Birchfield is a large bungalow on the edge of Portinscale village in the Lake District. This spacious property sits just metres from Derwentwater's shore with spectacular mountain views across the garden. The location inspired Beatrix Potter herself.

The bungalow sleeps 4 guests in two bedrooms - one double with garden views and one twin. Both rooms have TVs. A bright sun room contains a sofa bed for two additional guests. The stylish kitchen-diner includes an electric oven with gas hob and microwave.
