This spacious family-friendly property on a Cumbrian working farm provides a peaceful rural retreat and a brilliant base for exploring the local area. You’ll get to experience life on a dairy farm where chickens and ducks potter around free range; you’ll also get to enjoy fresh farm eggs during your stay.

At the end of a private drive, this charming house has lots of character, space, and original features. The lounge/sunroom is somewhere for you all to relax and dine together, with comfy sofas, a Smart TV and a cosy wood burner, and a dining table and chairs with views across the garden. There’s also a lovely country kitchen. Off the entrance lobby is a shower room and an attractive twin room with an ornamental fire and Smart TV. Upstairs there’s a king bedroom with wooden beams and pine furniture, a cosy single and a smart family bathroom. There’s lots of space in the garden, where you can sit surrounded by nature and wildlife.

Sitting in the heart of stunning Cumbrian countryside, the house is only 8 miles from Carlisle, with lots of shops, eateries, and exciting attractions to visit, including Carlisle Castle (7 miles away), which is well worth visiting to discover its turbulent history across nine centuries. Tullie House Museum and Art Gallery is 7 miles away and anyone interested in planes will love the Solway Aviation Museum, 17 miles’ drive from the house at Carlisle Airport – it was RAF Crosby-on-Eden’s airfield during WWII. Solway Coast AONB (Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty) is a 13-mile drive, and the famous Scottish village of Gretna Green is 17 miles away. You’ll be spoilt for choice for walks during your stay with pretty routes from the door and the stunning Lake District Park National Park just 6 miles away.

This is a beautiful accommodation for a family get away in a stunning location. The cottage was clean and had everything you needed for a homely stay. The log fire was amazing for cosy nights. Hosts are extremely friendly and go out of there way to make you feel at home. Any time we had a question they responded immediately in a lovely, polite mannRead moreer. The homemade loaf of bread, flapjacks, fresh milk and jam were all a delicious bonus. Hope to go back again one day! Hide

Our stay at the Coach house was lovely and we were made to feel very welcome. We were provided with everything that we would have needed and were pleasantly surprised by home-made flapjacks that were very delicious. The cottage was clean and there were plenty of things to do - TV, board games and several fliers with information of different things Read moreto do in the area. Hide

A beautiful cottage for a working farm, very well located and comfortable. The cottage has been presented beautifully, including beautiful amenities and a glorious sunny lounge in the afternoons. Absolutely beautiful.

This property was highly recommended by friends and we were not disappointed. It was an excellent spot from which to visit the northern Lakes and the Solway coast. The owner could not have been more helpful. She also placed some home baking and other goodies in the kitchen to brighten our arrival. We would be happy to return.

Lovely cottage, owners are on site and were brilliant, very welcoming and very helpful. Beautiful welcome basket with fresh milk, eggs both from the farm, home made jam, fresh fruit and many other things. We've stayed in many cottages over the years and I can say that this one is one of the very best. Absolutely superbly presented cottage on a workRead moreing dairy farm. I would thoroughly recommend it and wouldn't hesitate to return. Many thanks. Hide
