Samling
Style A very English retreat
Setting Lakeside wilderness
Nestled in soft undulating hills and perfect woods rolling down to Lake Windermere is the Samling. You couldn’t ask for a more ideal location – right on the water, but still secluded. The beauty of the woodland location is that you can step outside your room and start walking – we soon found ourselves in forest as lush and dense as a Malaysian jungle.
