This well-equipped one bedroom apartment is just a short stroll from the centre of Near Sawrey Village and is ideal for couples looking to unwind and use as a base to explore the stunning surroundings. Near Sawrey is located between Lake Windermere and Hawkshead and nestles on the shores of Esthwaite Water. It’s also the home of Hill Top, Beatrix Potter’s former home where the inspiration was drawn for many of her famous tales. Here you are also less than a 5-minute walk from an excellent village pub offering good food and local ales, with an open fire and a real country pub feel to it.
Accessed via 7 stone steps from a small courtyard, this split-level apartment offers open plan living, with plenty of comfortable seating and a dining area, including large flat screen TV and a small outdoor terrace with bistro table and chairs, ideal for a morning coffee. 4 steps lead down to a well-equipped kitchen on the lower ground floor. The kitchen has all the cooking facilities you’ll need to prepare a hearty breakfast or an evening banquet. Down the hall is a double bedroom with extra storage and a good sized shower room. There is a private parking space directly outside the property and also a washing machine in an outhouse shared with the holiday cottage opposite.
The picturesque village has lovely scenery and walks available from your doorstep. Just 2 miles away you’ll find Hawkshead which offers a range of pubs, shops and plenty of independent cafés and coffee shops. You’re also just a short drive from the Windermere car ferry, which in just 10-minutes takes you across the lake to Bowness-on-Windermere with an abundance of shops, bars, restaurants. Take the steamers across Windermere Lake to Ambleside in the north and Lakeside in the south, which connects to The Lakeside and Haverthwaite Steam Railway. You’re close to Grizedale Forest with lots of woodland walks, cycle routes and even a high rope adventure course, great fun for adults! For golfers, you can access Windermere Golf Course in a short drive as well as Esthwaite Trout Fishery which is just 1 mile away. If you love the outdoors, there’s plenty of hiking and climbing routes all around including both on and off road cycle ways, whatever you want to do on holiday, Garth Court is a great place to start. Beach 16¾ miles.
Garth Court can be booked together with Gardeners Cottage (UK32487) to accommodate up to 4 guests.

SUMP PUMP TOILET WARNING
Only toilet paper to go into the toilet. This is very important as the Sump Pump has broken previously due to flushing wet wipes etc. If this happens again we risk a raw sewage overflow.
There is a notice that has always been in place about this.
