Our nearest neighbours are 2 fields away. Walk from the door, in any direction, watch ponies, hares & sheep. Try ghyll-scrambling or kayaking, or star gaze - no light pollution. Market town & train station 1 mile. Gastro pubs, castles & river swimming. We use Eco-boiler.
The space
The Hayloft is an upside-down house, with 2 of the double bedrooms on the ground floor in order to take full advantage of the amazing views from the kitchen/sitting room. The bedrooms are spacious, comfortable and thoughtfully furnished. The third double bedroom is in the loft, reached by a steep staircase (like on a boat). It has a balcony overlooking the open plan sitting room. There is a large wood-burning stove, a 32 inch Smart TV and underfloor heating throughout the property.
Outside, you can walk for miles from the front door. Climb to the top of Birkett Knot to see the full sweep of Mallerstang valley below. Sit in the large window and watch hares gallop across the meadow. Pick herbs from the herb garden opposite your front door. Or visit some of the beautiful stately homes close by: Dalemain, Acorn Bank, Lowther Castle....
Or head to Beatrix Potter's house, take a steamer across Ullswater lake, try tasty ice cream or visit the first Quaker meeting house at Briggflatts.
Guest access
You have your own front door, and outside space with table and chairs. You're welcome to use our open-sided Shed with brazier - ideal for al fresco barbecues! There's a picnic table, rope swing, table tennis
and trampoline. You can walk in all directions from the house. Wild Boar Fell is about a mile away, a spectacular climb. There are some great gastro pubs close by.
When our hens are laying, we will provide you with some delicious, yellow-yolked free range fresh eggs, and you can pick fresh herbs from the walled garden opposite your front door.
Other things to note
WiFi is super fast fibre optic connection.
The kitchen is small for 6 keen cooks but fine for ordinary family cooking. There is a beautiful built-in dresser, double oven cooker but a small sink (‘though there is a dishwasher). We are limited to electricity as there is no gas!
Please note that we live next door.
The Hayloft isn’t ideal for wheelchair users. The bedrooms & bathroom are on the ground floor, so that can be useful. And there is only a small step at the entrance. But the ground outside is ‘field grass’ (a little uneven), & you’d need to be able to cope with a fairly long staircase (20 steps or thereabouts).
Young children: due to the open plan style of the living room (with wood burning stove), & stairs, The Hayloft isn’t ideal for adventurous toddlers.
We do have a BBQ, but it is half an oil drum & not ideal unless you’re cooking for large numbers. So you’re probably better off with disposable BBQs. Let us know if you would like to use it, though.
