Located in an elevated position above the lakeside village of Coniston, this beautiful property enjoys panoramic views of the lake and surrounding mountainous landscape. Sleeping four people, with a single bedroom accommodating one, this welcoming home is also within walking distance of local pubs and shops. With many walks, climbs and water sports on the doorstep, there’s something to keep everyone entertained.
Neutral decor, comfortable furnishings and some traditional touches make this a welcoming home for your special break. The bright kitchen/diner is a sociable space for the family to gather to dine on meals and snacks, which the cooks of the family will enjoy rustling up on the traditional AGA. Retreat to the lounge after a busy day on your feet, where the open fire will keep everyone warm as you settle down to enjoy a film or board game. Stairs lead to the first floor, where you’ll find two inviting and restful bedrooms, while a second flight of stairs brings you to the double attic bedroom which is set in the eaves of the house. Patio doors in the lounge open out onto the split-level terraced garden, which is a lovely space for everyone to enjoy some al fresco dining and some drinks as the sun goes down.
Meander around the shops in Coniston village, which is within walking distance, before stopping off at one of its pubs or cafes. The Old Man of Coniston fell offers a range of walks to the summit, some hardier than others, depending on your mood. On the lakeside, there’s a boating centre where you can hire canoes, paddleboards or sailing boats. For a more leisurely day, enjoy a ride on a restored Victorian steamer.
