Perhaps this home is just where you can soak up the quaintness of the village and experience a snippet of the Lake District life. Holmthwaite offers a vast lounge-living area that provides the heart of the home downstairs. With the addition of a well equipped kitchen and dining space to prepare those traditional breakfasts, array of packed lunches and hearty evening meals. It proudly possesses the ability to house twelve people within six double bedrooms over three floors. Your brood can also enjoy the indulgence of four sizeable bathrooms. Plus the added bonus of easy car parking access, at the rear of the house, which comfortably fits two large cars (three medium sized cars) for your party. All this amounts to a tailor-made holiday home for large groups and families. As well as appealing to enthusiastic walkers, cyclists and sailors alike. Satisfy your thirst for adventure here for all that is natural, carefree and good for the soul. Bedroom - Worthworth The warmth of the duck-egg blue furniture and the sea-breeze shade of the entwined leaf wallpaper aid the view of the tops of Grizedale and vast sky faultlessly. A little picture-perfect window view to gaze out of while you sip your morning coffee and maybe a sneaky bite of that biscuit, before the rest of the troops wake up. A double-bedded room with a smart television and ample storage solutions, finished off with a lush dove grey carpet to sink your toes into. This bedroom promotes a sense of calm with the refreshing choice of colour palette and a contenting sense of space. The quaint vintage style of the bedroom benefits from the natural light, due to being positioned at the front of the townhouse and still enjoys one of its original features in the form of an impressive fireplace. A cleverly designed room that you can easily feel at ease in with all the comforts of home and the additional promise of a truly great British getaway. Bedroom - Ruskin The middle floor of Holmthwaite is home to a double room filled with notes of pistachio, vanilla and light grey. The charming tree stamped wallpaper is the perfect compliment to the soft mint vintage storage furniture that occupies this room. Enjoy flicking through your daily paper, as the morning’s light seeps through the window. This particular window frames the view of Wetherlam that beckons you to pull on your walking boots and amble amongst its landscape. For those stolen sleepy lie-ins, there is a smart TV to satisfy your viewing needs. The traditional Victorian features of the house does not abandon this room, it treats it to a bijou authentic fireplace to keep those toes nice and cosy. Bedroom - Ransome This double bedroom is situated on the middle floor of Holmthwaite towards the rear of the house, where its windows display the impressive views of Coniston Old Man and the peaks of Grizedale. Welcomed extras of smart TV for cosy nights under the duvet, duo windows for pleasant luminosity and an abundance of essential storage all tick the practical boxes for a holiday home that is stress free. The pastel grey eclectic furniture ensures a unique demeanour and sits well amongst the earthy tones of chocolate and sage that lie within its drapes and statement wall. A room to relax in for a piece of you time, the calm before the nights shenanigans or a quick back-pack check for the challenging trek after breakfast. Bedroom - Coleridge This top floor bedroom at the back of the townhouse has the distinct benefit of holding a handsome view of Grizedale and the beauty at its foot. It has twin beds that can simply be manipulated into a double version, if so required. The vanilla pod walls and quirky slanted ceiling creates an interesting room that has the advantage of natural light and welcomed comfort. The warm cream furniture provides a great companion to the coffee-coloured carpet and the rich plum fabrics that deck the room. There is sufficient storage for all those togs, wools and hiking socks, as well as a smart TV for the morning’s news and 9 o’clock film with a steaming mug of hot chocolate. Bedroom - Quincy This top floor double bedroom includes storage furniture in a musky slate grey and hosts the luxury of a thick mocha carpet and Cornish-cream walls. The aubergine shades shine mackerel-bright and provide rich warmth to the room and welcomes contentment. Imagine indulging into a sneaky black forest gateau with a dollop of clotted ice cream in the eve. From its windows you can gaze out onto the village of Coniston and also grab a slice of Grizedale all in the same moment. It sits on the top floor at the front of Holmthwaite and like all the other guest rooms; it possesses a smart TV to assist your sweet dessert indulgence. Bedroom - Potter A its highest peak, Holmthwaite houses the last double guest room and undoubtedly its windows presents the best clear views of both Grizedale and Coniston Old Man. A neutral light grey carpet provides the back drop for the hummingbird-teal shades of the drapes and lush soft furnishings in this room. Another smart TV and the mix of both cream and off-white storage furniture allows you to chuck that suitcase aside and fold away you knits, lycra and life’s everyday essentials. A lovely base for your family break-away, but with a family recipe on the range’s stove; the kitchen is where you secretly choose to be. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport -
