Converted from a 19th Century barn by a local craftsman, the cottage has huge thick stone walls, a very large, inglenook fireplace many original features including owl holes (now glassed in), plenty of oak beams and is full of all the modern conveniences you would expect in a luxury Lakeland cottage.
The cottage is full of charm and character and is furnished with a number of antiques and local crafts. The lounge has a large bay window which lets the sunlight flood in, 3 seater settee, 2 matching arm chairs, remote control TV, DVD, CD player, payphone, books galore, and even a chair made out of an old oak barrel. The large inglenook fireplace is the focal point of the lounge and logs & coal are provided free of charge. The perfect way to relax at the end of the day.
The bedrooms sleep up to 6 people. There is a romantic 4-poster bedroom, a twin bedded room overlooking the garden and fields and a 3rd bedroom with full sized bunk beds, a few children’s toys, a stair gate and full size travel cot.
The cottage also has a high chair.
There is also a bed settee enabling the cottage to sleep up to 8 people.

The modern bathroom is equipped with bath, basin, toilet, and electric shower.
Outside, to the rear, the cottage has its own lovely, private garden overlooking open fields, a patio area, garden furniture, and barbecue. The cottage also has its own garage for the sole use of guests.
The kitchen has a new double oven with a halogen/ceramic hob, a new good sized fridge/freezer, automatic washing machine, dishwasher, tumble drier, microwave and everything you’d expect to have in your own luxury cottage and maybe a bit more too.
