"Perfect Cumbrian holiday base with stunning lake and mountain views"
Overview
Occupying an elevated place on the edge of Bassenthwaite Village, Holly Bank commands a breath-taking panoramic view taking in Skiddaw, Sale Fell, Lords Seat and the Borrowdale peaks. Recently renovated and refurbished, it sits in two acres of grounds with woodland, summer house, lawn, stream and – birdwatchers note – is close to an osprey nesting site. Ideal for exploring Cumbria.

About the area
Cumbria's rugged yet beautiful landscape is best known for the Lake District National Park that sits within its boundaries. It’s famous for Lake Windermere, England’s largest lake, and Derwent Water, ‘Queen of the English Lakes', but other lesser-known areas in the south, such as the Lune Valley and the coastal towns, are secret gems of wide cobbled streets and rolling hills
