Enjoying a superb rural location with views across to Esthwaite Water, this attractive garden apartment is the ideal retreat for a romantic break away. Two dogs are also welcome and with some fantastic scenic walks from the front door, this is the perfect choice if you’re planning to get out and explore on foot. With some super pubs and shops in nearby Hawkshead, less than a mile away, you’ll find everything you need on the doorstep.

Situated on the ground floor of the owner’s property in the hamlet of Roger Ground, this pretty apartment is both warm and inviting. Steps lead down to the property, where you’ll enter to find a cosy lounge/diner which enjoys some fantastic views across the valley. After a tiring day of exploring, snuggle up on the comfortable sofa and watch a film while the electric fire keeps you warm. Whether you’re whipping up a tasty snack or a sit-down meal, the sunny kitchen has everything to hand that you’ll need. Wake up from a restful sleep in the inviting bedroom and step outside the French doors into your private patio area and take in the morning with a coffee. Guests are welcome to use the owner’s gardens too, where you’ll find a seating area and a BBQ.

Stroll into Hawkshead, famed for its connections to Beatrix Potter and William Wordsworth, and relax in one of its many tearooms or pubs. Whether you’re in the mood for a hike, a cycle or trying out a new sport on the water, head to Lake Windermere (5.5 miles) and Coniston Water (5.5 miles) which have plenty on offer. Those looking for a more challenging hike will love climbing The Old Man of Coniston, 5.5 miles away.

Arriving late on a dark, wet Friday night before New Year we found a warm, cosy cottage with mince pies and marmalade waiting for us. The cottage had everything we needed and we soon settled in. The bed is huge and the shower fabulous and hot after a wet day on the fells. The garden is enclosed if you have a dog and looks out over fields.

Lovely garden flat - peaceful with beautiful open views and well equipped. Easy 10-15 minute walk into Hawkshead where there are plenty of places to get a drink or some food and a handy Coop.

We left the car overnight on Read morethe last night so we could set off with 100% and it was better value that way than using a fast charger en route. Hide
