Elm - Woodland Cottages, Yorkshire Dales

This lovely cottage is set amongst beautiful woodlands on a high promontory on the edge of Bowness-on-Windermere. A wonderful location set amongst beautiful countryside, within easy reach of Lake Windermere and the ever popular and charismatic Bowness on Windermere.

As you enter this hidden glade, the many delights of this retreat will unfold, with mature trees, fir, bracken and the occasional wildlife on display. A superb location to organise a group of friends and family to get away from it all and enjoy a memorable break, simply relax in the hot tub and take in the beautiful surroundings.

This welcoming cottage offers a lovely sitting room with picture windows to bring the natural beauty of the surroundings into the main guest area. A modern woodburner makes for cosy evenings around the fire and 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 bedroom contains a king-size luxurious bed and a modern en-suite bathroom, a hallway and useful utility area with 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 after a gruelling day discovering the many wonderful walks in this hikers paradise. 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 on the doorstep 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.
