Sandhaven is a magnificent Edwardian mansion, built during the early years of the First World War — a time when traditional elegance met modern comfort. Designed in the final days of the servant era, this generously proportioned home is ideal for large families or groups of friends seeking a memorable countryside gathering filled with history, charm, and character.
Sleeping up to 21 guests across nine bedrooms, Sandhaven offers ample space and comfort. Three and a half bathrooms, including one en suite, ensure convenience for all. Two ground-floor bedrooms provide wide access doors, suitable for guests with limited mobility, while additional camping mattresses can be supplied in bedroom nine if needed.
Every corner of the house reflects the owner’s passion for heritage, with antique furnishings and homely touches that make guests feel instantly at ease. For those seeking an extra-special experience, optional services can be arranged, including private catering (£15–£45 per person), murder mystery events (from £300), or even a private hot tub.
The property is filled with features that make it perfect for group stays: board games, a trampoline, slackline, swing, fire pit, BBQ, and even river swimming — with wetsuits provided. There’s parking for up to ten cars, and well-behaved pets are welcome in the cosy kitchen, complete with an Aga and sofas.
Surrounded by sweeping views of the Solway Plain, Sandhaven is a wonderful base for exploring the Lake District, Hadrian’s Wall, and the Scottish Borders. Guests often spot hares in the garden and deer in the orchard, while evenings can be spent watching films on the big screen or sharing stories around the fire pit.
With the cathedral city of Carlisle, local pubs, and the award-winning Hidden River Café nearby, Sandhaven offers the perfect blend of grandeur, comfort, and countryside tranquillity.
