Overwater Lodge is perfect for adults and children alike, with space to relax and play.
Situated 3 miles north east of Bassenthwaite Lake, the area is perfect for walking, cycling and relaxing.
The Reiver cycleway passes the cottage.
Two bridleways lead alongside to Binsey Fell, Skiddaw and the Cumbrian Way.

With an abundance of bird life, the occasional red squirrel and deer, Overwater Lodge enjoys a truly tranquil location.

The Castle Inn Hotel and Armathwaite Hall Hotel are within 3 miles and between them offer spa treatments, spa days and outdoor pursuit activities, such as clay pigeon shooting and quad biking.

This is an isolated property and you really need a car but once you are there the views and wildlife are wonderful.
The beds and showers are good and overall the property is spacious. The only reservation that we have is that the sofas are becoming very uncomfortable and the seats in them are very low, if that is resolved we would rate this property very highly.
