Featuring a well-balanced mix of original features and modern appliances, this country cottage provides a perfect base for a Lake District destination holiday with all of your closest companions. This box-ticking base welcomes up to eight guests across three well-proportioned storeys, complete with a garden to spend time in on summer evenings and a wood burner to curl up by when cold weather hits. Spend your time in the delightful village of Near Sawrey, a beloved Lake District destination that’s home to Hill Top (less than 300 metres), the famed home of Beatrix Potter. Made with multi-generational groups in mind, the ground floor is split into two reception areas, a large lounge/diner with sofas, Sky TV and the cosy wood burner, alongside an additional snug room with more comfy seating and an Xbox 360 games console. Handily, there’s also a utility and a shower room here on the ground floor. Find the kitchen at the back of the property, a real treat for any budding chef with a double oven and an American-style fridge-freezer. Experience dinner with a view in the garden, soaking up the greenery as you enjoy meals outside. Heading back inside, three four restful bedrooms spread out on the first floor and an additional master bedroom at attic level. The village is perched on the banks of Esthwaite Water (0.5 miles) a scenic spot with a boathouse café and plenty of opportunities for fishing trout and pike. Lake Windermere is also within walking distance (1.5 miles), so you can embark on a ferry across to Bowness-on-Windermere (2.5 miles) or simply set off on a walk around the water’s edge. For the very best view of Windermere, take a walk up Claife Heights (2.5 miles). Another popular National Park destination is Grizedale Forest (4.5 miles) with ample walking routes, bike paths and even a Go Ape! activity centre (5 miles).
