The Boundary is an elegant, stylish, spacious Victorian house that is also within walking distance of forty restaurants and pubs, scores of shops and Windermere, England's largest Lake. There is a bathroom for every luxurious bedroom, a fantastic dining kitchen and two log-burners, one in the kitchen and one in the elegant sitting room. There are also two more cosy sitting rooms, one with TV and one with gas fire and pleasant outlook.
It is a few minutes' stroll from the villages of Windermere and Bowness and has ample off-street parking for five cars with plentiful, free on-street parking nearby.
All seven rooms have king- or super-king sized double beds and two can be configured as twin rooms if you prefer.
The owner is a big cricket fan and bedrooms are named for giants of the game's past, from the era when the house was built.
