Location Just a few miles to the east of Lake Windermere lies the secluded and unspoilt Winster Valley, a tranquil area of rolling hills, verdant fields and wooded slopes, perfect for escaping the pressure of modern life. A network of country lanes and paths wind their way through the valley, making this an ideal location for gentle walking, particularly if you stop off at one of the excellent traditional pubs en route! Both The Masons Arms and The Hare and Hounds in Bowland Bridge are only a short stroll away! In fact, there are several Pubs Restaurants in the area. There are 2 wonderful 15th Century Churches within walking distance and the towns of Kendal and Windermere are all within a short, scenic, drive. Although The Chase enjoys a magnificent, picturesque and peaceful location the M6 Motorway is within easy reach approximately a 25 30 minute drive.

Take the A5074 out of Bowness centre, travel through Winster, pass the Damson Dene Hotel and bear second right towards Bowland Bridge. On entering the hamlet bear left through the car park for the Hare and Hounds and the development is across to the back right hand side with designated parking to the side and further visitors parking on the lower level.

Property Overview The absolute epitome of a tranquil bolt hole. They really don t get much better than this. The sort of property you pop the key in the lock, open the door, breath in and instantly relax and smile knowing you get to spend time here with absolutely nothing to do heaven in the modern day busy world. This charming upside down Cottage is immaculately and tastefully presented throughout with luxurious touches such as the super surround sound system and the high quality modern Kitchen and Shower Room fittings. Low maintenance outdoor space and wonderful views over the valley from the Patio and Communal Grounds which is all surrounded by nature with some wonderful walks close by. The highly regarded country pubs restaurants The Hare and Hounds and The Masons Arms are on the door step to complete the picture we really cannot recommend The Chase highly enough.
