Welcome to Cottage at Brathen, a charming barn conversion tucked away on a quiet lane in the picturesque Cumbrian village of Greystoke.
This thoughtfully designed "upside-down" holiday let offers a peaceful retreat in the heart of the Eden Valley, combining characterful charm with modern comfort. As you enter the cottage, you’ll find a welcoming ground floor layout featuring a comfortable double bedroom, a cosy single bedroom, and a stylish family shower room—ideal for couples, friends, or small families. Upstairs, the bright and spacious open-plan lounge, kitchen, and dining area are perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. With exposed stone walls, original beams, and tasteful furnishings, this space beautifully blends rustic charm with contemporary living. A door from the living area opens directly onto a tranquil garden, ideal for al fresco dining or simply soaking in the peaceful surroundings. A second double bedroom on this floor provides additional space and flexibility for guests.
Greystoke itself is steeped in character, with a traditional village green, a local pub where you can enjoy a meal or drink in the evening after exploring the area, and a popular outdoor community swimming pool just a short walk away. It’s a perfect base for walkers and cyclists, with numerous trails leading into the stunning Lake District National Park and the rolling Pennines. We even have our very own castle! A short drive brings you to Ullswater, where you can enjoy boat trips, lakeside walks, or the iconic Aira Force waterfall. Historic Penrith is nearby, offering independent shops, a castle, and access to the scenic Eden Valley railway. For family adventures, Whinlatter Forest Park and the Rheged Centre provide fun-filled days out. Whether you’re seeking outdoor adventure or a peaceful escape, Cottage at Brathen offers a wonderful home-from-home in a truly special location.
