Burrow Cottage, Bowness-on-Windermere, Cumbria - Sleeps 2

Romantic cottage for 2 near to Lake Windermere & Bowness. Beams, open fire, sun terrace & parking.

This cosy Lake District cottage was originally a Lakeland forester’s home, and dates back to 1640. It has a picture postcard white exterior, deep-silled cottage windows, log burner and oak beams. You’ll also enjoy the outdoor spaces – 2 pleasant patio areas to the front and rear. Bowness village is only a few miles away (just follow the lakeside road north past "Millionaires' Row") and for a special treat visit one of our favourite Lake District country pubs, the Mason's Arms.

It's only a short drive away at Bowland Bridge.Only a few miles from Bowness Bay on the eastern shores of Lake Windermere, Burrow Cottage is close by the main lake shore road A592, which runs the full length of Lake Windermere from Newby Bridge and Lakeside, to Bowness and north to Ambleside - a journey you can also take on a Lake Windermere Cruise.

For shopping, dining and evenings out, Bowness is your first call. You'll find plenty of fantastic Lakeland pubs (where yacht owners and boat-enthusiasts recap their days!) a range of excellent restaurants and several lively bars. The Royalty Cinema provides live entertainment, and the Old Laundry Theatre is well worth a check.

The National Trust's Fell Foot Park sits right on the lakeshore, and head over Cartmel Fell for an easy walk up Gummers How for spectacular views of Lake Windermere. Within ten minutes drive you can find Windermere golf club and the fabulous arts and crafts house, Blackwell. Alternatively leave the car and take a walk up Moor How, the perfect short walk to watch the sunset over Langdale Pikes.
