Gillercombe is a lovely, traditional Victorian stone-built mid-terrace cottage which lies conveniently between Bowness and Windermere in the Lake District. A perfect location for friends and families wishing to explore this beautiful part of the country. This spacious property set over four floors, is a comfortable, well-equipped and beautifully presented holiday home.
Guests will be certain to appreciate the generous and flexible accommodation. Inside this delightful cottage, you will be able to relax in the comfortable sitting room with ample seating and enjoy your meals in the attractive dining room. There is a well-equipped kitchen and a basement which houses the washing machine and dryer and extra fridge and freezer.
There are four bedrooms, two of which are on the first floor and they are a king-size double with en-suite and a twin bedroom, together with family bathroom. On the second floor there is a further double bedroom with en-suite shower and a 2' 6" twin bedroom, together with cloakroom. From the dining room there is a very useful boot room leading out to a well-lit rear enclosed patio with furniture which gets the sun during the day and is a lovely place to have breakfast or lunch outside on a warm day.
From here you can also access the off-road rear parking via steps up from the patio. There is also a small patio with furniture at the front of the property, where it is perfect to enjoy a glass of wine in the early evening sun. Just a short walk from the cottage are the vibrant towns of Bowness and Windermere, both with a vast array of shops, pubs and restaurants to suit all tastes, and even a cinema for entertainment.
Why not take a boat trip or hire a boat, both of which are available from Bowness, Brockhole, Ambleside and Lakeside? For an unforgettable holiday in the Lake District, choose Gillercombe.
