We
are in Windermere, one of the main villages on the largest lake in the Lake
District. Windermere is easily accessible by car and train. The village
is on the A591, 14 miles from junction 36 of the M6, 250 miles from London,
90 miles from Manchester and 170 miles from Glasgow/Edinburgh.
The main railway station is at Oxenholme (near Kendal) on the main London
Euston to Glasgow route (3.5 hours from London). A local train service runs
from Oxenholme to Windermere and we are 10-15 minutes’ walk from the station.
The
Coach House is on the road that runs through Windermere and down into the
village of Bowness-on-Windermere, which, as the name suggests, is on the
shores of the lake. We are 5-10 minutes’ walk from the centres of both villages.
The house backs onto some lovely old woods and Mill Beck, a fast-flowing
stream - so, especially if you’re staying in a room at the back of the house,
it feels like you’re in the middle of nowhere.
