About this property

5 Caxton House is a stylish ground-floor apartment resting in Windermere, Cumbria, offering inviting interiors, thoughtful features, and an excellent base for couples, friends, or a small family eager to explore the Lake District. Step inside to find an attractive living/dining area, where an electric fire stretches across the wall, creating a warm and welcoming focal point to unwind beside after days of adventure. Gather for film nights on the Smart TV or enjoy leisurely meals at the dining table before heading through to the well-equipped kitchen, thoughtfully arranged for your self-catering needs. The apartment features two beautifully presented bedrooms, comprising a super-king-size (zip/link, can be twin on request) and a king-size, each with its own Smart TV for relaxed mornings or wind-down evenings.

Completing the layout is a sleek shower room fitted with a walk-in shower, heated towel rail, basin, and WC. With off-road parking for one car and EV charging available, your arrival and excursions are made easy. Set close to the lakeshore, Flat 5 Caxton House places you within easy reach of some of Windermere’s most appealing spots. Start your day with a wander through Windermere village towards Orrest Head, where the short climb rewards you with sweeping views across the fells. Continue to Bowness-on-Windermere, home to the World of Beatrix Potter Attraction and a lively mix of cafés and independent shops, before strolling down to Bowness Bay to join a Windermere lake cruise.

For relaxed days on foot, follow the lakeside path towards Cockshott Point or explore the trails of Brant Fell for a scenic loop above the water. Evenings are easily spent discovering local favourites such as the bars and restaurants around Queen’s Square or enjoying a visit to the independent Royalty Cinema. With its setting near the lake and access to well-known viewpoints, attractions, and walking routes, 5 Caxton House offers an inviting base for exploring Windermere.

The twin towns of Bowness and Windermere are both vibrant, fun-filled places set within the splendid scenery of the Lake District.

The region also boasts many National Trust properties as well as a variety of water sports for those who prefer a more adrenaline-fuelled trip.
