    “A wonderful stay!”

    The cottage is beautifully finished and built for comfort. We started our days watching day break from the living room window with our morning coffee. As night turns to day the hills come into focus, the view is spectacular! For a city couple like us it was really special. I recommend this cottage to anyone, local pubs are great and lakeside taxis reliable and always happy to accommodate dogs, should you want to leave the car for an evening and head into bowness for dinner. I honestly cannot ...

I honestly cannot wait to come back.

The property

The Cosy Peacock is a truly unique luxury cottage, superbly nestled in the heart of classic Lake District scenery, with breathtaking panoramic views. Wind along the peaceful Troutbeck Valley, which sits mid-way between the vibrant holiday towns of Windermere and Ambleside, and you take in panoramic views as you approach your holiday home. A patchwork of pretty craggy hilltops, spectacular fells and some of the finest English greenery, all marked-out by our beloved, distinctive Lake District stone walls and dotted with grey Herdwick sheep. Look back, and you're rewarded with open views of glittering Lake Windermere and beyond, as you reach your private luxury escape. This premium cottage is two-bed, on three levels, with private alfresco dining area and garden, and is perfect for special family holidays, celebrations, and weekend get-togethers. Set in this sought-after location, from ground-floor kitchen and adjoining wet-room, up to living area and on to slumber and bathrooms, the charm and splendour of the Lake District is never far away. The Cosy Peacock cottage is a luxury stone holiday home, exquisitely modernised, whilst retaining many of its original wooden beams, exposed stone walls and open fireplace, thick wall window and slate floor. == Accommodation in detail Living Area: The outstanding views throughout this property mean you are never too far from the picturesque views and tranquil sounds of your perfect Lake District retreat. Enjoy the second-floor sumptuous living area, boasting far-reaching views from the Juliette balcony. A relaxing space place to unwind, amongst the divine furnishings, and with a warming wood-burner.

Generous in size, including dining area to sit four, large range, wine cooler, washer/dryer and granite worktops, this kitchen is designed for special get-togethers. Sometimes the best parties end up in the kitchen! Bedrooms: Designed for comfort, the two cosy bedrooms at the top of the cottage are luxuriously furnished, with one super king size and one king size. Sumptuous beds are kitted out with Egyptian cotton linens and goose down duvets providing the setting for a blissful night. Black-out blinds, underfloor heating and smart TV's make unwinding at the Cosy Peacock cottage easy. Bathrooms: After a day on the fells, or a night in one of the nearby gastro pubs, soak in one of the two invigorating bathrooms; one luxury-sized monsoon shower over designer bath and second bespoke slate wet-room, with shower and toilet. Garden: Set back from the winding village road, the Cosy Peacock has a ground-floor private patio seating four, and peaceful garden - an especially family and pet-friendly feature. It's also perfect for pre-dinner drinks or alfresco dining and barbeques - soak up the last of the spectacular views, and watch the landscape wake up with your morning coffee. Location A unique, luxury cottage cradled within the secluded Troutbeck Valley, yet only a short drive from shops and restaurants in Windermere village, the lake itself and the vibrant communities of Bowness and Ambleside; the Troutbeck Valley is a peaceful haven away from the rush. Further afield, you're never too far from the main linking roads throughout the Lake District.

About the location

TROUTBECK

Windermere 3 miles; Ambleside 4 miles.

The small Lakeland village of Troutbeck can be found between its more famous neighbours Windermere and Ambleside, close by the Kirkstone Pass. A mixture of houses, cottages and farms, the village is scattered along a narrow lane bordered by a drystone wall. Many of these buildings date back to the 17th Century with features such as mullioned windows and heavy cylindrical chimneys and the northern end boasts its own 17th century inn. Close by, the bustling towns of Windermere and Ambleside are popular with visitors, providing a range of amenities to suit all tastes. Lake Windermere offers boat trips, including the lakeside ferry to the Lakeside Aquarium and Grizedale Forest Park. The ‘Windermere Steamboat Museum’ displays a fascinating collection of boats whilst children will enjoy the ‘World of Beatrix Potter’ in Bowness, where technology brings her characters to life. Within easy reach of destinations such as Coniston Water, Kendal, Keswick and the Lakeland Mountains, Troutbeck is ideally situated for exploring all that the region has to offer.

No babies or children under 16.
