Rent House Queen Pitchapple Lake District
Holiday Home Rental Description
Once the dwelling of the estate’s groundskeeper, this Lake District property has been refurbished to become a contemporary countryside getaway.
Inside, the design could definitely be described as minimalist, with walls painted in soothing whites adorned only by a few well-chosen pieces of artwork, a sleek kitchen and a preference for simple wooden furnishings. The wood-burning fireplace situated in an archway between the living room and dining area is sure to keep the whole ground floor warm and toasty.
But what about during those balmy months in which a roaring fire isn’t necessary? The alfresco dining table on the terrace is sure to see some use during this time, as is the barbecue. You’ll probably want to work up an appetite first, however, and there’s an onsite heated swimming pool and an activity centre offering everything from watersports, 4×4 off-road driving, clay pigeon shooting, archery, axe-throwing or bushcraft.
If you’re after something a little more sedate, there are plenty of walking routes that start from the site, including one to the cute village of Hawkshead about ninety minutes away on foot.
