Charm and character are prevalent in every corner of this majestic property, with its Grade II-listing ensuring the careful preservation and considered restoration of the hall. Old blends with new, to create an enchanting sequence of bedrooms, living spaces and entertaining rooms, catering to groups of 36 people with ease. Charming staircases and grand hallways lead you between the jazzy cocktail bar, relaxed TV lounge, sophisticated library, cinema room and games room in the basement. There are so many nooks and crannies to explore, even including a chill-out room just for the children!
There is no need to find any dispute between the bedrooms, with eighteen gorgeous rooms, including two self-contained apartments. These sumptuous, beautifully presented bedrooms with William Morris wallpaper, crystal chandeliers and luxurious king-size beds are perhaps one of the highlights of a stay at the hall. The designer has taken inspiration from Lakeland poets, as well the elegant shaker style to combine romance, charm, and elegance into every corner of each room. The master suite is perhaps in another league, with its four-poster bed, separate seating area and roll-top bath.
Of course, in a location like this, with all the natural beauty of Lake Windermere on your doorstep, the outside space must be as captivating as the interior. The large private garden offers beautiful views across the lake. The holiday park also boasts a fine dining restaurant and cocktail bar.
With the Lake Distract stretching out around you, there are endless sights to see and places to visit. From outstanding golf courses to the world of Beatrix Potter, there is a magic to the Lakes that must be experienced. Whether you want to explore pretty towns and villages, spend the days hiking or head on a gastronomy trail to visit some of the country’s top restaurants; there is something for everyone.
- Among the 18 bedrooms, there are two separate apartments, these are great for parents with young children or anyone that needs their own private space within the mansion
- With train stations dotted around the Lake District, including one in nearby Windermere, you can access the hall by public transport
- For large groups, we would recommend pre-booking any meals out before your stay, as the Lakes can get busy in peak times
