Company information

I have been in the self-catering business for over 30 years and along with my dedicated team offer quality homes in the lake district for guests to enjoy and relax in . When I visit Rowan cottage I think there is nothing better than a local walk, followed by a drink in the Hole in t wall inn and a meal at the house of Sian . Bring your own streaming device for an evening of films and put some logs on he fire.......Bliss

Property information

The cottage offers a small private rear garden with furniture for four, log burning stove, WiFi and super walks nearby.. Oh and the bath is great after a long day on the fells!

Neighbourhood information

The cottage is located on a quiet dead end street just off the main road there is little noise from either traffic or passers by. There is permit parking right outside and a disc is provided. Although you do not need a car as Windermere railway station is just a short taxi ride away. This is a very central location and you are able to walk easily to all the shops , restaurants and boat trips.
