Set in the stunning South Lakes region, this property gives you the best of both worlds. Fancy a hike? The Yorkshire Dales are right there. Want to explore charming market towns? Kirkby Lonsdale and Kendal are just a short drive away. The location is ideal for day trips with ample parking for five cars - enough for your entire convoy of friends who'll inevitably invite themselves along when they hear where you're staying.
The accommodation features two lounges (because one TV argument isn't enough on holiday), a dining room that seats all 10 guests and a conservatory with level access to the garden. Bedroom options include super-king-size and king-size beds, with one of each offering zip-and-link flexibility. The bathrooms are properly posh - one even has a roll-top air-bath for when you've had enough of the hot tub but still want to get wet.
Nearby attractions include the historic market town of Kirkby Lonsdale (15 minutes), Lake Windermere (30 minutes), the Yorkshire Three Peaks (25 minutes) and Kendal Castle (20 minutes) where you can work off all those mint cakes you'll inevitably buy.
Three Mile House is perfect for multi-generational family gatherings or friends' getaways. The hot tub and BBQ area make evenings special and the property's accessibility features ensure everyone can enjoy the holiday. Just don't bring your campervans or plan any wild parties - this accommodation is too classy for that nonsense.
