Overview
Property code: SZ463

From this rural bolthole you’ll have a whole host of walks at your fingertips, including a stunning nature reserve and dramatic fells. Pull on your walking boots and be inspired to get outdoors.

Enjoy a relaxing getaway in this charming property, which boasts wonderful views over the estuary, surrounding fells and open moorland thanks to its elevated position. Less than 2 miles away is the fabulous Duddon Mosses Nature Reserve. Walk for 2 miles through the Site of Special Scientific Interest and marvel at the vast array of wildlife, plus exquisite views, before enjoying a delicious pub lunch and hopping on the train at Foxfield for your return journey. Coniston Water (10 miles) makes a lovely day out. Enjoy majestic waterside strolls, climb to the summit of Old Man of Coniston for panoramic views or take a ride on the truly magical Victorian Steam Yacht Gondola.

Enter via a gated entrance, where you’ll find a gravel parking area. A gentle sloping path then leads you through the beautiful garden and up the steps to the property. Once inside, you’ll find a warm and inviting open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. The light and bright space houses a comfortable leather sofa to sink into after an action-packed day to watch a film on the TV/DVD. There’s also an extensive selection of books, puzzles, maps and guides for your enjoyment. The kitchen area looks over the rear garden and towards the distant moorlands and is equipped with an electric oven and grill, fridge with freezer compartment and a microwave. After rustling up a tasty meal, take a seat at the large dining table by the window and enjoy the views overlooking the estuary. The charming twin bedroom is decorated in a traditional style with an en-suite shower room with WC.

The gorgeous veranda can be accessed via the front door or French doors directly from the lounge area. This outdoor space is the perfect spot to sit and unwind, surrounded by nature. There’s also a lovely mature garden, with a lawn, apple trees and wild borders, which your four-legged friend will love exploring. There’s a handy area to dry clothes, as well as a sheltered area under the veranda which is ideal for storing bikes. Off-road, gated parking is available for one car.

Third or fourth stay at The Annexe in the quieter southern part of the Lakes. Good access to Wasdale up the west coast or to the central Lakes via Coniston or Windermere. Ulverston is underrated but it has a historic town centre, great walks to the lighthouse and along the canal and a Booths supermarket.

Lovely holiday accomodation. Beautiful views , lots of things to do. The information leaflets and maps are fantastic. We recommend getting the train as the views around the coast and Cumbrian mountains are so picturesque. We would definitely come again.

The general condition of property was great, albeit a bit dated. However the cutlery was no longer fit for purpose. I had to search through all of it to find the one spoon that didn't taste of tarnish/metal. Having said this, I would recommend the property to friends and family.

Second stay at the Annexe & loved it as much as the first! A very comfy home from home. The views are stunning and watching the birds in the garden was a favourite pastime, even saw a greater spotted woodpecker & numerous bats. Lots & lots of local information on walks and things to do in the area which is a huge bonus. The lack of WiFi resulted inRead more a more relaxed week away disconnected from the world. Also there are two excellent and friendly pubs in walking distance. We will book again. Hide
