Escape the everyday and head to the Lake District National Park, where this impressive three-bedroom property awaits, ready to host a family or group of friends in the vibrant hamlet of Skelwith Bridge. This tiny hamlet offers a truly rural setting, home to Skelwith Force waterfall and a wonderful riverside cafe that draws visitors from miles around (both within 0.5 miles). The mystical River Brathay flows through the hamlet, providing an effortless riverside route for admiring the area's scenery and wildlife. Dramatic local viewpoints include Cathedral Cavern (2.5 miles), Tarn Hows (3.5 miles) and, of course, the mighty Lake Windermere (2.5 miles). The towns of Ambleside (2.5 miles) and Windermere (6.5 miles) are also within easy reach, perfect for those seeking busier centres with pubs, cafes and restaurants for quality refreshment. You can also explore the spectacular William Wordsworth country from Grasmere, just 3.5 miles away.


Immaculately presented with stylish interiors, light and airy decor, and a careful preservation of the property's original character, this handsome holiday home is sure to impress. Step inside to find slate flooring with underfloor heating in the lounge-come-dining room, along with a wood burner nestled into the hearth at one side. An L-shaped sofa invites you to sink in, while a TV/DVD player provides evening entertainment. Adjacent to this space, a well-appointed and thoughtfully designed kitchen features everything you need to cater for the group. Cottage-style stairs lead to the bedrooms on the first and second floors. On the first floor, two delightful double bedrooms feature antique styling and plenty of natural light. On the second floor, a twin bedroom sits beneath the trusses, with sloped ceilings and skylights offering views across the hamlet rooftops. Back on the first floor, the family bathroom includes both a bath and a shower, perfect for a relaxing soak after a day of hiking.


At the front of the property, enjoy the sound of the river from the charming outdoor seating area. A rattan dining set provides the perfect spot for a morning coffee or evening sundowner, whether planning the day ahead or reminiscing about your adventures. To the rear of the property, private parking is available for two small cars.
