“Hearty welcome off the beaten track”
Quiet rural setting, off the crowds and easy links to Lakes and sea. A spacious conversion that offers all the comfort you'd expect, visible timber roofing and stonewalls, furnished with taste. Beautiful garden and field with enchanted nooks and niches to discover Not to mention the outstanding helpfulness of hosts Nick and Julia.
Reply from The Hayloft at 23 Aug 2018
Hans-Peter and his wife, Brigitte were lovely guests, and were reluctant to ask for our help even when they had car problems. We were of course more than happy to assist where we could! I just wish I was as fluent in another language as they both were in English. Our accommodation was also left spotless and they were considerate and friendly guests at all times- we hope you may return as we would love to welcome you back.
Details
Located in a peaceful rural hamlet in the Lake District National Park. Easy access to fells, lakes and Solway coast. A 17th Century converted stone barn with lofted ceilings and exposed stone walls.
The Hayloft has a king-size bed with 100% cotton bed linen with duvets. A cot is available for babies up to 15kg in weight. Plenty of books, games and things for the children. Garden to enjoy, with garden furniture, picnic tables and barbecue facilities.
Ideally situated in a quiet hamlet, forming part of the Allerdale Ramble near Bassenthwaite Lake, you can amble along to the next village admiring the valley scenery with the River Derwent below. Keswick is 8 miles away. You can take a 20 minute drive to the beach at Mawbray, along the Solway Coast, a very accessible area of outstanding natural beauty with long flat beaches and coastal walks. More strenuous walks are Skiddaw or the Buttermere range.
We can recommend something less daunting that still give spectacular views. Other activities nearby include horse riding, fishing, canoeing, sailing, Whinlatter Forest park, golf and well-established biking routes to suit all abilities. Cockermouth has plenty of restaurants from traditional Chinese, Indian, vegetarian and Italian and some very interesting local pubs and brews. So if you fancy dining out there is plenty of choice and some will deliver to the door. Arrival time 16.00 and departure time 10.30. All children welcome.
We provide unlimited free wireless Wi-Fi at 3Mbps speed.
