Set within a private waterfront estate in the Lake District National Park, Waternook comprises two luxurious residences with an array of carefully curated concierge services on offer. The ultimate, super luxury, self catering accommodation, perfect for a weekend or holiday with friends and family.
Whether you book Waternook or The Great Barn or the whole estate, you’re sure to be wowed by this stunning lakeside retreat. Each 17th century country house is sumptuously furnished, with characterful bedrooms, elegant lounges and terraces overlooking the water. The services and experiences on offer are fantastic - so you can choose to self-cater or to be completely and utterly pampered (why not let someone else look after you for a change?). And the surrounding area is both beautiful and full of entertainment, whether you’re into mountain walking, wild swimming or photography. This is the ultimate setting for a weekend away with friends or a special celebration.
Often regarded as the most beautiful of the English lakes, Ullswater is both large and beautiful, with a mountain backdrop and a rich ecosystem that supports a number of Britain’s rarest bird and wildlife species. Those in search of outdoor pursuits will find mountain walks aplenty, as well as opportunities for fishing, boating, swimming and kayaking. Cycling and horse riding are also popular, or you could let the owners arrange some bespoke cooking, baking or wine tasting classes on the estate.
