Cottage holiday in Under Loughrigg, near Ambleside - sleeps 4

Little Barn Cottage
2 bedrooms, sleeps 4

Peace and relaxation awaits at this delightful barn conversion where you can drink in the panoramic views from the balcony.

Little Barn is a traditional, detached, stone-built converted barn that dates back to the 17th century. It is set in natural, wooded gardens that extend to 2 acres. This two bedroom, two bathroom property is perfectly located for panoramic views from a coveted rural location, yet just a few minutes’ walk from the pubs, restaurants and shops of Ambleside. It’s about a 12 minute walk.
Set into the side of Loughrigg Fell, Little Barn is in one of the Lake District’s most beautiful vantage points with a view of the sweeping fells that, from time to time, host the fast fliers of the RAF.

Lake Windermere is a near neighbour and there are fabulous hikes, dog walks and mountain bike trails straight from the door. Turn up hill from Little Barn and explore the summit of Loughrigg. From the top you’ll enjoy a bird’s eye view across Grasmere and Rydal Water, also well within reach.
There is private parking for two cars, good anchor points for mountain bikes and an outdoor wash off point for boots, bikes and barkers.

There’s also a boot room with plenty of hanging space for wet weather gear. Two outdoor seating areas are complimented by a grandstand view from the living area balcony – the perfect spot for a morning cuppa or a glass of something chilled in the evening. The barn’s wood burner is great for cosy evenings in – and there’s a generous stock of logs. Beach 25 miles. Shop and restaurant 1 mile, pub ¾ mile.
