Situated in the grounds of her own small country estate, renowned interior designer, Lynette Tattersall and husband Jack, offer their guests the perfect holiday cottages. Created for comfort, relaxation and a large pinch of wow factor, you have truly a place to simply holiday at, use and enjoy.
The decor of both is rich and sumptuous. Lynette has applied her aesthetic skills and considerable talents throughout, using heavy fabrics, beautiful paint finishes and an eclectic mix of furnishings that sit together happily, the whole seeming to wrap around you, offering that soothing, high level of comfort.
The estate lies on the eastern edge of the Lythe Valley, about five miles from Lake Windermere. A sun drenched plain, flanked with low rolling fell and woodland, it is a green and yellow ochre patchwork of meadows and orchards, where on a summers evening the air can be heavy with the scent of fruit and freshly mown hay.
The valley is criss crossed with narrow winding lanes that pass through farm land, by woodland and over rivers and becks, perfect for walks and cycling.
Nearby the cottages, about two miles, is the little village of Brigsteer, with an excellent pub serving local ales and good food. At Underbarrow, a gentle walk of about a mile, you have the Punch Bowl Inn and at Crosthwaite, yet another Punch Bowl, this one renowned for its cuisine - so plenty of choice for an evening drink and meal.
You approach down a sweeping drive, past a fish laden tarn, through immaculate grounds and into the private courtyard for the cottages.
You enter Honey Pot into a small, richly painted hall, off which lie the two bedrooms. Both have king size beds, fabrics and furnishings to make you want to turn in early and each has a full en-suite bathroom.
Stairs lead up and open into the large sitting room, with dining area and kitchen. There are huge plump sofas to curl up on, large lamps to set the mood, furnishings and fabrics - well perfect - and a roaring log fire to complete the atmosphere in winter.
A door from the sitting room open onto a balcony where you could make grand romantic gestures. Steps lead down to a patio area and large lawn where you can barbecue and dine alfresco or simply do nothing but enjoy a perfect but perfect peace.
All in all these cottages are simply the best. Ideal for family holidays, romantic breaks, honeymoons or that weekend when you pluck up the courage to propose - whichever you will have a fantastic stay and leave with lasting memories of the perfect lakeland holiday.
