Tucked away in the heart of Bowness-on-Windermere, Ferry View Studio is a cosy, self-contained retreat that’s perfect for couples or solo travellers looking to slow down and soak up the beauty of the Lakes. With Lake Windermere just a short stroll away, and both Bowness and Windermere town centres within easy reach, this is the ideal base for your next Lake District escape.
Step inside and you’ll find a thoughtfully designed open-plan space with everything you need for a comfortable stay. There’s a king-size bed, a neat dining area, and a compact but well-equipped kitchenette with a hob, kettle, microwave, utensils, pots and pans, and all the little basics to help you feel at home.
Open-plan storage, including a handy cupboard and cubes for your bits and bobs (plus a hairdryer), keeps the space feeling light and clutter-free.
The modern bathroom features a generous rainfall shower, and we’ve stocked it with shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and hand soap—so you can travel light.
Outside, your own private garden is ready and waiting. Whether it’s a lazy soak in the hot tub, breakfast in the fresh air, or a glass of wine under the stars, this little suntrap is made for unwinding.
There's even private parking for one car right outside the gate, making your stay easy from the moment you arrive.
Ferry View Studio is all about comfort, privacy, and location—a charming little bolthole just moments from the lakeshore and the energy of Bowness, but tucked away enough to feel like your own peaceful hideaway.
Worried about parking? Don't be. Parking is a breeze, with a designated space situated right at the front of the property – just keep your eyes peeled for the 'Ferry View Studio' Parking Plaque.
