Located in thirty-five acres of lush fields, this renovated farmhouse oozes rustic luxury from the offset. Woodlands, streams, ponds, and limestone clint pavements make up this unique landscape, with your glorious stone cottage at the centre of it all. We love the outdoor seating on the verdant lawns, as well as patios and even a garden kitchen with its very own pizza oven. Mediterranean alfresco dining might appear to be on the cards, but the interiors are perfect for a classic Sunday roast. Step inside the living space to find original timber beams lining the ceilings above the family dining space. The atmosphere is incredibly homely and welcoming, especially when the log-burner is lit up in the inglenook. With a modern country kitchen, you’ve got...

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.
