The Groom's Cottage is located in an estate that is on the western shore of Lake Windermere. A moments drive from the tiny village of High Wray, or 10 minutes to the busy village of Hawkshead - perfect for supplies and a choice of 5 pubs and restaurants! The cottage has views of the lake & the hills beyond. Ambleside is just 4 miles away too, although it takes around 10-15 minutes drive, due to the cottage being rurally located, and accessed by the local single lane country roads. In winter in extreme weather, please allow longer due to the possibility of poorer condition.
The western shore is much quieter than the busy east side, but with a private jetty, why not bring or hire a boat to enjoy the lake and it's facilities by water. Cottage 60 metres for door to shore!
The cottage is located in a large estate and is in an unspoilt, woodland setting. A car is essential. If isolation, peace and quite, no cars, no people and rugged Lakeland countryside is to your liking, this is for you
