Lake District Love Shack
England / Ambleside, Cumbria
Full description
Designed by acclaimed architects Sutherland Hussey, this stylish RIBA award-winning holiday let is perfectly positioned to offer seclusion and tranquility in the Lake District.
As you look out over Lake Windermere from the Love Shack, it's hard to imagine that this was once where a rustic log cabin once sat. Owners Karen & Adam found this incredible spot and had the vision to create a comfortable and sustainable home, blending bespoke pieces with antiques and curios to create an eclectic yet aesthetic woodland retreat. The eco-credentials also add to their achievement in creating a dream holiday home, with low-energy lighting, environmentaly-friendly products, a unique moss roof, and use of reclaimed timber to create a space that is effortlessly sympathetic with its environment.
This is very much a couple's retreat, sleeping two in a king-size bed, with modern design touches such as an entertainment system including iPod dock and Sky TV, japanese-style square bath tub and French doors leading out to a large elevated deck to really take advantage of those unbeatable views. The house also has a detached garden studio with a record player and vinyl collection - a perfect place to unwind and contemplate the natural surroundings.
