Wild Boar Estate - Bowness-on-Windermere
Step onto an island stitched with moors, cliffs, cobbles, where city light meets sea spray and castle stone holds the hush of centuries. Seek a townhouse suite in London or a boutique hideaway in York; choose a serviced apartment by Edinburgh’s closes or a cottage folded into the Cotswolds, with a hot tub under constellations that feel almost close enough to touch. Touch down through Heathrow or Gatwick and drift toward galleries and gardens; Follow rail lines to peaks, lakes, cathedral spires.
