About this property

Underheron is located a short stroll from the picturesque village of Grasmere.

Set in large, secluded gardens this beautiful property has an abundance of windows and fresh, modern decor.

Follow steps up and into a hallway where you’ll find space for walking boots and coats. A spacious kitchen with TV and breakfast island is perfect for preparing family meals. Whilst the bright and airy living room comes complete with sumptuous leather sofas and TV. Friends and family will enjoy evening meals around a spacious dining table in this open plan living space. A highlight of this self-catering property is the tranquil sunroom with fabulous views across the fellside garden. The ground floor also contains two bedrooms; a master king-size en-suite with patio door and a comfortable twin bedroom alongside a shower room with walk-in shower.

Upstairs you’ll discover two further bedrooms; a large double bedroom and a twin bedroom with the convenience of a second shower room with large walk in shower, basin and WC.

Relax in mature gardens, on a furnished patio that seats eight. Listen to the sounds of a small waterfall and if you’re lucky you’ll spot a deer and a red squirrel or two. Private parking is conveniently provided for two cars.

Grasmere is a superb destination for a relaxing Lake District getaway. Hire a rowing boat from Faryland and spend a morning gliding across the water. Enjoy tea and cake in the many pretty coffee shops, browse the independent book shop and Heaton Cooper Art Studio and dine in one of the many great restaurants. Literary lovers flock to Grasmere as it is home to Dove Cottage and the Wordsworth museum. For a great family walk you can head to the beautiful Easdale Tarn or take a steep but short climb to Helm Crag for views across the Lake and beyond.

A short drive will bring you to the nearby villages of Ambleside, Hawkshead and Windermere.

Gather your friends and family and head to Underheron for a relaxing and sociable self-catering getaway in one of the Lake District’s prettiest areas.

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.

    The decor and furnishings are beautiful and it was very much home from home. The only minor issues were the fact no oven gloves were provided-never experienced that before in a rental home and surely it’s a safety issue not to provide them? Also we couldn’t get the light to switch off in the upstairs bathroom.

    Everything was perfect other than the dishwasher breaking (didn’t really want to spend my holiday washing up) but these things happen! Someone did contact and come to look very quickly. We would definitely recommend and we will be back!

    The owners do really need to buy some new frying pans - the ones there have lost their coatings and have got a lot worse since we last stayed. They only cost like £ 20 or 30 … The front door lock remains an issue .. I have sharpened all the knives as they were dangerously blunt. Otherwise we had a lovely stay. This is is hopefully constructive and not negative. With Best Wishes Chris
