Experience truly unique surroundings on the edge of the Lake District National Park, spending quality time with loved ones in a converted train carriage cottage. The uniquely updated property offers bundles of charm and plenty of comforts in its interiors, complete with two bedrooms and shared spaces accommodating four guests and two dogs on a single storey. Continue the railway theme throughout your stay and explore the area on the Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway, taking the 7-mile ‘La’al Ratty’ steam train ride throughout the awe-inspiring Eskdale Valley.
Ornate wooden panelling and painted features capture the original charm of this converted train carriage, setting the holiday home apart from other nearby properties. Step inside and feel at home in the snuggly lounge, a place with a wood burner-effect electric fire adding warmth and a captivating glow to the space. Along the corridor, a dine-in kitchen is a place to prepare food and dine, although you can also step out into the patio area with a picnic bench and eat out there. Also outdoors, the sensory garden is an appealing, unique addition. Back indoors, find two cosy bedrooms and two spacious bathrooms to complete the property’s offering.
Offering a heritage railway station with the steam train as its main attraction, the village of Ravenglass is an ever-popular place to visit on the Cumbrian coast. For cyclists, the Eskdale Trail is a beloved local route, inviting you to take the train from the village to Dalegarth (7 miles) and then down an 8.5-mile route through the Scafell range foothills and along the ever-pleasant woodlands of the Eskdale Valley. For those who prefer to explore on foot, follow a route from the Ravenglass Roman Bath House (0.5 miles) along the River Esk to admire splendid sights.
