This home is a superb base for a family wanting to explore the Lake District while staying in style. It’s been lovingly renovated and redecorated, shaped into a calming, welcoming home-from-home. It has the feel of a traditional cosy cottage but all the modern amenities you might want for a stress-free stay. There’s a patio outside and a home cinema, so little ones will be happy. We think grown-ups will enjoy the elegant kitchen and dining space, as well as the deep bathtub – perfect after a day of hiking. The home is in the quaint village of Newton-in-Cartmel, surrounded by rolling hills and scenic countryside. What more could you hope for?
