The detail

This gorgeous converted barn for two is spacious, luxurious and utterly charming. With Scandinavian style open plan living, wonderful attention to detail and a beguiling garden with riverside seating, it's the perfect escape for couples seeking a peaceful retreat in beautiful surroundings.

The open plan living area is a great place to drop your bags and pour a celebratory welcome drink. The room is flooded with light thanks to the floor to ceiling gable end bi-fold doors, and as you settle in you can enjoy the view of the stunning garden and river. A cosy corner sofa, deep leather armchair, fluffy rug, stylish art and toasty wood burner make this space feel like home from home. Settle in and watch a movie or just relax with snacks and drinks and marvel at your surroundings.

The kitchen is sleek, modern, stylish and fully equipped for cooking romantic meals for two to be enjoyed at the dining table by the riverside window. On warm evenings the stable door leads straight out onto the alfresco dining patio where you can while away the evening by candlelight. After dinner you might like to take your coffee down to the bench by the river and stargaze before bed.

When it's time to sleep, the luxurious bedroom offers everything you could need for a restful night. High quality Egyptian linens and plush pillows will envelope you and when you wake you can laze in bed with the built-in surround sound Sonos and Sky TV to entertain you.

Rise in the morning and refresh yourself in the fabulous concrete ensuite beneath the rainfall shower, whilst your towel and robe keep warm and fluffy on the heated towel rails. Underfloor heating will take care of your toes!

Head to the kitchen for the first cup of coffee and if the weather is clement stroll down to the bench by the river and sit in peaceful tranquility with the sun on your face. The patio is perfect for alfresco dining and if its a little chilly you can light the outdoor wood burner and settle at the big table under cover in great comfort.

When it's time to explore there are plenty of lovely pubs within walking distance including the award-winning Mason Arms at Strawberry Bank, only 400m away, and the cosy Hare & Hounds only 150m away! Fine dining can be enjoyed at Simon Rogan's iconic 'L'Enclume' or the Gilpin Spice (you may have seen it on the 'Great British Menu' TV show).

For days out you can hire a boat (rowing or power) and explore the lake. Or simply take a cruise on one of the elegant Lake Windermere Steamers, a charming way to see the area.
