Lowther Estate Luxury Holiday Cottages
Lowther
Penrith
Cumbria
CA10 2HG

This is the Lake District you hoped for but can seldom find – close to lakes and fells yet far from the madding crowds. The vast country estate at Lowther in the north of the National Park offers four distinct holiday homes:

Whale Corner - our newly-converted, top-notch cottage. Sleeps six. Five Star Gold Award.
Whale Farm Cottage - an elegant 5-star Gold Award house in the valley of the River Lowther. Sleeps four.
Winder Hall - a historic cottage, high on a classic fell above Ullswater. Sleeps four. Four Star Gold Award.
Park View - a picture postcard cottage for five on a village green. Four star.

These are exceptional Lakeland holiday cottages. Each is a historic property and our approach to estate management is applied to our holiday cottages: high standards, a sense of place and history, the best of design, great attention to detail.  Each cottage has a well-appointed kitchen, comfortable beds and sofas, cosy fires, gardens and parking. We welcome hillwalkers, cyclists, canoeists, sailors, lively children, dogs (at two cottages), grown-ups, honeymooners and even – at Winder Hall Cottage – horses. For children you’ll find everything you need including cots, cutlery and games, woods to explore and swimming in the river.
