Description

Fairbank Farm House is a former gentleman’s residence set in 350 acres of beautiful working farmland. Fairbank Farmhouse is a semi-detached property and part of a private and secluded Lake District estate, which is situated close to the village of Staveley and only 10 minutes from Windermere.

Recently refurbished throughout in a contemporary style, it is the perfect base for friends and families to enjoy. Every room in the house has magnificent vistas from the windows and you will be forgiven if you find yourself daydreaming, looking out at the impressive views.  There are two large lounges, each with comfortable seating and with a warming and inviting wood burner. Beautiful curved windows are a fantastic feature of this house, allowing an abundance of light and postcard views of the rolling countryside.

The large dining room will seat 10 with room to spare; there is also a separate dining table in the kitchen seating 4, perfect for the children’s breakfast. The traditional farmhouse kitchen has everything you will need for your stay, the centrepiece being an impressive Aga stove.

There is plenty of outside space with a large lawned area and comfortable seating for all your party and with a gas BBQ, it's the ideal space to enjoy alfresco dining and watch the working farm; you may even have a few sheep looking over jealously.

Very clean, comfortable and well equipped. Beautiful setting and good location to travel into Windermere and Kendal. Due to time of year did not try local walks but I am sure they would be good.
