morning, grab your walking boots, and plan your itinerary, starting off with a visit to Brockhole on Windermere - The Lake District Visitor Centre, offering a range of activities, such as archery and treetop treks, aboard the water and enjoy a Windermere Lake Cruise, or visit Holehird Gardens and its pretty landscape. Next stop, head to Windermere, where you can enjoy a competitive afternoon at Windermere Golf Club, experience The World of Beatrix Potter Attraction, learn about the area's heritage at Windermere Jetty Museum - Stories of boats and steam, or discover Windermere Outdoor Adventure Centre and try your hand at sailing or kayaking across the lake. Travelling north, venture into Ambleside with the chance to explore the stunning surroundings of Stock Ghyll Force, hike across Borrans Park, visit Stagshaw Gardens, enjoy a tour of Rydal Cave, or head to Wordsworth Grasmere, the former home of renowned poet, Williams Wordsworth. Experience all of this at Deer Thwaite.

The little community of Troutbeck Bridge is located in the Lake District National Park, near to the renowned Kirkstone Pass, between the well-known towns of Windermere and Ambleside. This peaceful community, made up of a few Lakeland cottages, has a flourishing and well-liked neighbourhood tavern that serves good meals and real ales. The thriving towns of Windermere and Ambleside, which offer a variety of services like stores, pubs, and cafes, are nearby. Children will appreciate the Beatrix Potter World in neighbouring Bowness, where technology brings her characters to life. Lake Windermere offers a variety of lakeside activities, including visits to the famed Grizedale Forest Park and the world-famous Aquarium. Troutbeck Bridge is a great place to start exploring the area because it's close to places like Coniston Water, Kendal, Keswick, and the Lakeland Mountains.

    A little of the gloss taken off by some technical issues with the TV and the dishwasher stopping working, but luckily the cottage was very well equipped and had plenty of games too. New bathrooms excellent!

  • Jonathan

    The en suite shower hose is leaking so badly hardly any water comes out the shower head, the radiator in the bedroom with velux windows doesn’t work and the dishwasher has a broken spring on the flap where the tablet goes so it doesn’t spring open and the tablet gets trapped, we worked around this by just putting the tablet on the top shelf. Despite these minor issues we will of course be back again next year. Jon, Vicky & Jacob

    Central heating only worked for 24 hours in what was a cold house. Car parking was a nightmare. Would never consider returning. Also although we complied I think it is unfair to insist the guests dispose of their rubbish in the skips provided. Isn't that what cleaners are for. Sykes customer services were hopeless.
