Dixie Airstream - Holiday in style in an iconic Americal Airstream

Relax in this iconic 1957 American Airstream, situated in the grounds of an 18th Century residence, which is conveniently situated between the villages of Ings and Staveley and only 2.5 miles from Windermere.

The Airstream has been permanently placed and with such benefits from fresh running water, electricity and a plumbed-in loo. Wooden decking to the front makes an ideal space to have a BBQ or read a book.

The Airstream offers a comfortable double bed with fresh bedding, a WC, a separate shower and a cosy seating area.
The wooden work surfaces and abundance of storage space makes for an uncluttered space.
A fridge, microwave and tea/coffee making facilities are provided but there are no cooking facilities, but this is easily remedied by taking a short stroll to one of the local pubs - The Watermill Inn & Brewery at Ings, The Eagle and Child in Staveley or Hawkshead Brewery & Beer Hall in Staveley all of which offer superb food. Alternatively, head into Windermere for a choice of fantastic restaurants.

The area is popular with mountain bikers too, riding the many routes in the Kentdale Valley, secure undercover storage is available for bikes if required.

Just spent an amazing weekend in the stunning accommodation. Airstream van was something very different and it did not disappoint. Extremely cleaned and everything provided that we needed for our stay, superb host. Fantastic location, 20 minute walk into village and easy access by train into Windermere. Cannot rate this accommodation high enough. 5*

Absolutely brilliant
My daughter and son in law stopped at the property, bought by myself and wife as a birthday present. They were both extremely impressed with the check in process, the property and the surroundings and enjoyed a fantastic few days away… Many many thanks …

Short Lakes Stay
A big ✅️ to staying in an airstream. Thats another off the list 😁 Decorated lovely and a great welcome. My only negative being the noise from the main road - didnt realise it was so close. Such a busy road - note to self- I should do my homework more before going. Lovely place but wouldn't return purely because of the road noise

Birthday treat
I chose this property stay as a birthday gift for my partner. It matched and exceeded expectations. Everything is compact, yet there is a spacious feel such that we didn't mind being holed up for a morning because of the rain! We are Airstream converts!

Amazing little caravan with loads of charm
Amazing, kind host with a lovely property. Felt at home right away in a charming, cosy caravan. Especially easy to get to Windermere or Kendal by car (or bus), or to Staveley, the next town across, by foot (with a local brewery and many cafes which are absolutely worth a visit). Would love to go back.
