Goody Raise

About this property

This outstanding property enjoys a magical setting close to the village of Grasmere. With contemporary styling and luxury furnishings throughout, an acre of gardens and even an external hot tub, Goody Raise certainly has the wow factor.

Grasmere is famous not only for its stunning views over Rydall and Loughrigg, but also for its connections with William Wordsworth who lived in Dove Cottage at the edge of the village.

Once inside, guests will be delighted by the comfortable and welcoming atmosphere, underpinned by the properties stunning refurbishment. The entrance hall leads to a useful utility area with plenty of room for storing and drying walking boots and outdoor clothing, and a downstairs cloakroom and shower. The open plan living area has superbly comfortable sofas clustered round the feature fireplace and large glass doors through to the glorious garden and highlighting the stunning views. The modern and stylish kitchen is a delight, and a separate garden room offers an alternative spot to sit and daydream.

Upstairs are the three stunning bedrooms, two king size with en-suites and a very grown-up twin with separate bathroom. All the bedrooms are beautifully presented with comfortable beds and magnificent views. Goody Raise is a very special property, perfect for a family celebration or memorable holiday.

Situated in the heart of the Lake District National Park is the lovely village of Grasmere, probably best known as the home of William Wordsworth, a place he once described as "The most loveliest spot that man hath found". Any visit to Grasmere needs to include The Grasmere Gingerbread shop, where the Wilson family have been making gingerbread for over 60 years. Also in the village are a number of shops, pubs, a church which dates back to the 13th century and Grasmere Lake, plus Grasmere Sports takes place every August, where you can watch participants compete in a variety of sports, including Cumberland Wrestling. Just five miles away is the town of Ambleside and Lake Winderemere where you will find shops, pubs, restaurants and the 17th century Bridge House, which is one of the most photographed buildings in the Lake District. Cruises, boat trips and watersports can all be enjoyed on Lake Windermere and the towns of Windermere and Keswick are also within driving distance. Grasmere is a wonderful base for your Lake District retreat.
