The property

Waters Edge Lodge is an attractive single‑storey retreat set within Whitecross Bay in Windermere, Cumbria, where sweeping lake views, sipping a drink on the decking and off‑road parking for two cars shape a relaxed break beside the water.

Inside, the open‑plan living space immediately draws attention to the glimmering lake through its wide windows, creating a gentle connection between indoors and out.

The sitting area offers a welcoming spot to pause after a day exploring, with the soft glow of the electric fire adding warmth as you gather with those closest to you.

The kitchen is arranged for easy self‑catering, equipped with an oven, gas hob, microwave, fridge, freezer and dishwasher, while the dining table encourages slow meals and shared plans for the days ahead.

A king‑size bedroom provides a calm space to retreat, while the twin bedroom benefits from an en‑suite with walk‑in shower, basin, heated towel rail and WC.

A separate bathroom with bath, shower over, basin, heated towel rail and WC adds welcome practicality for families or two couples travelling together.

Step out onto the decking to breathe in the crisp Cumbrian air, where outdoor seating invites morning coffees overlooking the lake or evening drinks as the light fade.

With a swimming pool, restaurant and shop on‑site, days can unfold at an easy pace, blending lakeside wandering with the convenience of nearby facilities.
