Property code: SZ018

Jump on the railway or head to the local Motor Museum (2.5 miles) for a family-friendly day out close to home. Next door to the museum, see if you and your fellow guests can escape the Cliffhanger Escape Rooms and work together as a team to put your skills and codebreaking to the test! Brilliantly located for exploring the Lake District, jump in the car and make the 8.5-mile trip to Coniston Water or head 4 miles to the bottom of Lake Windermere. Find a spot to indulge in some delicious meals before taking to the water and making a splash on a steamer. Pack your picnic and head to the coast for a fun-filled day by the sea. With views across the water to Morecombe Bay, Bardsea Beach is 9 miles from your door and a great place to spend time.

Flooding the home with natural light, the glass front door sits adjacent to the French doors adding a cool, airy ambience. Leave outerwear in the foyer before heading through to the open-plan living space which creates a welcoming heart of the home. Perfectly positioned around the TV and the wood burner, two sofas invite you to relax for the night. Follow the heated slate floor through to the dining area where you can tuck into delicious home-cooked meals. Cook up feasts in the sleek kitchen where cookbooks line the shelves and oak worktops add character and warmth. From the lounge area, climb a flight of stairs and find yourself in a second lounge space with a vaulted ceiling, bursts of colour, another wood burner and French doors which lead to a secret courtyard complete with a firepit. Also on the ground floor is a cloakroom with WC and washing machine. Climb the winding main staircase, you will find the three welcoming bedrooms, all overlooking the front garden. The double with en-suite shower room, twin, and single  bedrooms are all decorated in a cool style with neutral tones and bursts of character and colour. The family bathroom offers a bath with rainfall shower over.

Perfect for enjoying a morning coffee or a late-night tipple, the paved courtyard is a lovely tranquil spot. Reached by descending steps, take care of the different levels as you walk around and admire your surroundings. There is parking for two cars.

Really had a relaxing few days away and this cottage was very well equipped and felt very homely. Beautiful location and lots of lovely places to visit that were not too far away. Lovely welcome card and bottle of wine was very appreciated when we got there. Would recommend

This is a stylish rental: well positioned, spacious. We had an ongoing electrics issue. The friendly cleaner helped us work round it, but required phone calls in the dark and wet (no mobile reception), unpacking dirty dishwasher etc. Lovely snug but no wifi there so freeview only on that larger TV. Main TV is small, and sound is tinny. Low energy bRead moreulbs take an age to brighten. Weak heating despite adjustments, tho woodburners are lovely. And yes, the loudest creaky floors ever! Hide

We very much enjoyed our stay here, the house is a great size with plenty of room for the 4 of us who stayed there. Loved the extra room upstairs although the signal for the TV etc was not great up there. Lovely location - very easy reach to the bus stop - and to Haverthwaite station (a favourite place for us!). :-)

Absolutely loved our week here! The cottage was clean and very spacious for the four of us and a dog. The location is ideal for exploring the south lakes and Windermere as we did every day. As mentioned in other reviews the upper floor does creak an awful lot but nothing you can't live with. Plenty of walks near by and a local with good food withinRead more walking distance. Already looking to book again for next year. Loved it and can't wait to return. Hide
