Sandown is a very special family holiday home, both child and pet friendly set in the perfect location on the edge of Bowness-on-Windermere village. It is the perfect choice for families or friends wishing to unwind and enjoy spending time together away from the stress of everyday life and have the luxury of walking distance to the village centre with all the shops, cafes, pubs and restaurants in addition to Lake Windermere’s water edge. The house is beautifully furnished making guests feel welcome and most importantly comfortable. It is an upside down house so the 4 lovely bedrooms, sleeping 7, are all en-suite and located on the ground floor (there is also a travel cot available). The very spacious living area on the first floor has a large lounge with nice mountains views, an elegant dining room and a kitchen and utility room which are very well equipped for all your family meals, there is also an outdoor space with table, chairs and BBQ for when the sun shines. What also makes Sandown a great holiday house is the parking for up to 4 cars, making it the ideal choice for anyone looking for high quality holiday accommodation which is reasonable priced and is ideally located in the heart of the beautiful Lake District.
Whether it's your first visit to the Lake District National Park or you have been more times than you can count, Bowness-on-Windermere has the sense that you've come home. Not only is it incredibly picturesque, but it has a relaxed atmosphere that comes from being in a community that revolves around the seasons. Bowness-on-Windermere has everything visitors could desire for their self-catering holiday - including an excellent choice of places to eat out if you don't feel like cooking. In addition to being a magnet for walkers, it's also a top choice for people who enjoy sailing and other watersports.
Even the grouchiest of teenagers would struggle to be bored during their stay at Sandown. Fill your days with hiking, cycling, sailing, climbing, go-karting, sliding down zip-lines and navigating high-ropes courses. Perhaps you'd prefer a round of golf, riding a quad bike, fishing or kayaking. Nearby, there are zoos, playgrounds and indoor play centres, boat rides, castles, and an aquarium. Local attractions include The World of Beatrix Potter and Blackwell, the Lakeside Steam Train, and Hayes Garden World.
With 16 lakes, countless hills and mountains - including Scafell Pike, England's highest peak - historic houses and lovely towns like Keswick and Grasmere to explore, a holiday at Sandown puts you close to the centre of everything without sacrificing space and privacy.
