"And best of all there was a cosy fireplace, which you could burn (new logs provided daily complementary) and which was a great highlight for me."

"It might not be for everyone, but it was great to spend some time in relative isolation, catching up on my sewing in the living area, and enjoying the views."

“The setting itself is a primary draw, placing you directly at the doorstep of spectacular hikes like Helvellyn, with a waterfall just behind the barn and a bus stop conveniently located outside. Inside, the communal fireplace offers a genuine warmth and gathering point, complemented by surprisingly private and comfortable bunk beds. It feels like a thoughtfully equipped basecamp, especially for those seeking straightforward access to the Lakeland fells without sacrificing comfort.”
