Midways

Midways stands as a remarkable house in Bowness-on-Windermere, Cumbria, showcasing far‑reaching views over Lake Windermere and the surrounding fells, making it an exceptional choice for families and friends in search of a high-calibre Lake District escape with a delightful hot tub to relax in.

Arriving at the generous parking area, the striking façade of stone and timber makes an immediate impression, and walking towards the entrance hints at the refined interior waiting within.

Once inside, you can begin your stay by placing your Lake District gear and outdoor layers in the utility room, where the washing machine, tumble dryer and sink offer everything needed to prepare for the days ahead.

A ground-floor shower room sits conveniently nearby, allowing you to refresh after time spent roaming lakeside paths with its walk-in shower, basin and WC.

From here, the open-plan living space draws you forward, where polished marble-style flooring adds an elegant sheen beneath your steps and leads you into a beautifully presented kitchen with white cabinetry, smooth surfaces and integrated Miele appliances.

Pendant lights suspended above the breakfast bar create an inviting spot for a relaxed drink, while matching lights over the dining table set the tone for memorable mealtimes.

Beyond, the sitting area is anchored by a sculptural corner leather sofa and a stylish electric fire, encouraging you to unwind as the Smart TV stands ready for leisurely evenings.

Approaching the Juliet balconies reveals the home’s elevated position, opening up astonishing views across Lake Windermere and towards the distant peaks.

Stepping outside onto the decking brings fresh air and even broader vistas taking in the panorama.

Steps lead down to the artificial grassed area and patio, offering additional places to relax over morning coffee or enjoy alfresco dining.

When night approaches, guests can retreat to one of the beautifully designed bedrooms, beginning with the ground-floor king-size room that suits those who prefer fewer stairs and includes an en-suite with walk-in shower, basin and WC.

The first-floor master suite is an indulgent sanctuary with suede carpet underfoot, a Velux window that brightens the space and a gracefully positioned sunken bath that frames the dramatic lake and mountain views, alongside an en-suite walk-in shower room.

The lower-ground floor bedroom serves as a private retreat with a super king-size bed, reading area, Smart TV and a Juliet balcony that brings in crisp Lakeland air, along with its own walk-in shower en-suite.

Outside, the rear decking, artificial grassed area and patio offer calm spaces to enjoy the setting, while a pub, a shop and the lakeshore lie a short journey away.

Further exploration leads you to standout destinations within an hour, including Ambleside with its independent shops, lakefront strolls and the impressive walk to Stock Ghyll Force; Bowness-on-Windermere with its lively pier, inviting eateries and the immersive Beatrix Potter Attraction; and Grasmere, where stone-built charm, famous gingerbread and scenic paths guide you towards awe-inspiring viewpoints.

Midways in Windermere brings together striking design, uplifting scenery and thoughtfully composed spaces for an unforgettable stay.
