Ready to explore the whimsical luxury of the Lake District and Dip your toes in the Lake Como of England?

On the shores of Lake Windermere rests a deeply nurturing retreat where the magic of childhood meets 1920’s glamour, all with breathtaking views over wild and ancient landscapes.

A stay at this Grande Victorian House, will transport you straight to the heyday of the 1920’s. Created with glamour and more than a hint of childhood magic, fairytale turrets glimmer beneath rolling clouds, stained glass ceilings create kaleidoscopes of colour, wardrobes double as secret doors…in short, Langdale Chase is the perfect base for some wholesome, whimsical exploring.

Inspired by the world of Arthur Ransom in his epic children’s adventure novels, the wonder and innocence of ‘Swallows and Amazons’ infuse this decadent destination.

Set within a six-acre garden, currently being restored and re-imagined by Annie Guilfoyle, the entire house revolves romantically around the Great Hall, a double height, panelled space reminiscent of The Great Gatsby with each room emanating from this central social delight looking out over the magnificent lake views.

From a private cinema with regular film showings, complete with popcorn and ice cream, to exquisite wine cellars available for wine tasting sessions, boat hire, paddleboarding and 4×4 experiences in nearby Ambleside, there is a slice of adventure to suit everyone’s taste.

And did we mention the Copper Outdoor Bath?

Set on a truly sublime terrace overlooking the lake, the giant round pure Copper Bath is the perfect spot for sundowners, afternoon relaxation or a decadent start to the day. Enjoy your coffee from the blissful warmth as the sun rises in an opaline sky over lakeside views, or sip champagne immersed in luxury as the sun dips below the horizon in a blaze of rich nostalgia.

Handcrafted from pure copper, this luxury Outdoor Bath maintains the warmth naturally for a long luxurious soak beneath vast open skies and starry nights.

“As you gaze once more at Lake Windermere and the surrounding fells, you’ll be forgiven for thinking you have found the best bath in the Lake District at Langdale Chase, where the art of indulgence is defined by the artistry of nature itself.” Mike Vincent  – General Manager: Langdale Chase
