Lake District & Cumbria

Heron Beck (Sleeps 10) 

Heron Beck

Heron Beck lies a ten minute drive west from the foot of Windermere, a large Lake District holiday home, offering the perfect retreat for large groups of family and friends to gather for reunion and celebration.
For me Heron Beck is a most interesting property, well deserving the five star award. Imaginative, with many delightful details, nooks and corners, all combining to make a fantastic home in which to spend a relaxing holiday in comfort.
Semi detatched, it is set amongst low fells, close to the quaint old town of Ulverston, with cobbled streets, shops, pubs and restaurants, and a twice weekly market.
Drive north and you come to Coniston water. Set off east, where a ten minute drive brings you Newby Bridge and Lakeside, wher you can catch a steamer for a trip on Windermere.

Tinkler Beck Farm (Sleeps 6) 

Tinkler Beck Farm

You will find few places that will give such a deep sense of the power and beauty of Lakelands landscape as the Tent Lodge Estate. Steeped in historical connections it has been home and inspiration to such poets, writers and artists as Turner, Arthur Ransome and Lord Alfred Tennyson.
Today the Estate offers a selection of Lake District holiday cottages to suit all party sizes, set in one of the finest locations in the central Lake District. Here, each cottage is a short distance from the private waters edge, where the view is filled by the high peaks of Coniston’s mountain range, reflected in deep waters.
The Estate lies at the north east head of Coniston Water, in the heart of the Lake District, the properties and grounds set a little above the lake, where a twenty acre meadow sweeps down to the waters edge.

Townson Ground House (Sleeps 14) 

Townson Ground House

Set in the heart of the lake district, the Townson Ground Estate lies near the north east shores of Coniston Water, offering easy access to the many areas of shoreline open to the the public, along with excellent walks and a nearby village.
Townson Ground lies at the north east head of Coniston Water, one of a group of six adjoining, individually owned houses and cottages.
The village of Coniston lies about a mile and half around the lake, offering shops, cafes and a number of good pubs serving locally brewed ale.
From the village, tracks lead up through the old coppermines valley and to the foot of Coniston Old Man, where the hearty can make an attempt to the 2635 ft summit and view never to be forgotten.
At the boating centre you can hire rowing, sailing and little electric power boats, setting off to explore the shoreline and bays.
