We are just a few hundred metres from both the centre of Bowness, and the Ferries at Lake Windermere. Bowness has an abundance of restaurants, pubs and cocktail bars, and here at The Firs perfectly placed a short stroll from the hustle and bustle of the most vibrant Village in the Lake District.

Choose between the stylish and luxurious Lounge, the comfortable and relaxed sitting room featuring piano, and the gorgeously sociable, large kitchen diner. A large utility basement with laundry facilities is accessed from the kitchen through a secret bookcase door (shhhh), allowing you to clean and dry clothes out of sight and away from the living spaces.
