The Bield - Character Cottage with Hot Tub & Private Jetty, Windermere - Dog Friendly

Full of original character and quirky details, this charming cottage enjoys an exceptional position on the quieter side of Lake Windermere, with uninterrupted lake views. Far Sawrey is 1 mile away, Claife Heights 2.5 miles and Beatrix Potter’s Hill Top House just 1.5 miles. The historic village of Hawkshead is a 10-minute drive, while the nearby ferry provides easy access to Bowness-on-Windermere and Windermere. Lake cruises are another wonderful way to explore the surrounding scenery.

Inside, the cottage combines traditional charm with cosy and comfortable spaces. The first lounge features exposed stone walls, stone flooring and a wood burner, while the main lounge sits beneath a dramatic timber A-frame and opens onto a balcony overlooking the lake. The farmhouse-style kitchen leads to a conservatory-style dining room with panoramic views, while a utility room, shower room and WC add convenience. Three bedrooms include a king-size master with en-suite, a cabin-style twin and a double bedroom with an inset bath and separate WC.

Outside, the cottage benefits from private lake frontage and two attractive seating areas. The main terrace has outdoor dining, a seven-seater hot tub and stunning lake views, along with a private jetty for swimming, paddleboarding or launching a boat. A second garden area provides further seating overlooking the water. Private parking is available for three cars.
