Wander into this gorgeous rural retreat and find yourselves in the lounge/diner. Light the wood burner then watch your pup settle himself down nearby while you find something to watch on the TV. For alternative viewing, members of your party might like to head through to the snug with its TV and DVD player. Take a step up into the kitchen/dinner when it’s time to prepare food for hounds or humans, then lay the table in the dining section of the lounge/diner, which is also a step up from the comfortable seating space. You also have a king-size bedroom with an en-suite shower room, plus a cloakroom with a WC, and a utility room with a washing machine and a tumble dryer at this level. Another king-size room and two twins are on the first floor of the barn, together with the family bathroom. Enjoy breakfast out in the sunshine on warm days while your contented canine noses about. There is space for storing bikes at the property, as well as parking for four cars.
Head straight out together on exhilarating walks along Whinlatter Pass, which winds its way through the Thornthwaite Forest and captures dramatic views over Bassenthwaite Lake. Drive 3 miles to Whinlatter Forest Path for leafy strolls through the woodland with your delighted dog by your side.
