Hollywood

About this property

Nestled in the popular town of Windermere in Cumbria, is this fantastic end-terrace, Victorian property, Hollywood. Boasting a superb location within the Lake District National Park, in the heart of Windermere, and just moments away from the famous Lake Windermere, Hollywood is a wonderful dwelling for couples or a family of 11 who are looking to explore the Lakes. Park in one of the three designated parking spaces, before venturing inside the lovely porch area of your new home-from-home. Be welcomed into a sumptuous sitting room, where velvet blue sofas entice you to unwind in front of the flatscreen TV as you sip your favourite tipple.

After a moment of well-deserved relaxation, progress to the impressive kitchen/diner, where all the appliances a budding chef needs are available, including an impressive range cooker and a large fridge. Once the designated chef has made a tasty meal, it can be enjoyed at the dining table, which seats all the family, and also offers views of another TV; perfect for a bit of post-dinner unwinding. On the first floor you will discover, four beautifully decorated bedrooms, a king-size with its own bathroom, a double, a zip/linked super-king-size and a single, all of which have a shower room, ideal for those who prefer a little more privacy.

Climb the stairs again to find two more delightful doubles, both of which also boast en-suites. All the rooms are fully equipped with complimentary toiletries, Egyptian cotton bedding, hair dryers, and a radio alarm clock for those wanting to rise early to explore. The property also enjoys its own outdoor spaces, the first being a front enclosed garden, where you can sit out with a cold beverage in the warmer months, whilst the rear garden comprises astro-turf and its own patio area, where you can enjoy a morning cup of steaming coffee before heading out.
