Georgian country house on Esthwaite Water, once home to Beatrix Potter

Amenities & Grounds

The house offers 2 traditional lounges, each with a working fireplace, and a terrace with views of the most well-known fells in the Lake District. Guests have access to free parking, an electric vehicle charging station, and a garden with outdoor furniture. Board games and puzzles are available in the lounges, and packed lunches can be arranged for day walks.

Rooms & Suites

9 rooms are available, with 7 offering en suite bathrooms and 2 having separate private bathrooms. Each bedroom includes a TV and striking views of the surrounding countryside, with some rooms featuring sloped beamed ceilings. The house provides a safety deposit box in each room, and guests receive tea or coffee and freshly baked scones upon arrival.

Dining & Breakfast

Most mornings the aroma of freshly baked bread fills the house, served alongside locally sourced bacon and Cumberland sausage. The breakfast menu also features Loch Fyne kippers as a tasty option. Evening meals are available at the house, prepared by the owner-chef using daily-changing menus.

Location & Walks

The Moss Eccles Tarn walk starts directly from the house, offering a direct route into the Lake District fells. The Windermere Ferry is 2 miles away, connecting to Ferry Nab near Bowness-On-Windermere. The property is less than 3 miles from the town of Hawkshead and a short walk to Hill Top, Beatrix Potter's home.

Ees Wyke was once a holiday home of Beatrix Potter, and the house retains its Georgian character. The interior includes traditional lounges with fireplaces and a sunny parlor stocked with a selection of books. The house is set on high ground, overlooking Esthwaite Water and providing views of the Langdale Pikes, Scafell Pike, and Coniston Old Man.
