Fallbarrow Hall North of England

Celebrate amid Gothic splendour beside Lake Windermere

For a big celebration beside one of the most picturesque lakes in England, make Fallbarrow Hall your base. This magnificent Victorian Gothic mansion sits in its own private grounds within Fallbarrow Holiday Park, a leafy resort on the shores of Lake Windermere.

A sensitive restoration to this Grade 2 listed gem celebrates its history while leaving you in no doubt that it’s up to the job of hosting a 21st century get together for up to 36 people. Wander from the jazzy cocktail bar to the relaxed TV lounge and take a late-night whisky in the library. After catching a movie in the cinema room, take over the basement games room for pool and table football. There’s even a chill-out room just for the children.

With 18 bedrooms, including two self-contained apartments, Fallbarrow Hall has space for everyone. The bedrooms are gorgeously presented, with William Morris wallpaper here, a crystal chandelier there and sumptuous king size beds everywhere. Some take their inspiration from the Lakeland poets, while others are furnished in a simple, beautiful shaker style. Top tip? Lay claim to the master bedroom with its four-poster bed, separate seating area and roll-top bath.

Outside, enjoy a large private garden with views of the lake or sink into one of the two hot tubs. The holiday park features a fine dining restaurant and cocktail bar, The Willow, a marina directly on Lake Windermere and an adventure playground for the children to enjoy. The Lake District is on your doorstep, with golf, the World of Beatrix Potter, and the pubs, restaurants and shops of Bowness and Ambleside all nearby.

Guest Reviews

We just returned from a superb family holiday at Fallbarrow Hall! The house is excellent especially with all the well appointed rooms being ensuite and with shower cubicles. The house is also well located within walking distance to the town of Bowness. Big House Experience and Tania were amazing and so helpful in accommodating all our requests. Thank you very much.
