This pretty first-floor apartment is situated within a stunning former country house and enjoys a wonderful location overlooking Esthwaite Water. Surrounded by 40 acres of gardens and woodland, it offers airy and light accommodation for four people, making it perfect for small families or couples. Guests can enjoy private lakeside access during their stay, opening up plenty of walking opportunities, while the on-site children’s playground will prove popular with younger guests.

With traditional furnishings and warm decor, this property has an inviting and homely feel. The open-plan living space is a welcoming place to rest at the end of a busy day of exploring. Sink down into the comfortable seating and pop on the electric fire to keep everyone toasty on chillier evenings, before whipping up a tasty snack or meal in the cottage-style kitchen. The two cosy bedrooms, one featuring a balcony, are both en-suite and are tastefully decorated with your rest and relaxation in mind. Stepping outside, let the children loose in the on-site play area which includes outdoor table tennis and pitch and putt golf. Meanwhile, relax in the shared grounds which feature many places to sit and soak up the peace and tranquillity.

Esthwaite Water is one of the region’s quieter lakes, making it perfect for gentle strolls and rambles. For a day on the water, head to Lake Windermere (4 miles) or Coniston Water (6 miles) where you can try out different water sports or simply relax on a pleasure boat. The popular village of Hawkshead is just over 1 mile away and is a super place to meander, with tearooms, independent shops and great local pubs.

There are great views from both bedrooms and living room, and there's even an outside balcony. Lots of good walks from the doorstep and into Hawkshead and Sawrey. Suggest you bring your own torch and reflective clothing if walking at night on the B5285, although much of it has a separate footpath. The apartment is very well equipped and very cosy.

We have stayed in Broomriggs 7 for many years, and have enjoyed it immensely. The only reason we have given four stars to "comfort" (above) is that on the Tuesday after we arrived scaffolding was erected over the adjacent apartment, and the rest of the week was inevitably noisy and dusty. Ir coincided, unfortunately, with the only week we have spenRead moret at Broomriggs without a car, so we had full days of disturbance while confined to the apartment. Better luck next time, we hope.
