River View
Description
Nestled within the Lake District National Park, River View is a well-appointed apartment set inside a brand-new 2020 luxury development on the bank of the River Leven.
Providing easy access to the Southern Lakes and Furness Peninsula, this romantic dwelling is perfect for couples looking for plenty of outdoor adventure within this scenic part of England.
Enter from the front door onto the first floor, with the stylish bathroom off to the side, consisting of a bath and shower over, sink with vanity mirror and a large heated towel rail.
Move into the open-plan living space, with contemporary furnishings including the chic sofa, Smart TV and additional lighting.
The well-equipped kitchen houses a range of integrated appliances around the Corian style worktops and local slate splashback, which is sure to encourage home-cooking when you’re not dining at a local restaurant.
At the other side of the room is the double bed which fits neatly into the corner, providing charming riverside views to wake up to, or step out onto the private balcony and listen to the relaxing sound of the water trickling by.
The apartment rests just a short walk away from local attractions including the historic Haverthwaite steam railway that runs (in season) from Haverthwaite to Lakeside, where cruises across Lake Windermere lead to Ambleside and Bowness, also within walking distance are the Lakeland Motor Museum, Café Ambio, Cliffhanger Escape Rooms and the Whitewater Hotel with its Spa and Leisure Club (day passes available) plus bar and bistro restaurant overlooking the river, nearby outdoor activities include horse-riding at Bigland Hall, Cartmel races through the year, Holker Estate and gardens, cycle trails and Go Ape experiences in Grizedale forest, fell walks, and water sports opportunities on Windermere or Coniston Water.
Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate exploring the National Trust owned Fell Foot park or take a hike through Hay Bridge nature reserve, before heading north to the hustle and bustle of Bowness-on-Windermere for a range of independent shops and attractions.
For eating out, this offers a great selection of dining options, from Michelin star restaurants to gastro pubs and casual cafés. River View is an immaculate apartment to enjoy the breathtaking Lake District National Park at any time of year.

What guests are saying
Overall we had a nice stay, but with a few simple things this place would be so much better.
The bathroom extractor fan doesn't work so every time you enter the bathroom you get a damp smell waft through the apartment. The bath is literally lethal there is nothing to hold on to when getting in or exiting the bath for a shower .also the welcome pack is well out of date. I had a coffee sachet without checking it went out of date in nov/2025 it was disgusting
Fabulous stay at Riverview everything you need for a restful break.
Nice property next to the river and a good base to explore the Lake District.
The property itself is very nice and the positives far outweigh the negatives, but we found the mattress to be totally inadequate as it's way too soft and gives no support at all. The sofa is like sitting on a park bench, very uncomfortable. There were no numbers on the outside bins so we did not know where to put our rubbish, and we were only provided with one small bag for the bin under the sink. The key safe has no number on it for the property. Lastly, the bathroom extractor fan was not working as far as we could determine, and the shower mat is pretty useless and dangerous. Our major complaints are with the mattress being too soft and the sofa being very uncomfortable, which is subjective; you may like a soft mattress and hard sofa, we unfortunately did not. The other matters are just small gripes really. It would then make it a five‑star property in our opinion.
