Garden-Facing Five Bedroom Villa in Windermere

Set in a peaceful and sought-after location near the shores of Lake Windermere, Watermead offers generous living space and beautiful surroundings, making it an ideal base for families and groups exploring the South Lakes. The house is arranged across two floors and offers five comfortable bedrooms, each featuring a luxury Harrison Spinks mattress designed for rest and relaxation. Four bedrooms are located on the upper floor, including the principal bedroom with its own en suite shower room. The remaining upstairs bedrooms are served by a spacious family bathroom with both a bath and a separate shower. A fifth bedroom is located on the ground floor, providing a convenient option for guests who prefer easier access without stairs. A ground-floor shower room and WC are also located nearby. The living areas provide plenty of space for relaxing and socialising. A cosy sitting room with a wood-burning fireplace creates a warm focal point during cooler months, while additional living and dining spaces allow the whole group to gather comfortably after a day exploring the Lake District. The kitchen is fully equipped for effortless self-catering, featuring an oven, hob, fridge freezer, dishwasher, microwave, coffee machine, air fryer and a comprehensive range of cookware and utensils. A separate utility room houses the washing machine and tumble dryer, ideal for longer stays or active days outdoors. Outside, Watermead truly comes into its own. The serene, private landscaped grounds offer a variety of beautifully considered spaces, from a lake viewing platform and elevated decking with far reaching views, to a flat dining terrace complete with barbecue for relaxed outdoor entertaining. The private hot tub provides a tranquil place to unwind beneath open skies after a day on the fells or by the lake. As the grounds are naturally landscaped with some changes in level, guests are asked to take care when moving around outside and ensure children are supervised at all times.

Watermead is located in Troutbeck, a picturesque valley just a short distance from Windermere and Ambleside. This peaceful area is known for its traditional Lakeland farms, quiet country lanes and spectacular fell views. From the doorstep, you can access some of the Lake District’s most beautiful walking routes, including paths leading towards Wansfell Pike, Troutbeck Tongue and the surrounding fells. The nearby villages of Windermere, Bowness and Ambleside offer a wide range of restaurants, cafés, shops and attractions. Lake Windermere itself is only a short drive away, where visitors can enjoy boat trips, watersports and lakeside walks. The central Lakes are easily reached from Troutbeck, making it a perfect base for exploring the wider national park.
