Ellerhow was built in the Victorian era, from Westmorland stone and slate, which still includes some of its original features including some cornices, stairs and spindles,
It is a three story property, end terrace with a small front garden and patio that the guests can use,
The house is my main residence, I live on the ground floor of the house, I also have one tenant(very quiet and polite) who lives in the top floor, rear room of the house.
This has been our house since 2007, although I have lived in Windermere since 1998,
I have been a time served carpenter for the last 35 years and my partner originally from New Zealand runs a fused glass art studio in Windermere center.
