  • A stylish and relaxing first-floor family apartment
  • Set in a peaceful village a couple of miles from the Cumbria coast
  • Perfect for discovering the Cartmel peninsula
Property code: SZ539

Providing spacious accommodation for up to four guests, this light and friendly apartment makes a great base for families and couples exploring the beautiful countryside of the southern Lake District.

This first-floor apartment is set in the quiet village of Lindale. It’s a spacious base for a couple or small family plus one hound looking to explore Lake Windermere, the Cumbrian coastline, and Morecambe Bay. A sense of tranquillity sweeps through this light-drenched rural retreat, perfect for the most relaxing of getaways.

Stairs lead up to the entrance, and inside white tones and large windows create a soothing effect. After a day of exploring, relax on one of the sofas in the lounge and unwind while Fido snoozes by the wood burner. When it’s time to eat, a stylish kitchen and dining area await. Rustle up a delicious family meal and then serve it at the table overlooked by pretty dual-aspect windows. There’s room in the kitchen to dish up a meal for Fido too. When it’s time for bed, pad through to the king-size or twin bedroom. With nothing to disturb you, you can be sure of a peaceful night’s sleep. In the morning, start the day with a refreshing shower before stepping outside to the patio area. While you breathe in the fresh country air, Fido can stretch his legs in the enclosed gravelled garden.

The Edwardian seaside retreat of Grange-over-Sands (2 miles) is good for morning walks along the long promenade and offers up splendid views over Morecambe Bay. For longer walks that will really set tails wagging, head to Windermere (6 miles) and let your pup scamper over hills and mountains. You can also take your well-behaved hound on a boat trip across the lake. Further delights can be found at Arnside and Silverdale (10 miles), an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and the lakeshore Fell Foot Park (5.5 miles) where your hound can enjoy splashing in the water.

  • 2 bedrooms – 1 king-size, 1 twin which can be made up as a king-size on request (Request must be made at time of booking less than 7 days notice may incur additional charges)

Excellent apartment, clean, modern and spacious. Very well equipped, a suggestion would be to have a full length mirror perhaps? Beautiful kitchen to cook in, comfortable lounge and excellent shower. Lindale itself is a perfect place to travel from either to the North Lakes, or across to Arnside, and is close to Cartmel and Grange over Sands too.

We stayed as a family of 4 over Christmas with our little dog. The cottage is very nicely decorated and has a nice homely feel about it. It is set in a lovely little village and is in a good location for exploring the lakes and endless walks that are a short drive away. The scenery is stunning! The cottage was well equipped although theres no tumblRead moree dryer and no iron so worth bearing this in mind. We all really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend. Hide

A lovely cottage in a beautiful, peaceful area with great access to surrounding towns/areas. Beds were very comfortable and the cottage had most things we needed to make our stay enjoyable. The Royal Oak pub is less than a 5 minute walk and offers great food.

There is no heating in the bathroom. If it is wet weather, the facility to dry clothing and towels efficiently is not available at this cotttage as main heating is dimplex so unsafe to dry on. Towel holder in bathroom is not heated.

We really enjoyed our stay and the flat was lovely and cosy, and in a great location for getting to pretty much anywhere of the lakes. The flat itself is a great size and has all the amenities you could need to stay. we walked to Grange - over - sands which took about 45 mins and was a very good 'beginner' walk to do. We also travelled to other parRead morets of the lakes and all were very easy to get from Lindale. the local pub was excellent but would recommend trying to book. Hide

Very comfortable, well presented and clean cottage in quiet location. We would recommend the name be added to door of property to assist in first locating it! Unlike previous reviewers who had limited WiFi access, we had none at all despite holidaycottages best endeavours to resolve this issue with the owner.
