Description

Sleeps: 3 | Bedrooms: 1 | Bathrooms: 1 | Pets allowed: 2 | Changeover day: Fri

This modern first floor apartment, which has been converted from part of a grand stone-built cottage, is perfect for a country retreat in Loweswater. The apartment is set within mature landscaped grounds and offers superb views across the countryside towards Loweswater. Jose’s at The Grange, which is adjacent to the owners’ B & B, has been refurbished and newly listed for 2018 featuring a new kitchen and shower room. The open plan living area features a double sofa bed; the double bedroom has been lovingly decorated with neutral décor and is complemented with high quality furnishings to make your stay a comfortable one. Jose’s at The Grange is located just a short stroll from Loweswater Lake, nestled in a wooded valley in the Vale of Lorton, it is the first link in a chain of lakes including Crummock Water and Buttermere. It is a perfect location for walkers, cyclists and climbers who wish to explore the natural expanse of Lakeland scenery and some of Wainwright’s 214 peaks are within easy reach. Some of the lower fells include Low Fell, Blake Fell and Gavel Fell to the west, Melbreak to the south and some more challenging routes around Grasmoor (2,795 feet), to the east.

The area boasts beautiful flora and fauna as well as an abundance of wildlife including buzzards, kestrels, ospreys and of course red squirrels. A trip to Loweswater wouldn’t be the same without a visit to the local inn, famous for its great food and possibly even greater beer. Meals can be booked in the owner’s local country house by prior arrangement. The surrounding area has many attractions and places to visit. The popular town of Cockermouth is just 7 miles away.
