Beech - Woodland Cottages, Yorkshire Dales

This premier Lakeland cottage is set amongst beautiful woodlands on a high promontory on the edge of Bowness-on-Windermere. As you enter this hidden glade, the many delights of this Lakeland retreat will unfold, with mature trees, fir, bracken and the occasional wildlife on display.

An ideal location to get away from it all and enjoy a break with family and friends, simply relax in the hot tub and take in the beautiful surroundings. This bright and welcoming cottage offers a lovely sitting room with picture windows to take advantage of the far-reaching views.

Enjoy the cosy woodburning stove and stylish well thought out contemporary furnishings. A modern, well-equipped kitchen with open plan dining area and an adjoining utility area provide all you need to enjoy some wonderful home cooking.

The ground floor also contains a bedroom with a king-size luxurious bed and a modern en-suite bathroom, a hallway and useful cloakroom. Upstairs the cottage boasts a further four bedrooms, two with en-suites and a superb house bathroom with an inviting shower and bath for relaxing in.

From the sitting room and the dining area doors lead out to a fabulous decked area housing a luxurious hot tub, an ideal location to watch the sun dip below the trees and enjoy a well-deserved tipple. Less than a mile away is the wonderful idiosyncratic and charming Windermere Golf Club, a most welcoming club.

A short walk takes guests down to the lake ferry where a short 'cruise' gives access to the far shores of Hawkshead and the magical Tarn Hows area. All the facilities of Bowness-on-Windermere are a short drive or a longer walk from Beech Cottage and the not to be missed attractions include the hand-made chocolate shop and the wonderful walks along the Bowness promenade where the many cruise ships run down the Lake to Ambleside.
