About Rowan at Grasmere

Rowan at Grasmere is an exceptional Lake District holiday home with ample space for friends or family to enjoy the beauty of the Lakes in all seasons.  It features lounge and dining areas with incredible views, a well-appointed kitchen, and three beautiful ensuite bedrooms sleeping six.  Built on the site of a Victorian vine house in a sheltered garden, this south-facing holiday home offers a high standard of accommodation. Guests love the attention to detail and the quiet and private location yet close to the village centre.

Grasmere is gorgeous. You’ll find all amenities needed for a self catering holiday, whether cooking at home or dining out. Located just a short level walk to a small supermarket, shops, cafes, pubs, and restaurants with dining awards and a Michelin star. As lovely as the village is, the landscape makes it unique. The village and surroundings is best described by William Wordsworth “…the loveliest spot that man hath ever found.”

Cloistered by natural charm and scenery Rowan at Grasmere lies in the Vale of Grasmere. The nearby River Rothay forms a natural boundary as it flows towards Grasmere Lake. Views of fells and craggy outcrops rise sharply from the valley floor and drystone walls enclose sheep, fields and meadows and the exquisite Rowan at Grasmere.

The Lake District provides inspiration and renewal just as it did for William Wordsworth at Dove Cottage. He wrote “..Let Nature be your teacher.” For Rowan at Grasmere this starts on arrival and continues whether inside or outside on the terrace or in the garden. From the front door begin riverside, lakeside and meadow strolls and fell walks to Easedale Tarn, Alcock Tarn, Helm Crag and Loughrigg. Helvellyn Britain’s favourite mountain is close by. Further afield at Ullswater see majestic Aira Force waterfall and wander through woodlands, home of Wordsworth’s daffodil poem.

Rowan at Grasmere is a luxury Lakeland holiday home with impressive views, features and quality furnishings. Accommodation with 3 ensuite bedrooms. Weekly rentals Saturday to Saturday. No short breaks. Children over 14 years welcome.  Enquire for younger ages. See Weekly Prices on this listing.
