This stylish ground-floor apartment, surrounded by mountain views and miles of scenic walks, is perfect for families looking for an idyllic retreat for an active holiday together. The village of Hawkshead is 1.5 miles away and is home to the Beatrix Potter Gallery, shops and a choice of pubs. You can hike up to Latterbarrow or take an easy route to Tarn Hows. If you prefer two wheels, there are plenty of mountain biking routes for all abilities.

This attractive apartment, redecorated in 2022, has a private hallway leading to the light and spacious open-plan lounge/diner, which enjoys far-reaching mountain views. There is an electric fire and Smart TV, surrounded by a sofa and two armchairs, perfect for a family night. The dining area offers impressive views through the bay window out across the water; while the kitchen has everything to cook up a storm for some family favourites. There are three bedrooms, each with an en-suite: one double, one twin, and one single. Outside, explore the estate grounds with 40 acres of shared gardens and woodland, to which you have complete access. Younger children will enjoy the play area, with swings, a climbing frame, outdoor table tennis tables, and pitch and putt golf.

There is plenty to enjoy in the heart of the Lake District; Lake Windermere and Coniston Water are within 6 miles, where you can relax on a boat trip with breathtaking views or try your hand at a range of water sports, including paddleboarding, canoeing and kayaking. There are numerous hiking trails, or you can potter along the lake shores. For something a little different, head 10 miles to Ulverston and enjoy a ride on the Lakeside and Haverthwaite steam railway.
