Further details
If you have not visited the Lake District before, or for some time, you cannot fail to be impressed with the quality of the eating establishments in the area. Lakeside village is home to the fantastic Lakeside Hotel, with several outstanding eating areas, including traditional pub, conservatory overlooking the lake, brasserie and more formal restaurant. Spa treatments available. Newby Bridge (less than 1 mile or catch the steam train) is home to another great hotel (with marina) serving good bar food & restaurant. Short drive to renowned gastro-pubs like The Masons Arms at Gummers How, and the now infamous Drunken Duck at Barngates. We love the Tower Bank Arms at Sawrey, just a 5 min beautiful drive. Families are most welcome practically everywhere. Farm shop on shores of unspoilt Esthwaite Water (original home of Beatrix Potter's Jeremy Fisher) 5 min drive. We are in an unspoilt location, yet ideally placed to explore the delights of the Lakes and fells - walks to suit all levels of ability and enthusiasm! Very family friendly - all ground floor accommodation, all mod cons to ensure you have a relaxing stay. Lakeside is also home to the Lakeside to Haverthwaite steam train, and also the Aquarium of the Lakes. The lake cruisers run from Lakeside pier to Fell Foot Park and Bowness, then Ambleside and Sawrey. Famous Hawkshead 7 mile scenic drive up west side of Lake Windermere - stop at Near Sawrey, home to Beatrix Potter, on the way. Spot the red squirrel and deer in the woodland behind our cottage. ... and for something completely different, why not take a look at our luxury apartment in beautiful Cala Fornells, Mallorca - Ref B952 on Owners Direct.
