The property

Beautifully set in a wild and wonderful setting just south of Coniston lies Bracken Ground, a truly luxurious retreat for family and friendly gatherings in the Lake District. Sat alongside a meandering stream, surrounded by 7 acres of natural grounds with a private outdoor hot tub and sauna, this is the perfect Lake District base.

A large private drive leads you up to the house, enter through the large porch and into a large open plan sitting room with dining area with double French doors leading out to the garden and a woodburning stove for those cosy Autumn evenings. There are 5 luxury bedrooms for you and yours to spread out and relax in, with a beautiful master suite with en-suite shower room, bay window and sitting area. Back outside, there’s plenty of space for everyone to explore, and if you’re lucky, you may see some of the local wildlife, such as deer, badgers or foxes. There is a wood-built barrel sauna and hot tub to unwind.

Nearby Torver and Coniston offer country pubs and plenty of Lake District walking routes. The fine market town of Ulverston is also just 7 miles away, a labyrinth of cobbled streets, independent shops and some excellent eateries. It is also the birthplace of Stan Laurel and home to the world’s only Laurel and Hardy museum.

Perfectly located for discovering some of the less-trodden areas of the Lake District, Bracken Ground is a magical base for a break any time of the year.

Bracken Ground is ideal for extended family and friends, offering 7 acres of private grounds, a sauna and hot tub, and parking for up to 10 cars. Hawkshead 9.6 miles; Ambleside 14.7 miles.
