This charming barn conversion in the peaceful village of Orton is ideal for anyone looking for a restful escape in the Cumbrian countryside. In the living space, there’s underfloor heating and a wood-burning stove for warming up after long walks or bike rides – while outside, you’ll find a picnic bench – the perfect spot to enjoy a light lunch on sunny days. If you’re staying with furry friends, you’ll need to keep an eye on them in the garden due to the livestock in the adjacent field.

About The Lake District
Poets and novelists have often escaped to the Lake District for a spot of inspiration. Famously, Wordsworth pondered about daffodils and clouds during his time here. The undulating hills are tracked with drystone walls while sheep graze, and farmsteads enjoy untouched beauty for miles around. England’s biggest lake, Windermere, cuts through a valley, sleek as glass and hosts a litany of cosy-pub-filled towns and water sports venues along its shores....
