The Place - Loweswater

With an enviable location at the tip of Lake Loweswater, this traditional farmhouse offers a warm and welcoming base for visitors to the Lake District. Sleeping eight guests in four bedrooms and welcoming one lucky pup, this characterful property is ideal for family gatherings and special occasions with your loved ones. After adventurous days wandering fells, lakes and woodland, you’ll love returning here for lazy afternoons in the garden and sociable evenings in the property’s multiple living spaces.

Arranged over two storeys, this characterful farmhouse blends rustic charm with contemporary comforts. With bespoke handmade cabinets, a large range cooker and a Belfast sink, the farmhouse kitchen is a dream for chefs to prepare meals in. There are several options for gathering the pack to share good food and conversation with a breakfast table in the kitchen, a formal dining room and a patio terrace in the garden. Enjoy sociable evenings in the atmospheric lounge, which dates back to 1664, or challenge your travelling companions to a game in the barn, which offers table tennis, table football and a pool table. Enjoy summer evenings in the garden, gathering in the outdoor summer house or huddling around the fire pit with a glass of wine, stargazing in the uninterrupted night sky. As night falls, take your pick from four tastefully presented bedrooms – a king-size, double, twin and flexible zip-and-link room – to get cosy for a blissful night’s sleep. Two bathrooms and a utility room take care of all practicalities.
