"Low Fell" is beautifully decorated and maintained, yet still manages to retain the type of relaxed, friendly and very welcoming atmosphere that emanates naturally from a home - but not necessarily from a "guest house".

Originally built as a gentleman's residence in 1905 from Lakeland stone, "Low Fell" nestles peacefully and privately behind a high wall - set well back from the minor B road - in an acre of lovely wooded garden and looking south and west towards the lake.

On warmer days with windows and doors flung open, all you will be able to hear is bird song, church bells and the occasional clank of a distant ferry chain on the lakeshore.

On summer mornings there's nothing nicer than an early morning stroll either to the lakeshore (Windermere at peace and in the cool early morning mist is enough to gladden any heart) to the village for a newspaper, or to the top of the fell behind the house where the sight of the early morning sun on a distant mountain will stay in your memory for a long time.

On cooler days snuggle up in a squashy sofa next to the fire with a glass of wine, or a cup of tea and a chocolate biscuit or two - and read more about this glorious and spectacularly beautiful part of the world in which we're so fortunate to live. We have lots of books and maps and you will be most welcome to borrow any or all of them.

We have lived in the lake district for most of our lives and are more than happy to help you to plan walks, or days out by car, bus, boat or bike. We know the most peaceful places to go - and we know the nicest restaurants and the best pubs!
