A One Bedroomed Barn Cottage

A sumptuous sofa sits in front of an electric wood-burning effect stove whilst the generous and well-fitted kitchen with a central dining island with a feature oak beam has everything you’ll need for either a weekend or a longer stay.

The generous, natural-themed king-size bedroom has a wealth of exposed beams and an en-suite shower room with a hand basin and WC. Blessed with a private, fully enclosed courtyard garden, and private parking for one car.

With the entrance at ground level, the quirky layout sees the sleeping area to the first floor and the living space to the lower floor.

One of five traditional barn cottages redeveloped for the discerning, modern-day visitor, Stable Cottage has been thoughtfully designed to provide exquisite accommodation for a couple. The emphasis here is very much on natural products, tactile fabrics and a relaxing vibe to ensure you make the most of your precious time away together

Location & Nearby

A MOST EXQUISITE DESTINATION RETREAT

The Heaning Estate is located just a short distance from the bustling town of Windermere here in the beautiful Lake District, now a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Set along a private lane off the A591 and just over a mile south of the village, the site is accessed along a sweeping, tree-lined drive and enjoys a commanding presence on the landscape with superb views towards the majestic Howgills, Windermere village and the High Borrans range resulting in a picture-postcard backdrop to this unique estate.

A two-year labour of love has seen the estate owners draw on their own family holiday experiences to ensure they provide their guests with just a little bit more than you’d expect from a self-catering break – a bit more space, a lot more quality, somewhere special to enable everyone to relax, unwind and to share precious family time together.

Along with experienced, local craftsmen and renowned interior designers, the extensive renovation works have involved centuries-old working practices to totally transform the original, imposing Victorian gentleman’s residence and adjacent sixteenth-century barn cottages, groaning with history, into their present-day, pristine condition.

Authentic Lakeland Exteriors And Grounds

The authentic Lakeland exteriors and grounds have been painstakingly rejuvenated and beautifully married with an eclectic interior palate of contemporary living, fashionable dining and distinctive sleeping spaces, all thoughtfully designed with the sole purpose of your assured comfort and enjoyment in mind.

To Suit Your Individual Requirements

The estate comprises no less than five glorious one-bedroomed barn cottages, a stunning three-bedroomed home and an exquisite seven-bedroomed Victorian dwelling which can be booked individually, all together or in any combination to suit your individual requirements.

A beautiful few days in the Lake District after our wedding, we couldn't have asked for a more perfect spot! The location and home was ideal for everything we wanted and there is the most delicious pub just down the road. I would definitely be recommending! Thank you so much for making it a home from home!

It’s a lovely cottage in a great location - it has everything you might need for a break in The Lakes. The books, board games (and fizz!) were a welcome addition.

A lovely, relaxing stay! We felt right at home. The Stables was spotlessly clean, with lots of amenities. A helpful guide book was provided (alongside a bottle of bubbly!) to help us plan our holiday. A beautiful area and lovely surroundings. Easy to reach the nearest towns but far enough away that it was peaceful and quiet. We would love to visit again!

Absolutely beautiful. Loved every minute. The cottage smelt divine when we entered, the Pure lakes Diffuser was lovely. The bed was very comfy the amenities were fab. The gardens were also lovely lots of birds and views to die for. The only one niggle was the sofa!. After all day hiking just wanted to sink to something comfy. It was a bit hard. It looked lovely and very modern but to funky

Michelle’s place was a fabulous location, meticulously clean & well decorated. The master bed was extremely comfy, please tell me what mattress that is please! Wet room was brilliant also. Only gripe would be the sofa, but we were out the vast majority of the time so it didn’t matter at all! We will be returning very soon and thanks again for the brilliant stay Michelle. 5* all round from us both xx

Fantastic stay! More than enough room, amazing decor and super cute bathroom on top floor - easy to find with clear instructions how to find the property! Perfect location. Super clean, will definitely be booking again in the future when we return! Only thing that we didn’t love was the TV but other than that PERFECT HOLIDAY HOME 🏡

We absolutely loved our stay at this Cottage! It came well equipped and felt so cosy. The bed was so comfortable! The only negative was the sofa is not very comfortable for 2 to chill on. Apart from that we loved the cottage and all the little complimentary bits that were provided. We would definitely stay here again.

