About this property

Resting in a desirable location within the vibrant town of Windermere, reached down a private drive with just four cottages is this contemporary, mid-terrace cottage, providing a well situated base for a family trip to the Lake District National Park. 6 Knotts View has been lovingly restored by the owners, providing character with functionality throughout, serving as an excellent base for your Lakeland adventures. Look forward to settling down in the sitting room, complete with a sumptuous settee, two armchairs and an alluring open fire, creating a cosy ambiance to the room, plus a large wall-mounted Smart TV so you can continue your favourite shows while away. Show off your cooking skills and take advantage of the superb kitchen; here you can take advantage of a large ranger cooker and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer to help prepare some tasty meals, while the Belfast sink and dishwasher provides adequate washing facilities. The design of the kitchen is also worth mentioning, with sleek grey units, a white brick splash back and flagstone flooring all combining to form a modern setup for home-cooking. From the kitchen, take the stairs down to the basement, a wonderful space to entertain with bean bags and barrels, 65 inch Smart TV, plus a quirky Pac-Man arcade machine to have fun with. As the evening draws to a close, there are two wonderful bedrooms to choose from, including a king-size with en-suite shower and dressing room, and a twin, both elegantly finished with crisp white bed linen and soft carpets. There is also a gleaming bathroom where you can enjoy lazy soaks or refreshing rinses to prepare for the day. Step outside and enjoy your morning coffee from the shared courtyard, before strolling to a nearby convenience store to source some fresh orange juice and the ingredients for a hearty breakfast. If you’d rather not cook, Windermere is filled with superb eateries ranging from fine dining restaurants to friendly pubs, as well as boasting several cafés and ice cream shops. The town is home to the World of Beatrix Potter attraction, a must-visit for any literary lover, as well as the glistening waters of Lake Windermere, ideal for lake cruises, watersports, fishing and peaceful walking trails. Venture out to Wray Castle, renowned for its magnificent Gothic Revival Castle, climb Loughrigg Fell and explore Rydal Cave, or make your way through Grizedale Forest, packed with excellent cycling trails. With so much to do from this Lakeland cottage, make 6 Knotts View your next Cumbrian getaway.

Windermere is a lively town nestled in the heart of the Lake District National Park, lying beside the lake of the same name which has status as the largest body of water in England.

  • Mike

    Lovely wee cosy cottage with everything needed.

  • Peter

    The icing on the cake was the superbly-equipped kitchen, which meant that catering for Xmas dinner in an unfamiliar location was no hardship. The local railway station, pubs, cafes and a classy Booths supermarket are all within a few minutes walk. The craft beer delights of Hawkshead brewery and bar are a few miles drive away in Staveley village. Stairs may be a little steep for some and strange beds will always be..... well... 'strange beds' in our view. House central heating was very efficient but it was a bit too cold to have more than a passing glance down the stairs to the cellar games room. Overall, the place is a credit to its owners, who have clearly thrown some serious cash at this cottage.

    Walking distance to Windermere and plenary of walks close by. The cottage is well equipped and was spotless when we arrived and the open fire was absolutely fantastic feature we used daily. All the beds are comfy and bed lines lovely and crisp. We will be coming back soon.
