This quaint cottage is located in the tranquil village of Bouth and is a superb base for couples and families looking to explore the beautiful southern lakes and fells. Sleeping four people and one holidaying hound, it’s a perfect location for keen walkers who love the great outdoors. A local pub is within walking distance and the stunning Lake Windermere is a short drive away.
The rooms in this delightful home are light and airy, with comfortable furnishings and traditional touches giving it real character. Stairs lead up to the bright and spacious open-plan living space, with the lounge area set under heavy oak beams and a pitched ceiling. Allow the wood burner-effect electric fire to warm you up on chillier evenings as you settle down to enjoy a film. The attractive kitchen will keep the most discerning of cooks happy, with everything needed to rustle up a tasty meal which can then be enjoyed together around the dining table. French doors also lead outside from the kitchen. The house has two cosy double bedrooms which are designed with your rest and relaxation in mind. One is en-suite and located on this level, while the other is on the lower floor along with the main bathroom. Outside, enjoy some al fresco dining in the small terraced patio garden, which boasts some stunning views of the surrounding countryside.
For an active family day out, head to the National Trust’s Fell Foot Park (5 miles) where there are adventure playgrounds, lake swimming and boat hire available. Lake Windermere (4 miles) is also a must-see, with some scenic walks to enjoy around its shores, as well as regular cruises. If you fancy a trip to the coast, stroll along the promenade at Grange-over-Sands (10.5 miles) before stopping off somewhere for a bite to eat.
