The property

Just south of Coniston you'll find both luxurious retreat and nature-lovers' paradise; perfect for family and friendly gatherings in this spectacular area of the Lake District. Almost a year was spent nurturing Bracken Ground as a contemporary 5 star property that would sit beautifully in its wild and wonderful surroundings. Alongside a meandering stream, the house is surrounded by 7 acres of unspoilt natural grounds containing woodland glades, grassy openings, a large wildlife pond and even private outdoor hot tub and sauna facilities. Separate towels are provided for these facilities. Inside the house is contemporary yet soothing with calm colours, abundant light and space. The reception areas create a superb environment for dining and entertaining, while every Feather & Black bedroom and Fired Earth bathroom wears its designer style with pride. == Accommodation in detail Private drive to parking for 10 cars including garage storage. Large porch entrance with hanging space. Wonderful main lounge and dining room with leather furnishings, log burner, garden doors and TV/SkyHD/SkySports. Logs are provided and ready for use at the property upon arrival. Breakfast kitchen with contemporary appliances including dishwasher. Separate laundry room. Second sitting/reading room with maps and walking guides provided. Boutique master king-size bedroom with en-suite shower room, bay window and sitting area. 3 further double bedrooms (one en-suite) and twin bedroom with French doors to the rear. Luxury house bathroom with large bath tub and additional shower room ensuring convenience for all guests. Soaps and bath soak are provided in each bathroom. Outside the 7 acres of grounds provide magical exploration opportunities for children and adults and if you're lucky you may see some of the local wildlife such as deer, badgers, foxes or some of the resident bats. To top it all, in the grounds you will find a wood-built barrel sauna and hot tub. Please note there is a pond with open access and children should be supervised at all times. See picture 1 & 5

About the location

CONISTON

Hawkshead 4 miles; Ambleside 8 miles.

Nestling at the head of Coniston Water, the pretty village of Coniston is surrounded by some of the most beautiful scenery in the Lake District National Park, making it a superb base for touring, with Hawkshead, Ambleside, Windermere and Grasmere just a short drive away. Superb walking, mountain biking and climbing are available locally on Coniston Old Man and Wetherlam, and the lovely woodland trails at Grizedale Forest. For watersports enthusiasts, the quiet lake is ideal for dinghy sailing and canoeing, whilst the less active can enjoy a leisure cruise on the beautiful steam yacht 'Gondola’, or visit Brantwood, the former home of John Ruskin. Nearby attractions include the award-winning village of Hawkshead, home of the Beatrix Potter Gallery, Tarn Hows, one of the most visited beauty spots in the country and Esthwaite Water, famous for its fishing. A first class holiday location at any time of the year.
