“A wonderfully quiet cottage in a beautiful location with a short drive to access all the activities and facilities in nearby bustling Bowness.”

- Mrs Piner, June 2021
Mr Kendrick June 2021

“A quiet cottage in a good location and within walking distance of the Masons Arms, which serves excellent food.”

It was very comfortable for the two of us. There is plenty of quiet walking (not too strenuous) close by and Gummers Howe is just down the lane. The only criticism is that the TV and DVD player are passable but could do with updating for the odd evening that we stayed in.

- Mr Kendrick, June 2021
Miss Cockrell May 2021

“Lovely cottage with all the facilities you need.”

Very picturesque. We stayed as a family with small children and they loved it.

“The location of the property meant that we could go walking very easily in beautiful country side.”

With regards the house - the bathrooms had been recently renovated so were great to use after fell walking all day.

The property

This beautiful converted barn resides in a picturesque setting overlooking this lush green valley, only a few hundred yards from the renowned Mason's Arms at Strawberry Bank, within an original farm. Characterful Lakeland externally yet step inside to see contemporary finish throughout. With a feeling of complete seclusion, approached via a quiet leafy lane, this is an unforgettable place to soak up panoramic countryside views and recharge away from the rush. But remember, you're never too far from excellent pub dining and all the entertainments of Windermere lake shore. == Flexible changeover days, please enquire within! == Accommodation in detail Entrance hallway; the relaxing living room is cosy, bright and a great place to unwind. The dining area is perfect for formal gatherings and is open to the living area. The well equipped breakfast kitchen has all you need and on the ground floor is a shower room. Upstairs to the beautiful bedrooms, two king size and one super-king size which can be made into a twin room so please specify when making your booking. The bathroom has a bath as well as separate power shower cubicle. Location This beautiful Lake District holiday cottage takes an enviable rural location; overlooking the serene Lyth Valley but still only a few miles from shops, restaurants, pubs and Lake District family attractions in Bowness. To the east of Lake Windermere the Lyth Valley's peaceful landscapes provide a quieter alternative to the hustle bustle of popular Lake District holiday destinations such as Bowness and Ambleside. The valley is renowned for its wonderful walking, down quiet leafy lanes or up onto the fells to overlook Lake Windermere. The famous Gummers How walk begins only a short drive from your door and promises one of the finest lake views in the Lake District from its manageable summit. It's also perfectly followed by a meal at the Mason's Arms at Strawberry Bank - one of several acclaimed Lake District country pubs nestled in the valley. For family entertainment, sophisticated shopping and lively nightlife you're only a few miles from Bowness village. You'll also find family entertainments such as the World of Beatrix Potter, mini golf by the lake, hire boats and row boats in the bay, and the opportunity to take a cruise on one of the Windermere Lake steamers. Windermere Golf Club is within easy reach on the outskirts of Bowness. From your holiday cottage in the Lyth Valley, you'll easily explore the rest of the Lake District by joining up to the famously scenic A591 at Windermere village - just a couple of miles north of Bowness.

Please be aware this property can not offer a Friday change over day.
