The property
Panoramic views are the focus of this contemporary Bowness holiday home, taking an elevated position only 5 minutes away from the centre of the village. The upside-down layout takes full advantage of the outlook - enormous windows throughout the living space, kitchen and dining area, a large forward-facing balcony to capture the afternoon sun, and a raised patio fully-equipped for al-fresco dining and BBQs.
It's not often such an outlook can be enjoyed from such a convenient Lake District self-catering property - a unique opportunity to immerse yourselves in spectacular scenery, luxurious privacy and the buzz of village life all at once! Tanna Hill also offers free Wi-Fi.
