Exclusive Use - Families & Friends

Since 1917 and spanning five generations, the Cunliffe family have been coming together at the Lake House for holidays, short breaks and parties. It is a wonderful place for family groups and friends, with an abundance of natural beauty helping create an inner peace.

We have always had our own children at the Lake House, and it does inspire children, even the computer game addicted. Hopefully, after a day making camps in the woods, swimming, boating, fishing etc, they will return exhausted, but exhilarated, with tales of adventure.

However, there are obvious dangers and a full safety briefing and contract will be essential for all parties with children. See example click here.

Simply stunning

25ft of wall to wall, floor to ceiling, glass windows overlooking Knipe Tarn and the surrounding woodland. Whatever the season, just sink into the armchairs and watch nature at it’s very best. We have always loved the ducks at dusk, in squadron formation, gliding into the centre of the Lake.

Our chefs will prepare and provide bespoke set menus at the Lake House, from comfort food to gastronomic tasting menus with perfectly matched wines.
