Camellia Cottage

Set in the quiet hamlet of Crook just a short drive from the shores of Lake Windermere and within relatively easy reach of the Central Lakes, the Cottage is a great location to relax or get active. Playing golf? A 9-hole course is available in the village and two 18-hole courses are nearby including the renowned Windermere Golf Club. You can also fish, cycle or simply walk from the door.

This is a lovely cottage that is bright and airy, well-appointed and a real treat. The open plan living space is focused around the dual aspect log burning stove, with comfy sofas and TV and on the other side of the wood-burner is the dining area. The modern kitchen has all the amenities required, and a spiral staircase that leads to the bedrooms, dressing room and bathroom on the first floor. You can relax in the delightful courtyard overlooked by the pretty cottage garden. To the front of the cottage and across the quiet lane the view is of the neighbouring orchard and the meadows beyond.

The village of Crook is on the edge of the Lyth Valley not far from Kendal and Windermere. The village of Staveley is a ten-minute drive away and there you will find a good range of shops and places to eat and gateway to the Kentmere Horseshoe and tarn. The Lyth Valley lies behind Cartmel Fell to the east of Lake Windermere and is known for its serene orchard landscapes, in particular damsons. There are a number of widely acclaimed Lake District gastropubs including The Punchbowl at Crosthwaite, The Black Labrador at Underbarrow, The Mason's Arms at Strawberry Bank and Hare and Hounds at Levens. The unspoilt medieval village of Cartmel on the fringe of the Lake District National Park - a twenty-minute drive from Camellia Cottage. A foodie’s paradise, with inns, shops and the internationally acclaimed Michelin Star restaurant, L'Enclume. There is also Cartmel Racecourse. Ten minutes west of the cottage the bustling village of Bowness sits on the shores of Lake Windermere and again offers a wealth of places to eat and drink, a great selection of shops and visitor attractions for all the family.
