Your Hidden Sanctuary in the Lake District's Pristine Wilderness
Once deemed "No man’s land" and still echoing the essence of "a place that time forgot," our charming retreat is nestled in the heart of the West Lake District National Park – a UNESCO World Heritage site. Situated within our own 40 acres of captivating landscapes and adjacent to Penny Hill Farm, of Beatrix Potter fame, within sight of England’s highest mountain Scafell Pike, our thoughtfully renovated 18th-century 5 bedroom guesthouse beckons you to immerse yourself in its tranquil ambience. Whether you seek relaxation, village experiences, local history immersion, or thrilling outdoor adventures, you'll find it here.
Home Away From Home
As you step into the house, you will be greeted by the beautiful Broughton Moor green slate flooring, sourced from the local Burlington Slate Quarry, ensuring a steady and secure footing. In winter, the warmth emanating from the stove, set within a 300-year-old fireplace, will further enhance your welcome. Spanning 210 square metres, our guesthouse seamlessly blends historic charm with modern comfort. Each room is carefully appointed to ensure your utmost comfort. As night falls, you can savour hearty home cooked meals in our cosy dining room, or step outside to gaze at the starry dark sky with a drink in hand.
Explore the Timelessly Splendid Tapestry of the Lakeland
Whether you prefer serene lakeside strolls or challenging adventures on the fells and pikes, the Lake District offers inspiration at every turn. You can dive into wild swims in nature's embrace or uncover ancient mysteries along historic trails, including prehistoric stone circles and trails once trodden by Vikings and Romans. Additionally, you can explore exotic gardens, heritage beaches, and scenic golf courses or engage in a wide range of modern outdoor activities. Furthermore, you can immerse yourself in local culture by practicing accents.
