High Cleabarrow is a gorgeous and generously sized, 17th century traditional Lakeland farmhouse with a host of quirky features such as centuries old wonky floors, beamed ceilings and original oak panelling. The property enjoys a wonderful and peaceful setting amidst enchanting gardens, it has its own tennis court, a table tennis room and is just a step away from Windermere Golf Club. Dating back to at least 1704 (we believe it is a lot older) this property is a special find, it's a delight, it’s homely, it has atmosphere, it’s comfortable and full of character. High Cleabarrow enjoys seclusion within its lovely two acre gardens, but also the convenience and attractions of Bowness and Windermere are just five minutes away by car. At this traditional Lakeland retreat, blending modern living with the past effortlessly - the owners have finished it in-keeping with its age, yet adding modern touches of course. A large family bathroom, stylish shower room, comfortable bedrooms, even the small one, are very well equipped and cosy, thanks to the Aga. There’s a farmhouse kitchen, a sizable dining room with original oak panelled wall and spice cupboard, and the relaxing living room with a wonderful open fire (coal supplied all year round). With five bedrooms the house sleeps ten and outside you’ll find an amateur tennis court, a summer house with lovely views and beautiful gardens.
