Everything you need to cook up a feast can be found in the kitchen. Enjoy the treats inside the champagne welcome hamper, which include Debbie’s award winning homemade bread and cake, the perfect start to your holiday.

The kitchen is connected to a spacious lounge with sofas just waiting to snuggle up on.  Why not watch a film, disappear into a good book or catch up with the outside world using the superfast WIFI.  The wood burning stove is ready to light in winter and for summer the back door opens up to the sunset patio with a comfy all weather sofa, perfect for that early evening glass of wine.

The walled cottage garden has lots of space to relax, pop yourselves under the great copper beech tree with a book, or enjoy lunch in the sunshine.  As the evening draws in you can light a fire in the kadai fire bowl for a bbq then add some logs and watch the flames flicker or luxuriate in the outdoor cast iron bath as the stars above bring in the night.

Taking the old stone steps that lead upstairs, wind your way up to the changing room.  An oak framed wall and wardrobe on one side, dressing table on the other, a relaxing space to get ready in the morning.

Through the doorway you enter the heavenly bathroom – the roll top cast iron bath is double ended with plenty of room for a candle lit soak for two.  There’s a large separate shower too with lovely toiletries from the Bath House to use, along with huge towels and fluffy robes to relax in.  The window overlooks both the cottage garden and the fells beyond.

In the bedroom stands a magnificent four poster kingsize bed, made by Richard from reclaimed timber.  Climb in, gaze at the 400 year old oak beamed rafters and drift off to sleep on the super Sealy mattress, made here in Cumbria.  The view from bed lasts for miles, all the way to Blencathra, 30 miles away!  Underfoot you’ll find locally made Herdwick wool carpets, one of the area’s traditional breeds of sheep.

If you have family there’s an additional tiny room for your little one, just big enough for a travel cot or z-bed, both of which can be provided.  The sloped ceiling makes it a fab hideaway for youngsters who want their own little den (under 10’s only).
