Wyke Bay, Ambleside
Arrival day: Friday | Sleeps: 8
Wow - what a find! Wyke Bay is simply breathtaking in every way, architect designed water's edge Lake District 5 star luxury in a wonderful secluded setting. This is a place fit for any Hollywood star and where in our famous corner of England could you find a more appropriate place to be - but on Lake Windermere...
Built in 2009 and with the 23rd century definitely in mind, yet sympathetically blending into our National Park, proudly adorning Lakeland slate and reflecting glass - Wyke Bay is somewhere to gaze out over the lake, forget everything and watch the ever changing mood of Windermere. A place of luxury is one where every detail is taken care of and here at Wyke Bay, it certainly lives up to this reputation. This is a place to live in luxury, relax and spend precious time together - here you will escape from the everyday and live in the dream.
The setting is sublime, approached along a private driveway which seems to go on for miles and in a private secluded part of Pullwood Bay, circumscribed by 50 acres of grounds and gardens with over half a mile of lake frontage. Wyke Bay seems to almost have its very own bay and the views are to 'die for', they will remain with you long after you leave.
If you have your own boat then perfect, otherwise, why not hire one for a few days - this is the way to tour our location in style and here your front garden is made of water... beautiful and tantalising Lake Windermere surrounds you. Here you not only truly experience Lake District life - you actually live on England's largest and most famous lake! Inside this is a luxury contemporary residence in every way with views everywhere; here you really do have a picture wall!
Here you are surrounded by glorious walking paradise with a mouth watering country pub / restaurant being only a stroll away, the famous 'Drunken Duck'. Bustling Ambleside is but a five minute drive away, stocked with excellent restaurants, local shops, bars, cinemas and more.
If searching for somewhere truly special and where returning home will never be the same again, then go on, try Wyke Bay, and experience Lake District lakeside luxury at its very best.
The accommodation comprises; this residence is ingeniously laid out with split levels and always taking complete advantage of the fabulous views; the open plan living area has to be seen and enjoyed to be fully appreciated, high glass walls gaze out over Lake Windermere and vaulted ceilings help cascade the light, this magical room has a feature fireplace which cleverly divides the lounge and dining area and the luxury designer kitchen is open plan to this living area. Two sets of glazed patio doors lead out from both the lounge and dining areas onto decking, part of which is under cover and both ideal for meals 'al fresco' and good wine with conversation late into the night while gazing over the lake. The sumptuous bedrooms are very special, the master bedroom has incredible views with walls of glass and three of the bedrooms have simply wonderful lake views while one bedroom overlooks the woodland. One bedroom even has its own raised decked patio, again with lake views. Wyke Bay is one of those dreamy places and we look forward to showing you how dreams do become reality.
