THE LOCAL AREA

Bowness-on-Windermere surrounds part of Windermere Lake shore. From the famous pier, you can board a steamer or hire other types of boat for a trip on the
Lake. A Lake trip gives an excellent vantage point to admire the stunning scenery. It can also be a novel mode of transport to take you to other destinations
such as Ambleside, to visit the landmark Bridge House and Stock Ghyll Force Waterfalls or Newby Bridge, to tour the Lakes Aquarium or ride on the Lakeside and
Haverthwaite steam railway. There are a wealth of shops and eateries in Bowness, as well as a cinema, theatre, and the Windermere Jetty Museum and World of Beatrix Potter Attraction.

Windermere town also has many shops and eateries as well as a railway station that connects to the West Coast mainline at Oxenholme. Near to the station is the start of the walk to Orrest Head, this 20-minute walk gives spectacular views on a clear day.

Public transport links around both Bowness and Windermere are excellent, in addition to trains and boats the Open-Top Buses with commentary, provide links to places including Grasmere and Keswick.

From the end of the cul-de-sac on which Brow Top sits, you can turn left on to a footpath that leads to the Dales Way and nearby peaks including Brantfell and School Knott.

We had such a beautiful stay here. The views were stunning and the balcony was a fantastic area to sit and relax. The house had everything you needed, with all the instructions you needed. Spacious, clean and tidy. Beds were extremely comfortable. We would 100% be coming back. Thank you! x

Review of Brow Top

By Mike on 15-Aug-2025

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Brow Top. It served as a great base for exploring The Lakes, both nearby and further afield. The house was equipped with everything we needed and provided a relaxing space to recharge for the next day. The views over Windermere and the ease of access to the fells behind the house were real highlights. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the house to others.

Brow Top holiday review

By Julie on 30-Jan-2024

My family and I had an amazing stay at Brow Top. As soon as we arrived there was a lovely homely welcoming vibe. The living space was modern, tastefully furnished and impeccably clean. Great location too. We could easily walk into the centre of Bowness with quirky shops and eateries as well as venturing onto the fells at the back of the property with beautiful views. Clear information on the amenities/keys/ heating ect was provided throughout the property, which was really helpful. Much consideration had been given to provide absolutely everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The lovely open plan kitchen was well equipped providing an ideal space for the family chill out together when we weren’t out and about exploring the fantastic surroundings. The bedrooms were spacious with very comfortable beds too. This has been the perfect place to relax and recharge. Would thoroughly recommend staying at Brow Top and will definitely be back! Thank you Jane and Duncan
