Luxury cottages in Windermere

Windermere – a 10-mile stretch of shimmering water, flanked by rolling greenery – is England’s largest natural lake: one mile wide, 220 feet deep. Kayakers, paddleboarders, and canoeists glide across its surface while walkers venture onto the surrounding trails. Orrest Head offers a short yet rewarding ascent with sweeping views at its summit, while Brant Fell begins right from town, where you can enjoy Cumbrian sausages and hen’s eggs for breakfast before winding up tracks that unfold to panoramas across the lake and beyond.

Whether you're bringing the whole family, dogs included, or gathering friends for a walking adventure, our luxury homes in Windermere provide a peaceful retreat with nature on your doorstep. In our collection, there’s an old stone hunting lodge set amid six acres of private grounds, nestled along Windermere's serene southern shoreline, with only stags as neighbours. The library, with its crackling open fire, invites you to settle in with a whisky, surrounded by the landscape that inspired Beatrix Potter’s books.
