Monk Coniston is a Gothic-style Country House once owned by Beatrix Potter, which is leased from the National Trust and occupies a lakeside location with glorious views. Set just north of Coniston Water in the Lake District, views from the main lounge sweep down to the lake and a 20-minute stroll into Coniston village takes you to the famous Old Man of Coniston. Forests, valleys and the surrounding fells make this an area of spectacular scenery. Monk Coniston, designated as non-smoking, has 34 bedrooms equipped with a hair dryer, clock radio and complimentary tea and coffee making facilities. Flatscreen TVs are provided in the bedrooms. Non en-suite bedrooms are available. Guests can relax in the bar or library, enjoy table tennis in the games room or play croquet or putting in the extensive grounds. Accommodation through LateRooms is on a BandB basis. A choice of full English or continental breakfast is offered. All meals are served in an informal, friendly atmosphere at tables for up to 10 guests. Free car parking is available. Please notify the Country House in advance if you intend to arrive after 10.30pm. Bedrooms are available from 2.30pm on the day of arrival and should be vacated by 10am on the day of departure.
