Description

This charming cottage is an ideal rural retreat for couples who want to relax in tranquil surroundings and explore the best that Cumbria and the South Lakes have to offer, with easy access to other gorgeous areas of English countryside.

Despite the property s rural location in the charming village of Barbon, with its village shop and pub, you re still only 3 miles from the market town of Kirkby Lonsdale. Here, food and history lovers will be spoilt for choice as there are delis, a weekly market and a choice of eateries all nestled amongst the town s historic, cobbled streets and squares. Walking/cycling trails from your doorstep allow you to explore the area s fells, dales, rivers, woods and more. You re close to where Cumbria, Lancashire and Yorkshire meet, as well as 14 miles from Kendal, the gateway to the Lake District, and the largest lake, Windermere, just beyond that with lakeside walks, boat trips and other water based activities available. A self contained wing of a Georgian house, some parts of this stone cottage date back to the 17th century, but you can rest assured that it has been beautifully renovated to ensure the modern visitor has a comfortable stay. High vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and natural tones make it feel light, airy and spacious throughout; it is the perfect place to unwind at the end of a busy day exploring. After parking on the gravel driveway, head up the five steps to the front door. On entering, you ll find yourself in the kitchen/diner, which is well equipped with everything you ll need, including an electric oven and hob, fridge/freezer, microwave and dishwasher. There is ample room around the table whether you re dining, playing a game or planning the next day s adventure. Stepping down two steps, you arrive in the lounge, which is very spacious and has a range of seats to suit your preferences alongside a TV. The king size bedroom is also on the ground floor and is just as bright and charming as the living area, with neutral tones making it easy to relax. Completing the accommodation is a good size, contemporary bathroom with a shower over the bath. Outside, there is a lovely seating area where you can enjoy a morning coffee or an evening glass of wine. You could even enjoy a spot of al fresco dining against the backdrop of the peaceful countryside. There is parking for two cars and bike storage is available.
