The property

Highfield Cottage stands proudly in Windermere, a three-storey retreat nestled in the heart of the Lake District National Park.

Designed for families and friends, this pet-friendly haven offers Smart TVs in every bedroom, a woodburning stove for fireside evenings, and easy access to the lake and local amenities. Arriving at the roadside, guests are met with a traditional stone exterior and a tidy front garden of gravel and lawn—an inviting prelude to the comfort within.

Step into the hallway, where wooden floors and hanging space provide a practical welcome after a day on the fells. The sitting room draws you in with its generous seating and warm firelight.

A bay window filters in natural light, while the Smart TV offers quiet entertainment.

The dining room, with its window seat and soft glow from the electric fire, is perfect for shared meals, games, and relaxed conversation.

Books and games line the shelves, adding a personal touch to the space. In the kitchen, everything is arranged for ease—whether you're preparing breakfast or a celebratory supper, the layout encourages connection and flow.

A cloakroom with basin and WC completes the ground floor. Upstairs, the bedrooms span two levels.

The second-floor king-size room features a blue headboard, panelled wall, and a desk for quiet moments, with views that stretch across rooftops and hills.

The double room offers a calm retreat, while the twin provides storage and comfort for younger guests or friends. The bathroom, also on the top floor, invites you to unwind with a bath or refreshing shower after a day of discovery. Outdoors, the rear patio is a private spot for morning coffees or evening drinks under the stars.

The front garden offers another peaceful perch to watch the village life unfold. With Windermere’s vibrant centre just a short walk away, and nearby attractions like Brockhole and Orrest Head within easy reach, Highfield Cottage offers a memorable base for exploring the Lakes.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £350.
