Graythwaite, situated in the picturesque region of Cumbria in the North of England, offers a stunning retreat for families or groups seeking a memorable getaway in the Lake District. Nestled within a sprawling 5000-acre private country estate, the location boasts a rich tapestry of lakes, forests, woodlands, and meadows. The charming courtyard, comprised of Victorian farm buildings dating back to 1890, has been lovingly refurbished to blend original character with modern comforts, making it an ideal base just a mile from the shores of Lake Windermere.
The first-floor apartment, part of a large barn conversion, provides a harmonious mix of traditional features and contemporary amenities. Guests are greeted by an open-plan sitting area that features a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The layout includes comfortable sofas for relaxation and a separate nook for reading, alongside a well-equipped kitchen and a raised dining area that enhances the communal experience. With four bright and comfortable bedrooms, the accommodation is designed to cater to the needs of up to eight guests, ensuring a cozy stay regardless of the season.
In addition to the spacious living arrangements, the apartment includes a bathroom with a bath and shower, as well as a separate shower room. Modern conveniences such as electric central heating, a woodburner, and a range of kitchen appliances—including an electric oven, microwave, and dishwasher—are provided to enhance the overall comfort. Guests can also enjoy access to shared facilities within the estate, including an indoor heated swimming pool, a table tennis room, a children's play area, and a 2.5-acre trout fishing lake, making it an excellent choice for families and active holidaymakers alike.
Pet owners will be pleased to know that two well-behaved dogs are welcome, allowing for a family-friendly atmosphere. The estate's location offers proximity to local landmarks such as Stott Park Bobbin Mill and Hill Top, along with various activities at nearby attractions like Lakeside Windermere Ferry Landing and Lakes Aquarium. With ample off-road parking and a shared patio equipped with furniture and a BBQ, guests can fully immerse themselves in the tranquil surroundings while enjoying the best of what the Lake District has to offer.
