“Excellent holiday cottage”
Charming cottage in an idyllic setting. Spacious, comfy and clean. Well equipped kitchen and easy access to the Lake District and North Pennines. Penrith, 12 mins away, has all the amenities. Owners were friendly and helpful. Highly recommended!
Details
Barn Owl Cottage is a 17thC barn conversion within the grounds of Upfront Gallery and Coffee Shop. Great character with lots of exposed beams and stonework.
Upstairs lounge with views onto surrounding fields. Open-plan lounge, dining area and kitchen with laminate floor, under-floor heating and wood-burning stove. Downstairs there is a double bedroom and twin bedroom, plus bathroom. There is also a single bedroom upstairs.
The cottage has a private driveway and a fenced and gated private patio garden area with picnic bench and garden chairs.
Double doors from lounge open onto a sun balcony with seating for two and stairs leading to garden area.
Cedrus Lodge has been designed to have minimum impact on the environment. Constructed entirely from timber with cedar wood shingle roof and sheep's wool insulation. Rain water is collected and recycled to flush toilets. A large clerestory window along the roof ridge allows natural daylight to flood into the lodge for most of the day. There is full central heating throughout, although minimum energy is needed to heat the property. It is warm in winter and cool in the summer. The rear of the lodge has a private fenced and hedged garden with garden furniture and a large sun deck with uninterrupted views of the surrounding countryside. There is a full length timber balcony to the front of the lodge with a wooden garden bench.
