Escape to this superbly renovated barn in Brampton, Cumbria, for a cosy stay for two. With wonderful walks, a bubbling hot tub, and an enclosed garden, this dog-friendly property is a paradise for humans and hounds alike.

Instantly feel the everyday stresses melt away as you pull up to the serene countryside of this stunning cottage. Admire your surroundings of open fields and livestock before ushering your pup inside to discover a stylishly renovated open-plan living space. Make a cup of tea in the modern, shaker-style kitchen and offer some treats to your furry guest, before starting to whip up tasty meals with the ingredients you sourced earlier in your trip. The private garden entices curious canines to easily sniff out their surroundings while their two-legged owners soak away their troubles in the steamy hot tub. On nippy evenings, enjoy nights in front of the cosy wood burner with a movie on the SmartTV and the chance to admire the rustic interiors. Say goodnight to your pooch, and head upstairs to the sumptuous king-size bedroom with plenty of storage space and gorgeous views of the Cumbrian countryside. Completing the property is the boutique-style bathroom featuring a copper free-standing bath with glorious views - the perfect end to the perfect day.

Dog walkers and keen adventurers will love the cottage's immediate access to fantastic walking and hiking routes. Scramble along the challenging route of Gelt Woods (7 miles), where pups and their owners can enjoy winding woodland paths, scenic riverside views, and historic sites. Grab your weekly shopping from the picturesque towns of Longtown or Brampton, both within 5 miles, or venture over to Gretna Green for some quality retail therapy.

The cottage is a beautiful quaint comfortable place to stay with amazing views of the surrounding countryside. The owners Mandy & Jed were extremely helpful and great hosts. The hamper was delicious as were the fresh farm eggs. The card & prosecco for my birthday was a lovely surprise too. The highland cows came to visit everyday and it was lovRead moreely to see the ducks & ponies. The hot tub was a fab place to relax after a nice walk, before putting the log burner on (enough logs to last the week was a bonus). We will definitely be back. Our furry baby had a great experience for his 1st holiday meeting new people, dogs and animals and running around in the farm fields. We were lucky enough to have some great weather and enjoyed our hiking days as well as relaxing days at the cottage. Thank you for a wonderful break. Hide
