Description
Windermere suites is currently run as a high quality hotel with stylish letting suites. Planning Permission was obtained in December 2025 (7/2025/5579) to convert into 5 substantial apartments that could either be used for short term holiday letting or permanent residence. The opportunity exists to create a fantastic letting portfolio as an investment or indeed use one of the units to live in and holiday let and manage the units on site.
Jack Serginson of Local Letting Agents, Ridgestone of Windermere have access to the plans and have predicted that each of the 5 units could generate an annual gross income of around £40,000 when converted to a high standard and have some time to establish themselves.
Located just a short stroll from the centre of Windermere, guests can easily explore the charming local shops, cafes, and attractions. The property's prime location offers excellent transport links, making it a popular choice for tourists seeking the quintessential Lake District experience.
