Cot available on request.. Courtyard with sitting-out area with garden furniture. Patio (occasional access to other property on-site). Private parking for 1 car. No smoking.. Newly renovated for 2020 and presented to an excellent standard, this contemporary detached barn conversion offers all the design elements you would expect from a 21st-century holiday cottage. A lot of thought and care has gone into creating the perfect holiday experience with guest comfort top of the list of priorities. Sleeping four in two comfortable bedrooms each with its own en-suite, and you will love the attention to detail which is second to none. This barn has an open plan living, kitchen and dining room, which can accommodate a cot if requested, all on the first floor to make the most of the spectacular views to the surrounding fells and the imposing Skiddaw in the backdrop. The furnishings, decor and design have been carefully considered and there is plenty of space for a social break. Outside is a patio with garden furniture to take in the views and soak up the sunshine.
Apple Barn is in a great location, whether you’re looking for action packed adventure or just a relaxing and peaceful break, you have plenty to do in the area. If you like outdoor adventure including walking, cycling and climbing, you are surrounded by some amazing scenery and routes around, while Skiddaw and Latrigg can be reached from the door, Blencathra and Catbells are within a few miles. Derwentwater offering sailing and other watersports is just 2 miles away. If you like culture check out the Theatre By The Lake, 2 miles away, with award winning arts and drama on the banks of Derwentwater where you can hire a rowing boat or even take a dip. Of course the bustling town of Keswick is just 1½ miles away which is an easy walk or a short 5 minute taxi ride if you want to leave the car behind and head out for a meal and a few drinks. Keswick is vibrant with a great outdoor market. Its bustling centre has an abundance of quality restaurants, pubs serving local cask ales, independent shops and the obligatory outdoor and fashion brands. Plenty of deli’s, bakeries, coffee shops and local craft stalls. For family fun why not try Puzzling Place, a mind boggling attraction based on optical illusions or the Derwent Pencil Museum, home to the largest pencil in the world. Or for a really wild day out, try The Lake District Wildlife Park at Bassenthwaite or The Lakes Distillery offering daily tasting and tours, both 8 miles away. If you fancy a round of golf, Keswick Golf Club is just 5½ miles. Beach 23 miles. Shop 1½ miles, pub and restaurant 1¼ miles.

Uncomfortably small for 4
Very clean, fantastic location, nicely done, unfortunately far too small for a comfortable stay for family of 4 and a large dog, for a couple it’s perfect. Still had a great time, as we love the Lake District and great walks from the door.
Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2020
