Wansfell

This stylish ground floor apartment is finished to a lovely standard and is surrounded by fields with views of the Lakeland fells. Wansfell, which was previously the Borrans Park Hotel, is a great choice for for four people wishing to explore this wonderful part of Cumbria. Located up a private drive in a peaceful position, you enter through the private entrance into a large dining area with an oak dining table and four chairs, perfect for those formal mealtime moments with one another. Adjacent is the fitted kitchen, equipped with all the essentials including an electric oven and gas hob, fridge and freezer, dishwasher and an assortment of utensils and crockery needed for a short break. Head into the spacious sitting room to put your feet up, with two plush sofas and a TV with Xbox for entertainment, plus the wall-mounted electric fire will come in handy during those colder months. The main bedroom has a luxurious feel with a king-size oak bed and walk-in wardrobe with a wall mounted 19 inch LCD TV, complemented by the fully tiled en-suite bathroom which includes a large cubical shower. In the second bedroom there is a zip/link bed which can be either a super king-size or a twin which also offers a contemporary en-suite bathroom with bath and shower over, so you can decide best how to prepare for the day. Grab your refreshing beverage of choice and take a seat in the patio garden, including a table and four chairs for outside dining and two benches for relaxing and watching the sun go down after a tough day on the fells. There are plenty of walks from the door including Todd Craig and the Fairfield Horseshoe, along with cruises on the lake, visits to the cinema and mini golf. Take a night off cooking and book a table at one of the fine restaurants or pubs in Ambleside, including a modern British Michelin starred restaurant, The Old Stamp House, which is houses in the former office of William Wordsworth. At any time of year, a cruise from Waterhead up Lake Windermere on the Windermere Steamer is a beautiful way to appreciate the magnificent landscape. Stop off at Bowness-on-Windermere or continue down to Lakeside and visit the Lakes Aquaruim. A delightful base for a Lake District escape of any kind.
