A charming bungalow for 2 with beautiful lake views in an unbeatable location on the shore of Lake Windermere.
Made for two, this delightful bungalow boasts an incredible location within Windermere Village. With breath-taking lake views from the cottage itself and shared access to the lake shore of Windermere, this cottage is a perfect Lakeland hideaway. The exclusive location, within the private grounds of the Priory Manor estate, offers exceptional peace and tranquillity, yet with the bustling shops, pubs, cafes and attractions of Windermere & Bowness within walking distance.
Windermere is the hub of public transport in the Lake District, with a train station and bus stops with routes to other major Lake's destinations within an easy walk of the cottage. A tree-lined footpath from the cottage leads to Lake Windermere shore, where guests at Priory Cottages have shared use of a private jetty, a paddle-boarder or wild-swimmers dream. Or you could simply enjoy relaxing on one of the lakeside benches and soaking up the outstanding views.
The areas surrounding Lake Windermere are some of the most picturesque in the Lake District, picture perfect cottages, dreamy landscapes and quaint villages not to mention home to some of the ever popular Lake District hotspots. Loved by Beatrix Potter, it's not hard to fall in love with the area including the villages of Troutbeck, Hawkshead and the surrounding hamlets of High Wray, Near Sawrey and Far Sawrey.
The town of Windermere and the neighbouring Bowness-on-Windermere offers visitors a plethora of activities and past times to enjoy. Take a seat on board Windermere Lake Cruises and explore England's largest lake or simply meander around the independent gift shops and cafes. Enjoy a leisurely stroll to the stunning viewpoint at Orrest Head or indulge in your favourite tipple at one of the many pubs and bars the two neighbouring villages have to offer.
No car? No problem. Windermere Village is the hub of local public transport around the Lakes with a train station and several bus routes which ferry passengers to various destinations around the Lake District. You can also take a pleasant cruise along the lake to Ambleside and other locations.
At the southern tip of Lake Windermere lies the quaint hamlet of Lakeside which as the name suggests enjoys open access to the lake shore. A favourite for families looking to explore, nearby attractions include the Aquarium of the Lakes, the Lakeland Motor Museum, the Lakeside & Haverthwaite Steam Railway & Fell Foot Park.
