Lake District cottage with gorgeous views in Beatrix Potter country

Just south of Far Sawrey, and a mile from Near Sawrey and Beatrix Potter's home Hill Top, perched high above the valley with views stretching across to Lake Windermere, proudly stands the large mansion, Sawrey Knotts. Built in 1861 and once home to a Captain Dand, it is now a select number of beautifully converted apartments, each with its own character and charm.

Top Garden Suite is a beautiful, 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom holiday apartment. Recently refurbished to a high standard, the cottage features locally purchased textiles and stunning Lake District artwork. With its excellent views, peaceful location and numerous local walks, Top Garden Suite is perfect for couples or perhaps two couples holidaying together, looking for a welcoming and comfortable base from which to venture out and explore the Lake District.

Within close walking proximity to the popular Cuckoo Brow Inn that offers many great local ales and fanatic menu comprising mostly local ingredients.
