Cottage in Cumbria

About this property

This property is situated in the small Lake District village of Bouth, just 4.5 miles from the southern shore of Lake Windermere and 5.5 miles from Coniston Water, two of the region s best known and best loved lakes, offering everything from leisurely cruises to thrilling watersports. There are also many scenic walks to be had around the edge of the lakes, as well as more challenging hikes and climbs in the fells and mountains. Those with an interest in culture and history are well catered for in the area too, with Beatrix Potter s home, Hill Top, being just one of numerous National Trust properties located within easy reach of the property. Situated at the end of a small row of 17th century cottages, this property offers a comfortable place to stay for up to four guests. There is a step up to the front door which opens directly into the kitchen/diner, an attractive country style room equipped with an oven, hob microwave, and fridge/freezer, as well as a dining table. The washing machine and tumble dryer, meanwhile, are kept in the garden room. A doorway and two small steps down from the kitchen leads into the hallway, which in turn leads on to the lounge, a wonderfully cosy room with its beamed ceiling and warming open fire around which are clustered a selection of inviting chairs and a sofa, perfect for curling up with a good book, or catching up with a favourite programme on the Smart TV or DVD. Returning back to the hallway, guests will pass a small writing desk on the way up the stairs to the bedrooms on the first floor. The first of these is a cosy king size room with lovely meadow views, whilst the second is a pretty twin room with 2 6 beds. The bathroom, meanwhile, can be found on the ground floor of the cottage, a small step up in to the bathroom where there is a lovely well appointed shower over bath and WC. Outside is the gravelled courtyard this leads to the sunny, spacious, grassed garden, with meadow views and perfect for a barbecue. The Garden Room is a delight which has a fantastic log burner in it, it has been beautifully crafted with double doors that open out to the garden, this relaxing space has been attractively finished in a sleek contemporary style, and can even be used in the winter thanks to the wood burner, making this a fantastic year round retreat.
