Biskey Burrow is just a short walk from the heart of Bowness, which is one of the most popular towns in South Lakeland. The bustling town, which is frequented by locals as well as tourists, has a great selection of individual and unique shops, as well as a wide variety of cafés, bars and restaurants. There is also an old fashioned cinema and The World of Beatrix Potter Attraction, which families with children will adore. The shores of Lake Windermere, which is the UK’s largest lake, is also within a 10-15 minute walk. From here, you can hire a boat or take a leisurely ride on one of the old steamers. You can also take a boat cruise to Ambleside, or to Lakeside, where you will find the Aquarium of the Lakes and the Lakeside-Haverthwaite Steam Railway.

The town of Windermere, which has a good sized supermarket, is approximately 1½ miles from Bowness. Windermere also has a train station with services to Kendal, Preston, Lancaster and Oxenholme. From Oxenholme, there are services to London, Manchester and Scotland, which makes this a very accessible location even for those who don’t want to bring their car. The surrounding fells offer plenty of walking, cycling and climbing opportunities, and thanks to the great road network, the whole of the stunning Lake District National Park is accessible, making Biskey Burrow the perfect base for your Lakeland adventure. Beach 15 miles. Shop, pub and restaurant 200 yards.

    An amazing use of space in this cottage and right in bowness centre!!!Clean and well equipped we had a fab time .

  • Confirmed Guest

    Great location, it’s a nice tidy cottage that could do with a little work. Downstairs bedroom door doesn’t fully open and the mattress is too hard to sleep on. More black bin bags need to be left behind for rubbish and the outside front could do with a clean from the bird mess and maybe a couple of potted plants.

  • Dawn Wilson

    Location of cottage and Bowness on Windemere were perfect. It was clean, great facilities and would stay again. One small thing the bedside lamp would be better by side of bed rather than at the foot of the bed, perhaps more sockets or an extension lead is needed. Mirrors in the bedroom would be useful. Parking can be limited.
