A characterful upside down barn conversion near Bassenthwaite with upstairs views of the fells, shared garden space, parking for two cars and a dog-friendly welcome for one pet.
Converted from a 17th century barn on a working hill farm, this characterful cottage offers a peaceful base around 2 miles south east of Bassenthwaite. The upside down layout places the open plan living space upstairs, making the most of the views of the fells and giving you a wonderful sense of space and light. Surrounded by countryside, it is ideal for guests looking to step away from busy routines, reconnect with nature and enjoy the quieter northern Lake District.
The bedrooms are on the ground floor, reached via a few steps from the hallway. A double room has dual aspect windows with views, while the twin room features zip and link beds that can be made into a super king size on request, making the cottage a good fit for a family or two couples. The twin room also includes a wash basin, and the family bathroom has a shower over the bath. Upstairs, exposed beams add to the barn character, and the windows draw your eye straight to the fells. Comfortable seating gathers around an electric coal effect fire and a TV, with a DVD player for easy evenings.
The kitchen is set up for straightforward self catering, with everything needed for simple meals at the dining table. Outside, guests can enjoy shared use of a garden with neighbouring cottage guests, a lovely spot for sunset views on warm evenings. Private parking for two cars is provided, one well behaved dog is welcome, and shared laundry facilities are available in an outbuilding. It is a calm, homely retreat with scenery that encourages you to get out and explore.
No smoking.
