About The Loft

This bright little hideaway is the perfect escape for anyone looking for somewhere special to stay in the heart of the Lake District. Set in two acres of mature gardens, including a tennis court and putting green, the apartment is located in the upper floor of a former gentleman’s residence and enjoys beautiful westerly views over Lake Windermere.