On Wednesday, 14 Sep 2022
Such a lovely week at Stable Cottage, close to Windermere but peaceful and tranquil…. overall it was exactly as we expected. A couple of things though that stopped it being a 10/10 were - the sofa is extremely uncomfortable for 2 to relax on for a evening - we ended up either one of us sitting on the floor or we bought the chair from the bedroom. - there was no dishwasher tablets but thankfully we bought our own - the baking trays stick badly and only 1 saucepan was a challenge. - we would have loved to have bbq’d but appreciate closeness of neighbouring cottages prevented us. - the wet room being downstairs off the lounge meant we kept the blinds closed for our stay to prevent passing walkers looking in on us. Regardless of the few points above we did really enjoy our stay - the location was fantastic, cottage was of a really high standard l, views amazing and the little info guide was incredibly helpful.

Wow, what a place! The property was clean and well presented upon arrival, and the estate itself is absolutely gorgeous! If you didn’t want to leave the site, and just stay in the cottage and take in the views, you could. Windermere is a stones throw away and whilst it is a bustling place, the cottage and estate have a quiet and calming feel to it. I would 100% recommend anyone and everyone to come here, we’ve had a beautiful stay and we really couldn’t say anything negative about our experience. Thank you to our host for providing such a beautiful property!!

Myself and my husband spent our 1st wedding anniversary at the stable cottage. Michelle and Gerry were so attentive providing exceptional service. The booklet from The Heaning Estate covered everything from sightseeing, spa days, restaurants and takeaway options, these little touches made the stay more comfortable and relaxing. The Stable Cottage was superb, clean and most of all cosy. Location is local to Windermere local attractions. The weather wasn’t great to explore the Lake District, however the stay at the stable cottage was so cosy, we were more than happy to stay in and watch a movie and relax. Lovely experience, on our drive back to Birmingham we were already thinking about our next visit. Definitely would recommend to friends and family. Thank you to The Heaning Estate and Lakeland Retreats.

We had a week at Stable Cottage. Lovely little cottage which is decorated and equipped to a really nice standard. The bedroom is lovely; it was so nice to lay in bed and to hear the water feature. Lakeland Retreats who manage the property do an excellent job because it was spotless and fresh.They were also very helpful and accommodating with everything - thank you! The estate itself is very pretty with some nice little walks around the grounds and down the lanes. It's only 5 mins drive into Windermere town. If it's a school holiday I'd recommend parking in the Windermere School campus. - only £4 for 4 hours, and only a couple of minutes walk to the town.

The location was great as it was very peaceful and quiet.The cottage was beautifully decorated, had everything we needed for our stay and was definitely luxurious.We especially loved the bedroom which was very spacious and the bed was so comfortable.

Amazing stay in The Stable Cottage! Surrounded by beautiful grounds, 5 minute drive into Windermere and a very stylish cottage! The welcome packs and small touches were lovely, especially for me the Christmas tree! All the tech was very up to date and everywhere was immaculate. The only thing for us, is that the sofa wasn’t very comfortable, but everything else was 5 star! Thank you x

The cottage is absolutely beautiful, it's the perfect place for a couple especially during the cold season. The area is amazing also, you have many shops very near the cottage. The kitchen is equipped with everything you need. We also had a Christmas tree wating for us when we arrived which was amazing, the star of the living room. Highly highly recommended.

We had an amazing stay here over a long weekend before the 2nd UK Lockdown took effect. It's a lovely secluded property with plenty to do nearby and some beautiful views of the sky at night. The apartment felt very new, clean and modern. The finishing touches were lovely (fresh clean robes and slippers) and very welcome. Would highly recommend and looking forward to staying again

The stable cottage was a lovely place for two, however there were a few things that were annoying with interior. The shower/ wet room is off the sitting area and There was nowhere to hang towels dressing gown whilst showering without them getting wet, so had to leave on sitting room floor. The modern sofa was uncomfortable and no side tables at sitting height was annoying. The toilet fan was on lightly even when off and was annoying at night. The rest of the decor interior was very well thought out and very modern👍
