Peony Cottage

About this property

Newby Bridge 1.5 miles. If you're looking for an idyllic romantic getaway to the Lake District National Park, look no further than Peony Cottage, a delightsome, semi-detached cottage resting in Lakeside near Newby Bridge. It's ideal for couples who want to enjoy some quality time together and has a private driveway with ample parking so you can arrive and get unpacked without any stress. Upon entering the property, you'll be happy to find a compact but well-equipped kitchenette offering all you need to rustle up easy meals. When a tasty dinner for two has been made, enjoy eating together in the tastefully furnished living dining room at the oak dining table as you discuss the day's events. After dinner, curl up together on the leather sofa and switch on the Smart TV to enjoy your favourite show or movie; switch on the gas fire, too, and fill the space with a warm glow. When the day comes to an end, progress to the king-size bedroom, a beautifully decorated space which is bathed in light by Velux windows and offers ample storage for your things. The bathroom is next door and is well stocked with locally made products and fresh white towels and robes, ideal for a freshening up before a day packed with fun out in the Lakes. The property opens out to an enclosed patio, the perfect space for unwinding at the end of the day, with a hot tub offering soothing dips and a bistro table making for a lovely spot for alfresco dining. Be sure to spend some time in Lakeside, a scenic village hosting some great things to do, including touring the Lakes Aquarium, being pampered at the Lakeside Hotel & Spa, and boarding the Lakeside & Haverthwaite Railway. Newby Bridge has 2 popular hotels for dining and essential supplies can be found at the supermarket at the service station; the National Trust's scenic point of Fell Foot is near the hamlet, offering facilities for swimming and boating. Why not board the ferry from Lakeside to Bowness-on-Windermere, where the delights of Brant Fell, Windermere Golf Club and Bowness Marina await? Far Sawrey and Hawkshead rest moments' away from the cottage, whilst the Park itself offers even more amazing sights further away, from picturesque towns to glorious peaks; you'll rarely be bored. For a romantic break to remember, choose Peony Cottage.

Newby Bridge, a rural village on the banks of the River Leven, is named after a five-arched stone bridge erected in 1651. Between Haverthwaite and Newby Bridge, the famed Furness Railway, one of Britain's oldest functioning standard gauge steam railways, operates. Visit the Lakeside Hotels for spectacular views of Windermere and the surrounding fells, or visit the Aquarium of the Lakes to learn about the history of the Lakes via organically designed habitats.
