Wastwater Cottage Windermere
Tucked between Elterwater and Beaumont cottages in the heart of Windermere, Wastwater is a compact and charming one-bedroom escape for couples or solo travellers. It’s a practical, well-placed base with a relaxed feel, ideal for exploring the Lakes without the need for a car or a complicated itinerary.
The space
Inside:
Split over two levels, the layout is a little quirky, in a good way. Downstairs you’ll find the double-sized bedroom with wardrobe space and an ensuite shower room (WC and basin included), creating a private, restful spot to unwind at the end of the day.
Upstairs is a light-filled open-plan space with views over the rooftops of Windermere. There’s a comfy sofa, smart TV, and a compact but well-equipped kitchen for relaxed dinners in. Whether you’re here for a walking weekend or just a change of scene, everything is close at hand and easy to settle into.
Outside:
Step out and you’re just moments from Windermere village with its cafés, shops and bakeries, or head downhill to Bowness for lakeside strolls, boat trips and dinner by the water. The location is brilliantly central, meaning you can explore the best of both towns entirely on foot.
Property Highlights:
Central Windermere Location: Walkable to both Windermere and Bowness villages, with cafes, shops and the lake just down the hill.
Practical & Comfortable: A well-equipped kitchen, smart TV and thoughtful touches to make your stay easy.
