Low Water End has almost magical properties! Hidden away
in the heart of Arthur Ransome country with enough grounds
for children to play all day without complaining, with
lake frontage, boats, a slipway and not a computer game,
TV or video in sight.
Coniston Water is a peaceful lake. Readers of ‘Swallows
and Amazons’ will recognise many of the settings
in the story: the secret harbour on ‘Wild Cat’
island, ‘Octopus’ lagoon and so on. Click

details about Coniston Water
Approximately 360 years ago a cottage was built on the
western shore at the southern end of Coniston Water. For
many years it was a farm or part of one. (A local farmer
is reputed to have kept his horse in what is now the Old
Cottage!) It still boast the original stone staircase
to the upper floor and low traditional beams.
What is now known as 'Low Water End' is
a property with two self catering holiday cottages with
200 yards of lake frontage, at the southern end of Coniston
Water in the beautiful Lake District. It covers approximately
3 acres of land, part wood, part marsh, part lawn, between
the road and the lake shore. It is unspoilt and very secluded.
It was eventually brought in 1953 by the grandparents
of the current owners.
