This charming barn conversion is set on a friendly, family-run farm in a peaceful location on the edge of the Lake District National Park, just 5 miles from the lively market town of Cockermouth. Sleeping up to six guests, it’s the perfect base for families or groups of friends keen to explore this tranquil part of the Lakes. The stunning waters of Bassenthwaite (5 miles) and Derwentwater (13 miles) are ideal for gentle lakeside walks and picnics, while nearby walking hotspots like Skiddaw (9 miles) and Blencathra (17 miles) promise more adventurous outings. The sandy beach at Allonby (13 miles) offers a lovely coastal day out, too. Discover Armathwaite Hall Spa (4.5 miles), perfect for a relaxing day after long walks on the fells. Cockermouth is a delight to explore, filled with independent shops, cafes, and excellent restaurants. Popular nearby attractions include The Lakes Distillery (3.5 miles) and the Lake District Wildlife Park (4.5 miles), both great for family visits.

Step inside and you’ll find yourself in a welcoming entrance hall that leads into the open-plan kitchen, living, and dining area. The kitchen is fully equipped with modern appliances, perfect for rustling up meals after a day of exploring, while the living area includes a Smart TV for relaxed evenings in. Upstairs there are two comfortable bedrooms—one double and one twin—as well as a bathroom with a shower over the bath, WC, and basin. Guests also have access to shared facilities next door, including a laundry room with washing machines, books, DVDs, and board games to borrow. The neighbouring games room is perfect for a bit of fun, featuring a pool table, dartboard, music system, and additional seating.

Outside, there’s plenty to enjoy in the shared grounds—have a picnic by the pond, meet some of the friendly farm animals including goats, alpacas, and owls, or let the kids burn off energy in the children’s play park. With private parking and a relaxed rural setting, this home from home offers everything you need for a peaceful and memorable Lake District escape.
