Tanglewood, magnificent house on Coniston Water with private lake frontage
Tanglewood is an outstanding lakeside home of exceptional quality which sleeps 10 adults. Offering an unforgettable Lake District experience, this magnificent home-from-home comes with 100 metres of private lake frontage, with two jetties for your own personal use.
Stylish, elegant and exclusive, Tanglewood is truly Lake District accommodation at its very finest. Oozing Lake District luxury, this glamorous abode offers its guests a grandiose and sophisticated holiday, with the freedom and privacy that choosing a self-catering break brings.
Tanglewood is spectacularly located right on the lake shore. Coniston Water curves its way around this breath-taking property, ensuring jaw-dropping, wrap around lake views from the many windows of this incomparable Lakeland residence.
On the first floor, an extraordinary lounge with its spectacular glass-gable end makes the very most of this one-of-a-kind location. This huge room with incredible lake views includes inviting sofas for socialising and relaxing, a built-in log burning stove for cosy evenings round the fire and a large Smart TV. Glass doors give access to the terrace, with more astonishing lake views.
The double garage ensures ample, secure storage for bikes, canoes, paddle-boards and all your adventure gear.
With truly rare and wholly private lake access to beautiful Coniston Water, a designated bathing site, this property is perfect for those looking to spend time on the water. From your secluded lake shore, you can have your own Swallows and Amazons adventure, with the real-life Wild Cat Island close by. And with 2 private jetties, those looking to paddle-board, canoe or wild swim can do so to their heart’s content from this exclusive waterside home.
