About this property

Bretherdale Barn

Welcome to Bretherdale Barn, a perfect property for large families and friends to stay together in a rural setting with incredible countryside views. Nestled in the Lake District National Park, guests can enjoy each other's company amongst the green fields full of sheep and horses.The barn sleeps up to ten people across five bedrooms and has been lovingly refurbished using local materials throughout, perfectly blending the characterful old building with luxury, modern fixtures, and fittings.On the ground floor are three bedrooms (all with ensuite shower rooms) along with a family bathroom with large bath. Of the three ground floor bedrooms, there is 1x king-sized bedroom, 1x twin room and 1x double. There is also a handy utility room and WC on the ground floor with a washing machine and tumble dryer. The ground floor has underfloor, central heating.The primary living space is to be found on the first floor which is accessed via two staircases. The large, open plan living, dining and kitchen area is ideal for socialising and is full of luxury touches. The impressive chandelier on the stairway, the engineered oak flooring and the hanging wood-burning stove all provide a sense of splendour. With guests staying in with a lit fire during the cooler Autumn and Winter months, there is also the widescreen TV with Amazon Prime Video and Netflix which can also be enjoyed. The kitchen is well stocked with all the amenities guests require to cook up a feast including a double oven and a large American-style fridge/freezer with wine chiller.The fourth and fifth bedrooms can be found upstairs on the second floor, off a galleried hallway with small library area. One bedroom has a king size bed, the other a twin and both come with their own ensuite shower-over-bath.Outside, there is a patio area and outdoor dining furniture to seat ten people so guests can enjoy their meals in the warmer summer months taking in the wonderful countryside views. There's also a BBQ available for guests' use. The leisure building housing the sauna, steam room, showers and games room is next door. This facility is shared with Bretherdale Hall and there is a board provided for guests to book out morning, afternoon, or evening sessions for their own private use. There is a separate drying room with spa towels for guests to use during their stay.There is enough undercover parking for up to four cars with additional parking for at least another six cars on site. Please note that Bretherdale Hall is next door, and both share the sauna and games room facility.Located only a few miles from Tebay off jct 38 of the M6, it's easy to reach from different parts of the UK and the perfect location from which to explore the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Lake District. Kendal, Windermere and Ambleside are all within easy reach and offer wonderful days out whatever the time of year. Kendal is the nearest town and is full of historic character, with its web of interweaving alleyways and cobbled yards. The town is home to plenty of passionate artisans - if you love food and drink, you'll love Kendal. Guests can browse the farm shops, visit local bakers and brewers or check out the local delicacies at the weekly market.This property is ideal for families and friends.
