THIS IMPORTANT SALE IS DELAYED UNTIL
THE 17TH OF AUGUST,

IN CONSEQUENCE OF THE DISSOLUTION OF PARLIAMENT.
WINDERMERE LAKE.—CROFT LODGE.
The great Feature of the Alpine Mountain Scenery, proudly
standing alone for its high renown and multifarious Beau-
ties, a combination which could alone be acquired by judg-
ment, great taste, and considerable outlay. It Approaches
the Lake, its rich Meadows extending to 50 Acres in the
Valley, independently of the Rising Grounds, which in-
clude altogether near 80 Acres ; the splendid and exceed-
ingly correct taste in Furniture, fine Collection of Original
Pictures, Cellar of the Choicest Wines, may all be added
to the purchase.

MR. GEORGE ROBINS is flattered that he has been
selected by the worthy proprietor,
JAMES BRANCKER, Esq., of Liverpool,
to offer to PUBLIC COMPETITION, at the Auction
Mart, London, on TUESDAY, August 17, at Twelve, and in
consequence of a recent severe domestic affliction,
THE SALE WILL BE PEREMPTORY,

a singularly desirable and highly
IMPORTANT FREEHOLD PROPERTY,
which, from its countless beauties, is not easily approached,
and still less by the imperfect sketch that is about to be at-
tempted. It is not a little fortunate for the honoured indi-
vidual who has been preferred to bring this splendid estate
under public review, that its indescribable beauties are on
record in the minds of every one who has visited Wetmore-
land during the progress of its completion. It is but faint
praise to say that it is
THE LEADING FEATURE AMID THE LAKE
SCENE RY,
since nothing, even within these hallowed regions, has ven-
tured to aspire to such a distinction; and the great difficulty
that presses upon Mr. Robins's mind is, that in selecting
from the countless beauties that prevail everywhere, he will
necessarily in this abridged statement leave too many unno-
ticed.

THE MANSION IS OF AN IMPOSING CHARACTER,
ERECTED ENTIRELY OF STONE.

The order of Architecture may be a little equivocal, or rather,

it presents an admixture of the several orders, rendered perL
fect by the taste of the liberal proprietor. A drawing, which
will accompany the printed particulars, must necessarily be
an humble effort to bring. such a combination of taste and
judgment into so limited a space; it will, however, most as-
suredly give such a powerful claim to admiration, as to in-
cline all such as can afford, and are anxious, to
APPROACII ELYSIUM IN THIS WORLD,
to pay an early visit to Croft Lodge, where, indeed, he will
find just cause to exclaim, " How imperfectly has Paradise
been represented in this feeble attempt."
The situation was originally selected wisely ; it is seated
on a lawn of considerable beauty, protected from the north
and easterly winds by the almost interminable hills which
form

AN AMPHITHEATRE CLOTHED IN VERDURE,

where the flocks and herds ascend to the very summit, to
vary and improve the landscape. From the mountain-top is
presented a scene that it would be in vain to attempt to de-
scribe; for it has been truly said,
IT BEGGARS ALL DESCRIPTION.

In progressing through the winding progress of the acclivity,
it is almost impossible for the imagination to arrive at a full
appreciation of the
HARMONIOUS COMBINATION,
which seems to increase in beauty and effect at every fresh
break or peep which nature has vouchsafed through the
woods. It is on this fearful height that Windermere is seen
in all its glory, where
" The sunbeam slumbers, and the leaves scarce curled
By the cool breeze, their verdant tresses lave
Translucent through its tide."
The little intermediate space from that vast water is seen
with

THE CONFLUENCE OF THE TWO BEAUTIFUL
RIVERS, THE BRATHAY AND ROTHAY,

which are parallel with the Terrace-walk ; the former river,
with its ornamental bridge, is a great feature, extending in
the other direction to a similitude with
THE FAMED VIRGINIA WATERS,

(which are left at an immeasurable distance,) and to the
Swiss cottage in its purest taste ; its harbour and the splendid
river which alone separates it from the lake. The ambition
of the respected proprietor has lead him to prepare a fleet
in this dock which is more than equal to compete with the
once favoured flotilla on Virginia Water, and her Yacht,

THE PRIDE OF THE LAKE,
CARRIES THE FLAG OF THE COMMODORE.
But to return to the mansion. It is ornamented in front by
a balcony and gallery of singular beauty, the windows are
of plate glass, and within it will be found the most perfect
accommodation that a reasonable mind can desire, observing
that comfort in its best form has been regarded to a great
extent, while the enormous expenditure, which is conspicu-
ous everywhere, has been disregarded, and only auxiliary to
the view of rendering it quite perfect. It is, in fact,
A PALACE IN MINIATURE,

in the most comprehensive sense. A splendid conservatory
adorns one wing, and there are hot and cold baths ; the
rooms are of the best proportions ; the bed-chambers in
abundance, and well constituted with dressing-rooms. The
principal suite of rooms are fitted up in unusually good
taste ; they are in communication, and nearly the whole are
ornamented by massive mahogany doors, with chimney-
pieces of pure statuary marble. The domestic array ge-
ment may be accounted perfection, and the offices within and
without so complete as to leave nothing to be desired. The
chimneys, of castellated form, are so admirably arranged,
that smoke and its annoyance have necessarily abdicated.
It may be well to recur again to the situation. If the reader
be weary of the description, the writer promises he will not
be so when the reality is brought under his review. Win-
dermere it is known is always accounted
THE LEVIATHAN OF THE LAKES,

and Croft Lodge partakes of its beauties infinitely ')eyond
any of its rival candidates, inasmuch as its breadth and its
loveliness increases as it approaches nearer to the Elysium,
and terminates close to the spot where the confluence of the
rivers takes place. The beauteous valley seen in all direc-
tions, is nowhere more perfect than viewed during the pro-
gress through the rocks and precipitous hills.
The luxuriant county in which Croft Lodge is ernbosomed ;
the lucid expanse of its lake ; the distant mountains lifting
their glacier summits to heaven—the combination must be
felt while gazing on this scene, and a delicious tranquility
will steal upon the heart arid harmonise with every kindly
feeling. It will exert a sort of fascination over the senses,
and hold the spectator for a time in mute and breathless con-
templation.
The road to Ambleside separates the mansion from the
gardens and river, it is the subject of constant admiration
from all those who frequent the lakes, and equally eulogised
by those who have benefitted by a tour into Switzerland.
The only parallel case which Mr. Robins can bring to his
recollection is the
SCENERY OF LOCH LOMOND,
and it becomes matter of doubt which to prefer ; this truism
will leave the reader to judge of the treat that is in store, and
it ought be added, that the poets of the present age have
selected this vicinage, with a view to perpetuate their fame.
Coleridge, Wordsworth, and Southey have reason to be
proud of the auxiliaries found in this earthly Paradise to aid
in their prolific muse. The situation is proverbial for longe-
vity, and an East Indian who has amassed considerable
wealth at the expense of his constitution, need only to pos-
sess Croft Lodge to ensure an immediate renewal of a lease
for a very prolonged life. The society is everywhere around
of the best description. Those who would be gay will find
abundant opportunity, not forgetting the pleasurable scenes
which are constantly presented by the regattas. To conclude
it may be well to observe, that the lakes are now within 14
hours' ride of the metropolis of London.
It will be on view six weeks antecedently to the sale, only
by means of a descriptive particular, and a drawing and plan
of the estate (at is each), to be had at the Waterloo, Liver-
pool ; the best Hotels at Manchester; Plough, Cheltenham ;
Hotel, Leamington ; the Auction Mart ; and at Mr, GEO.
RoniNs's Offices, London.
