Description

Ulverston 7 miles.

Brimstone is a contemporary apartment, perfectly placed in the southern Lake District village of Backbarrow, near Newby Bridge, at the foot of Lake Windermere, Cumbria.

An excellent location for a peaceful retreat to start your outdoor adventures, giving easy access to both the Southern and Western Lakes, ideal for friends and families alike.

A perfect base to enjoy walking, and wild water swimming, and for the cyclists there is secure cycle storage.

There’s a wealth of cultural interest, within this Unesco World Heritage Centre.

The most stunning place to appreciate the stone walled fields in their natural backdrop, but providing so much interest for visitors of all ages looking for a memorable stay.

On arrival, there are two dedicated car park spaces.

Enter the welcoming hallway into a pristine open-plan living space complete with a fully-equipped kitchen, dining area and seating for all, a Smart TV, along with excellent WiFi.

Neutral furnishings and well-equipped kitchen facilities, crockery and glassware to welcome your arrival, perfect to unwind after a day of adventure.

The small village of Backbarrow sits by the banks of the River Leven and the southern tip of Lake Windermere.

The views of the magnificent river from the lounge area enable you to watch the daredevils on their rafts fly by using the power of the river or sit and watch the local wildlife.

The famous Haverthwaite Steam Railway runs close by, with the Lakeland Motor Museum, Haverthwaite and Aquarium of the Lakes in proximity.

Ulverston, Grange Over Sands and the quaint Cartmel village host a variety of independent shops steeped in history.

Bowness-on-Windermere provides a lovely day out, with shopping, swans and boat rides.

The picturesque village of Hawkshead retains the charm that endeared its most famous residents - William Wordsworth and Beatrix Potter.

Enjoy magnificent views across Windermere and the surrounding fells and visit the iconic pubs and restaurants the area is known for.

Set amidst the fringe of Lake Windermere, this attractive location makes an inspiring choice to forage into a heartland of silver lakes, towering peaks and lonely gorse-clad moors.

Make memories at Brimstone.

Lovely place to stay in The Lakes and easy to get around without too many jams.

Some nice walks out of Backbarrow. The only small comment would be that the seating area could do with another small table if there are 6 people staying. That said, we all agreed that we'd happily stay at Brimstone again.

What a wonderful find.

Beautiful historic surroundings that brought more charm to the home away from home. Everything we required was provided and instructions explained in detail when needed. Thank you Jane and David for a delightful stay. Michelle & Neil Lewis
