The Dower House is a delightful, late Victorian Country House built on the site of a medieval packhorse inn. The house stands in over six acres of natural wooded grounds and gardens, with tumbling streams and an abundance of wildlife.
The house has been thoughtfully adapted to provide versatile accommodation – either for bed and breakfast or self-catering. There are four apartments with spacious living rooms and good views over the Furness Fells and Dower House’s own beautiful gardens.
Access to the apartments is through the grand main hall which contains a superb fireplace with carved wood surround. Off the hall is a large, comfortable Residents' Lounge/Dining room with wood-burning stove which overlooks the lawn and water garden. There is ample parking space for guests’ cars at the top of our long, secluded driveway.
Each Apartment is individually designed to provide spacious and comfortable accommodation for our guests and to take advantage of the fine views of the gardens and surrounding countryside.
