Unwind and feel rejuvenated in our peaceful, cosy, rustic, quirky, spacious barn with its very own waterfall in the back garden. We've lovingly restored our 150 yr. old barn into a unique, characterful space and added lots of quirky features and specially mixed colours to calm, soothe and cut off form the stresses of everyday life. Whether you just want to unwind and batten down the hatches or maybe like us, you're creative and need time out to think or work on a project, you're sure to be inspired by the peace and quiet inside the barn. Or feel free to open up the balconette doors and absorb the soothing sound of the nearby waterfall and the huge range of birdsong. At dusk you'll love to hear the owls as they start squawking to each other or you might even catch a glimpse of a red squirrel scurrying across the courtyard!
The barn nestles in a gorgeous valley with stunning surroundings, on the edge of a quaint hamlet, on the Pennine Way, (AONB). Just 35mins from the M6 over the very scenic Hartside Pass, or an hour's beautiful drive from Scotch Corner, it makes for the perfect stopover or longer relaxing break.
Offering outstanding walking right on your doorstep, enriching clean air and an abundance of nature, it's the perfect base from which to explore this remote, beautiful part of Cumbria. What could be more special and stimulating than a good round walk straight from the door. There are plenty to choose from, such as the amazing Ashgill Force waterfall, that you can walk behind, without even getting wet :). After you amble home a different route to complete the round walk, you could close the shutters and prepare a lovely, cosy fire.
If you're looking for a special extra, a projector/dvd player+films is available to hire, to project films on to the big gable wall of the barn, a unique, cosy cinema experience to enhance your stay as the autumn nights draw in, nothing cosier with the wood burner fired up!
After all that at end of the day, you're sure to have a fine nights sleep in our king size bed on the cozy mezzanine, right under the stars, complete with 100% cotton bed linens for maximum comfort.
If you're looking for somewhere to eat, a short drive 6 mile drive into Alston offers a good restaurant and a choice of characterful pubs with some good pub grub on the menu. If you need some essentials there is a handy, friendly local shop two mins.walk away. There's also a couple of small well stocked supermarkets in Alston if you prefer to cook something in the barn.
