Traditional Grade 2 listed cottage. Quiet area of central Windermere. Log stove

Santon Cottage is a Grade Two traditional Lakeland stone terraced cottage dating from 1840, located three minutes walk from Windermere train station and close to the village centre and its many amenities. It is in a very quiet secluded position.
Our cottage sleeps six comfortably (4 adults 2 children), and consists of three bedrooms.

The master bedroom has a large king size bed with ensuite (walk in shower, toilet and wash hand basin), wardrobe, dressing table and hairdryer and charging points.
The second bedroom has full size bunk beds, chest of drawers and mirror. A travel cot is stored under the bunk beds and a portable stair-gate is stored behind door.
The third bedroom, in the basement, has twin single beds accessed down characterful stone stairs. Open low beams add to the charm. There is a chest of drawers and charging points.
The bathroom has a bath with a shower, toilet and hand wash basin.
There is a cosy lounge, with a log burning stove, open beams, two and three seater settees, a smart TV and charging points.
The dining kitchen has original stone-flagged flooring and is well equipped with a rangemaster double oven cooker, dishwasher, microwave, fridge/freezer and an oak table with 6 chairs.
As well as a smart TV and Infinity Wifi, there is a wide selection of books and board games to help you unwind after a day exploring the Lakes or walking in the hills.
