Tucked into peaceful woodland near Bowness-on-Windermere, this cabin is the kind of place where a day on the fells ends in a hot tub beneath fairy lights – and feels all the better for it. The single-level layout keeps things easy, the main bedroom is cosy, and the deck draws you outside whatever the weather. Lakeside cafes, restaurants, and boat trips are a short drive away, but with a private garden this peaceful, you may not be in any hurry to leave.

Home truths
Due to this home's location, we recommend having a car to get the most out of your stay. There’s free parking on the driveway.
It's worth noting the kitchen is better suited to prepping drinks and lighter bites. There is no oven here.
The lodge overlooks the neighbouring Hideaway at Higher Longtail, so you won't have a fully private garden outlook. You also won't have access to the overlooked garden next door – only your own patio and garden area.

Local guide
About The Lake District
Poets and novelists have often escaped to the Lake District for a spot of inspiration. Famously, Wordsworth pondered about daffodils and clouds during his time here. The undulating hills are tracked with drystone walls while sheep graze, and farmsteads enjoy untouched beauty for miles around. England’s biggest lake, Windermere, cuts through a valley, sleek as glass and hosts a litany of cosy-pub-filled towns and water sports venues along its shores....
