“This is a lovely cosy property in an ideal location, for us.”

Easy access to various walks. Cannot fault in any way. Nice to be able to use associated grounds with views overlooking the Lake & distant fells. Would definitely return.

“The location of the cottage with direct access to both lakeside and mountain walks was a bonus.”

Spacious accommodation with parking right outside. Well equipped and we will certainly stay there again

“Excellent directions to property.”

Clear instructions in house about how to use appliances/heating. Good facilities - had everything we needed. Lovely location within easy walking distance of the village.

“Personal touches by owner were very much appreciated during this Christmas stay, and it was nice to see this level of attention to detail.”

It really added to the magic of our first Christmas in the Lakes.

“This was a small but very comfortable apartment in a beautiful location.”

It was a little difficult to find, but due to horrendous traffic problems on the M6 we didn't arrive until midnight. There are, however, great walks right from the garden gate and it's possible to walk into Grasmere itself. At the bottom of the hill on which the apartment is sited is Dove Cottage which was the home of poet William Wordsworth.

“An absolutely wonderful apartment.”

Spotless, well equipped and very comfortable. All the little touches of home comfort made it a really lovely place to stay. Home from home.

“From the village it's a steep walk up to the property, the views from the terrace make up for that.”

The property

Grasmere within 1 mile.

A perfect romantic retreat, this ground floor apartment within a mile of Grasmere is one of nine properties set in a former gentleman's residence, above the village and nestling on the slopes of Rydal Fell, with extensive shared grounds overlooking Grasmere Lake, an ideal place to enjoy the stunning scenery and amazing sunsets.

Thoughtfully appointed throughout to provide spacious contemporary accommodation, this self-catering apartment is perfect for anyone wishing to enjoy time together in one of the most beautiful parts of the country.

With an abundance of wildlife to be spotted, including birds, badgers, red squirrels and deer, this really is an idyllic haven from which to enjoy this beautiful part of the Lake District.

With stunning walks from the door including the well-known Coffin Trail around Grasmere and Rydal Water, you are ideally placed for the more ambitious Fairfield Horseshoe, while Grasmere village is just a short walk and has a wealth of shops, cafes, galleries and pubs, as well as the famous Grasmere Gingerbread shop.

A walk around Grasmere Lake is a must, with the beautiful scenery inspiring poets and artists for hundreds of years.

With such an amazing landscape to enjoy there is very little reason to get in the car, but if you do, just a short drive away is the bustling town of Ambleside, set on the shores of Lake Windermere.

From Ambleside you can travel on to the pretty Lakeland villages of Hawkshead, Elterwater and Chapel Stile.

This apartment makes a perfect escape at any time of the year.

About the location

GRASMERE

Ambleside 5 miles; Windermere 9 miles; Keswick 13 miles.

Situated in the heart of the Lake District National Park is the lovely village of Grasmere, probably best known as the home of William Wordsworth, a place he once described as "The most loveliest spot that man hath found". Any visit to Grasmere needs to include The Grasmere Gingerbread shop, where the Wilson family have been making gingerbread for over 60 years. Also in the village are a number of shops, pubs, a church which dates back to the 13th century and Grasmere Lake, plus Grasmere Sports takes place every August, where you can watch participants compete in a variety of sports, including Cumberland Wrestling. Just five miles away is the town of Ambleside and Lake Winderemere where you will find shops, pubs, restaurants and the 17th century Bridge House, which is one of the most photographed buildings in the Lake District. Cruises, boat trips and watersports can all be enjoyed on Lake Windermere and the towns of Windermere and Keswick are also within driving distance. Grasmere is a wonderful base for your Lake District retreat.
