Escape with your special someone to this stylish apartment sitting on the banks of River Leven. Sleeping two people in one bedroom and welcoming two canine companions, it’s an ideal accommodation choice for couples dreaming of a romantic break in the Lake District together. Spend a happy morning strolling through the village of Haverthwaite with your pups by your side and you’ll discover peaceful lanes, woodland trails and dog-friendly tearooms. In the evening, come home to your chic apartment and enjoy a relaxing al fresco dinner on the back terrace.

From your private parking spot, head up to your ground-floor apartment and step inside to be greeted by an inviting open-plan living/kitchen/dining area where a soothing neutral palette sets the tone for relaxed, modern living. Take a moment to appreciate the cutting edge contemporary styling in the living area, before you head to the sleek kitchen area to rustle up dinner for two. Share a romantic meal in the funky dining area, or head out onto the front terrace to dine alfresco. Afterwards, make your way to the back terrace to relax in the cocoon swing as you take in the river views and your pups sleep contentedly at your feet. At the end of the day, a delightful double bedroom with sumptuous furnishings awaits you. A smart bathroom with a bath and shower over completes the stylish layout.

Set off on a gentle walk at Fell Foot Park (2.5 miles) with your faithful friends by your side. Dogs are welcome everywhere except the children’s play area. Alternatively, head into the market town of Ulverston (7 miles) to admire its cobbled streets, browse the independent shops, or head off for walkies along the scenic Sir John Barrow Monument trail.

Beautifully presented apartment with a real attention to detail. Very comfortable, lovely location. The only thing missing was a cork screw but other than that it was perfect.
