The Country House - Lyth Valley

With space to welcome multi-generational families or friends celebrating a special occasion, this house in Cumbria’s spectacular Lyth Valley offers nine en-suite bedrooms, wonderful country views and spacious grounds which your canine companions will love.

This unique holiday property offers flexible space for everyone. Get together in the ground-floor bar area (bring your own drinks!) and dine at the restaurant-style tables before settling down for the evening at one of the seating areas - perhaps by the ornamental fireplace, or near the windows to admire the stunning views. Cooks will love experimenting in the commercial kitchen, or you may decide to forego the effort entirely and hire a caterer. Of the nine bedrooms, three are dog-friendly and on the lower-ground floor, accessed via external stone steps. The remaining six bedrooms (of which two also have sofa beds) are on the first floor. All the bedrooms have Smart TVs, tea- and coffee-making facilities and robes, plus en-suites - either a shower room or a bathroom with a separate bath and rainfall shower. You’re also spoilt for choice in terms of outside space:, enjoy the hot tub, dine al fresco on the balcony or the patio, or explore the extensive grounds (reached via the stone steps) where hounds and children alike can run off their excess energy.

This timeless pastoral area, famed for its damsons, offers stunning landscapes to explore as well as picturesque villages and regular festivals and events. The house is just 6 miles from Bowness-on-Windermere, which offers a bustling selection of pubs, shops and places to eat, as well as boat trips and water sports. The house is also only 6.5 miles from the National Trust’s Sizergh, where you can explore the 1,600-acre estate with your furry friends.
