For those who like catering for themselves The Byre has recently been created from the barn which adjoins the farm cottage. Available all year round, The Byre offers peace and quiet in a wonderfully picturesque location. For relaxing evenings The Byre is well heated and has colour TV, DVD and Video.
The Byre: A barn, formerly used for keeping cattle on the ground floor, with hay stored on the first floor known as a hay loft. The Byre has been converted to a very high standard with oak wood used throughout, retaining the original beams.
There is solid oak flooring with scatter rugs, apart from bedrooms which have pure Herdwick wool fitted carpets made locally in Kendal.
The Byre has 2 bedrooms on the ground floor along with a bathroom which has a bath with shower over.
The first floor is open plan with kitchen at one end, dining area in the middle and lounge area with TV, wood burning stove and two leather sofas at the end with the large opening which was the barn doors. There is also a shower room with toilet and basin on the first floor.
The Kitchen has dish washer, washing machine, microwave, fridge freezer, double electric oven and separate electric hob.
The whole place is very comfortable and kept warm with oil fired central heating. Water is heated by combi boiler. All windows and doors are double glazed and the walls and roof have been insulated for really cosy comfort even in the middle of Winter.
The views are phenomenal looking up Deepdale towards Fairfield, onto Aiken Crag at the back and across to Place Fell at the front.
