Nestled in a peaceful spot, this romantic bolthole is situated within a 16th-century barn conversion with beautiful views of the surrounding area. You and your loved one can enjoy days wandering through the countryside or taking to the water, before retreating to this charming cottage for evenings relaxing and unwinding.

One of two properties converted from a 16th-century barn, this characterful home has been thoughtfully designed with traditional features and tasteful decor such as handmade shutters and exposed oak beams. The open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner is a welcoming space for cooking, eating and unwinding after busy days. Get cosy on the sofa in front of the TV after you prepare delicious, romantic meals in the kitchen. When you are ready for some shuteye, head through to the bedroom which has a king-size bed and an en-suite bathroom with a walk-in shower. There is an outdoor space to enjoy too, a charming courtyard with seating, that is shared with the neighbouring property. Guests will also be able to access a shared utility room with laundry facilities.

Travel back in time and take a ride on the steam train at Lakeside and Haverthwaite Heritage Railway (3.5 miles) which offers a nostalgic journey passing spectacular views. If you prefer something a bit more active, head to Lake Windermere (2.5 miles) where you can try your hand at kayaking and other water sports. You will also be spoilt for choice with walking routes and trails, both around the lake and through the winding countryside.

Stunning converted barn in a beautiful and easily accessible location. The barn is well equipped with everything you need and more, especially the kitchen if you eat in as we do! Beautifully clean, excellently well maintained, a shared laundry room with drier if needed for those soggy rainy lake distract days, altho we were lucky with hot weatherRead more. The barn is well insulated too, altho joined to another holiday let you cannot hear anything from next door. There is parking for your car right outside the barn too. Sarah the owner is lovely and welcoming and easy to contact should the need arise. A thoroughly enjoyable stay, which we totally recommend, were even going back again as we enjoyed it so much. Hide
