Lonsdale House, Lake Road, Windermere, Cumbria, LA23 2JJ

A four storey double fronted terrace property of colour rendered brick elevations with the advantage of lower ground floor accommodation, with private parking to front and rear.

Constructed in 1851, originally as a gentleman's residence. Lonsdale House was first traded as a hotel in 1932 and retains a number of period style features throughout the property.

The property and business are being offered for sale due to retirement. Following the recent pandemic, the owners closed and comprehensively refurbished the accommodation upgrading all bedrooms, dining areas, along with a new fitted kitchen. The property now has hybrid consent for sole use as a luxury holiday let, or alternatively a B&B guest house.

Conveniently situated upon Lake Road (A5074) within walking distance of the many restaurants and attractions within Bowness and Lake Windermere.
