Accommodation overview: Standing amidst lovely, peaceful countryside above the Kent Estuary in the village of Allithwaite just outside Grange-over-Sands, this charming detached family home has two reception rooms as well as four bedrooms. It enjoys fantastic views towards Morecambe Bay and has a very large garden and south-facing patio to enjoy the summer evenings.
With extensive fell walking from the door, it lies 1/2 mile from shops, pubs, cafes and a railway station on the edge of the Lake District National Park. There is the renowned Joy Ketchun Nature Reserve within walking distance at Humphrey Head. Lake Windermere is just 5 miles away and very popular for water sports, particularly towards the southern tip. Those less energetic can still enjoy all the scenery on offer from the waters via a boat cruise (from Bowness). Visit the 18th-century dome shaped villa on Belle Isle, the largest of the fourteen islands, which can be reached by ferry. Nearby attractions also include the Steamboat Museum and a visitors’ centre at Brockhole. Across the waters at Far Sawrey lies Beatrix Potter’s former home Hill Top (NT), a must for anyone who has ever enjoyed the tales of Peter Rabbit and Jemima Puddle-Duck. Hawkshead, whose grammar school was attended by Wordsworth, and Brantwood (on the east shores of Coniston Water), which was home to John Ruskin, are also worth visiting. There is also Cartmel to visit, a delightful historic village 2 miles away with picturesque inns, gourmet restaurant, medieval priory and quaint galleries. Hotel leisure facilities, beauty spas and two golf courses are all under 1 mile. Shops and restaurants 1/2 mile, pub 300 yards. Spacious living room with gas fire, patio doors and wooden floor. Spacious dining room with gas fire and wooden floor. Well-equipped farmhouse-style kitchen. Utility. Bathroom with shower attachment and toilet. Separate toilet. First floor: Three double bedrooms, one with 5ft bed and en-suite shower room with bidet and toilet. Single bedroom with additional pull-out single.
