The perfect size for solo travellers or couples, this charming retreat is located just 1.5 miles from the centre of Ulverston, a traditional market town which has a choice of shops, pubs and places to eat. The birthplace of Stan Laurel (of Laurel and Hardy fame), the town has a programme of festivals throughout the year. For an easy, level walk, stroll alongside the Ulverston Canal, 2.5 miles there and back, with a pub lunch in the middle. Discover the delightful coastal villages of Bardsea, Baycliff, Aldingham and Newbiggin, all within 7 miles. Alternatively, venture into the Lake District and discover its array of beauty spots and iconic sites. Head to Windermere (10 miles), England’s largest natural lake, and hop on a boat cruise for incredible natural scenery, or explore Coniston Water (11 miles) by boat, kayak, canoe or paddleboard.
The detached annexe is set over two storeys and has a sleek and stylish interior, with everything you’ll need to make your stay relaxing. Head inside to find an open-plan living space, with pale walls and touches of vivid colour. After a day spent exploring, you can pull down the blinds and sink into the soft seating with a good book or a favourite show on the Smart TV. The efficient kitchen includes a microwave and a dishwasher, ensuring your holiday cooking and cleaning up are quick and easy, and there’s a breakfast bar where two people can dine comfortably. Completing the ground floor is an elegant shower room. The super-king-size bedroom takes up the whole of the first floor, with soft carpeting, skylights and double doors leading to a small balcony, from which you’ll have far-reaching rural views. A very special feature of the bedroom is the Smart TV that rises up from the bed frame when in use.
Glazed doors lead to a patio and then a large, lawned garden with a picnic table and a stream running alongside with a small wooden bridge. This lovely space is perfect for canine companions to play as you enjoy the views of tranquil fields beyond.
