The moment you step into the apartment you are met with a light, clean, modern feel which instantly welcomes you. The living area is open-plan, making for an ideal social space for family or friends to talk, laugh, eat and drink whilst recanting the days’ adventures. There is also a balcony so you can enjoy some fresh air on warm summer evenings. The kitchen is well appointed with all the facilities you would expect from a modern apartment, and whether you are preparing a picnic or a 3-course meal, you have all the space and utensils you need. There is a comfortable seating area if you simply want to relax and enjoy your favourite TV programmes.
Backbarrow is a quiet village with a river running through it, there are walks from your doorstep and you are ideally placed with easy access to some fantastic attractions. A 5-minute drive and you are at the impressive Lake Windermere, one of the most famous lakes in the world, and if you drive a bit further on you soon arrive at the charming villages of Bowness and Windermere, a little further and Ambleside awaits.
You are spoilt for choice for activities in the area, how about a steam train ride, followed by a cruise across the lake, or visit the aquarium or various museums, including the Lakeland Motor Museum. The family might like to see animals from around the world at the South Lakes Safari Zoo, or visit the historic homes of Wordsworth and Beatrix Potter. If you are more active, there are a choice of water sports, including canoeing and paddleboarding, or maybe you enjoy walking, cycling or climbing. Fancy something a bit different, how about an escape room, segways or simply enjoying a Michelin Star meal? One thing is for certain, you won’t be bored!
