Little gem
This cottage has a peaceful setting amongst other connection cottages surrounded by trees, in a clearing where sun sets outside your place and has a stunning small view of the lake. We even saw some small roe deer. 10 min walk to the jetty and a refreshing dip in the lake.
The location is a 15 min walk up to Windermere or 25 min to Bownes. Buses can take you everywhere to explore the beauty of this part of the Lake District. We shall return!
