Description
Fabulously elevated on the hill-side, the appropriately named Lake Vista Cottage is a striking Edwardian property and a masterpiece of elegance and grandeur.
Built as a gentleman’s residence, the home retains many of its original features, including window seats, fireplaces and elaborate lighting, and is absolutely beautifully presented inside and out! The kitchen is delightful in its classic farmhouse style, with a traditional Aga, a large central island and flagstone-style flooring. The formal dining area is a perfectly grand setting, with an ornate chandelier above the polished table. There are three charming reception rooms, each equipped with plush soft furnishings or elegant leather sofas and bursting with light! Underfloor heating will keep you comfortable, a wine cooler will keep you content and the Xbox console should keep all ages entertained!
There are five sublime bedrooms in total, each one is fabulously filled with natural light and oozes style with warm, soft tones and rustic charm and all grant gorgeous countryside views. There are four double rooms and one twin room, two of which enjoy ensuite shower rooms with excellent double-rain-showers, and one delightful family bathroom with a huge free-standing bathtub. From the stunning Juliet balcony in the master suite you can enjoy breath-taking views across this sublime Lakeland scenery.
And finally, step out into your extensive garden with a vast terrace which stretches all the way from the house into the distance, surrounded by dazzling foliage. To the far end there is a quaint seating area, at which you can feel totally at one with the natural world, listening only to the birdsong and rustling leaves. In addition, you can enjoy your private tennis court, lawns and a second large patio area and ample area for off-road parking!
Despite you’re wonderfully rural location, you’re just a 15-minute stroll away from the bustling village of Windermere, with tons of restaurants, cafes and traditional country pubs. Also a 15 minute walk away is Lake Windermere, England's largest lake, at 10.5 miles long and 219 feet at its deepest point! The surrounding area abounds with hiking, cycling, water-sports, crazy golf, climbing, hot air ballooning, orienteering and even more incredible entertainment opportunities, so prepare for an unforgettable holiday in this most picturesque of destinations! Access to the lake is only a few minutes' stroll away at Bowness Bay, where you can hire a boat or take a cruise with Windermere Lake Cruises which depart regularly to both Ambleside and Lakeside. /n Security deposit /n £350 to be paid directly to the owner 8 weeks prior to your arrival date and to be refunded in full subject to a damage inspection on departure /n Arrival time /n 4pm /n Departure time /n 10am /n Energy costs included? /n Yes, included in the rental price /n Linen & towels included? /n Yes, included in the rental price /n End of stay cleaning included? /n Yes, included in the rental price /n Internet access? /n Yes, Wi-Fi is included in the rental price /n Changeover day /n Flexible /n Minimum stay /n Please note that there is a 3-night minimum stay, this may be increased across peak dates /n Pets welcome? /n No pets /n Smoking Allowed? /n No smoking
