Seaside Rentals in Backbarrow

The Keeper

• 10 guests

• 5 bedrooms

Satterthwaite, Ambleside

Once the dwelling of the estate's groundskeeper, this Lake District property has been refurbished to become a contemporary countryside getaway. Inside, the design could definitely be described as minimalist, with walls painted in soothing whites adorned only by a few well-chosen pieces of artwork, a sleek kitchen and a preference for simple wooden furnishings.

Copper Kettle

• 5 guests

• 2 bedrooms

Blawith and Subberthwaite, Westmorland and Furness

Situated at the southern end of Coniston Water, the fifth largest of the lakes, this barn conversion blends contemporary comfort with period details. The farm is believed to date back to the 17th century, and the surrounding landscape hasn't changed much in all that time.

The Weeping Willows

• 6 guests

• 3 bedrooms

Lower Holker, England

In a charming spot in a tiny village on the little River Eea, this cosy home is a mix of character features and modern comforts. Overlooking the river, with an unusual layout and plenty of space, it's a great choice for a family but would just as readily suit a group of friends.
