Fantastically located for days by Coniston Water, this exquisite, luxurious home offers a superb escape from the everyday. Impeccable design and decor create sublime spaces in which to enjoy moments of peace and quiet, and the fabulous outdoor areas welcome lively evenings. Sleeping 12 across six bedrooms, this bolthole welcomes a four-legged friend too, inviting you to spend quality time with friends and family and to embark on picturesque adventures.
Built around a 17th-century cottage, traditional features are beautifully complemented by contemporary design and the brilliant, wraparound slate terrace which encompasses the home. Step up and inside and sink into zesty sofas in the lounge where floor-to-ceiling windows and sliding doors offer far-reaching views. The open fire is the perfect welcome home after days outside, as is the bubbling hot. Slate from The Old Man of Coniston lines the kitchen worktops, adding bags of character to this fabulous space where you can cook up a storm and dine with mesmerising views through the glass, sliding doors. Between them, the bedrooms boast a private terrace, balconies, en-suites and spectacular views, and sit over the ground and first floors and the original cottage. Outside, get some fresh air in the 4 acres of woodland and garden where you can gather around the fire pit, sit on the terrace or walk the footbridge to the rear garden in search of the hot tub and outside shower. There is off-road parking for ten cars.
Sitting less than half a mile from the local village of Coniston, enjoy your secluded location whilst having all the amenities you need close by. Not only can you enjoy a night off from the kitchen and enjoy dining out, but you can visit the boating centre and make a splash sailing, canoeing or paddleboarding to name a few activities. The quaint village of Hawkshead makes for a lovely day out and is just 4.5 miles away. Head here for tales of Beatrix Potter and a handful of National Trust attractions.
