Tan Apartment - Shap | Ideal for Couples, Walkers or Business Travellers
Tan (Cumbrian dialect for the number two) is one of two gorgeous apartments that make up the recent conversion of a traditional Cumbrian bank barn - situated in the picturesque village of Shap, nestled between the Westmorland Dales & Lake District National Parks and the Eden Valley. Tan, Amma Barn is the perfect holiday cottage for those looking to unwind and explore the beauty of the northern lakes and eastern fells.
This lovely one-bedroom apartment has been thoughtfully designed with two people in mind to provide comfortable holiday accommodation that feels like your home away from home.
Upon entering the apartment, you'll be greeted by a warm and inviting open-plan living with a sofa and wall-mounted TV, and the kitchen comprises an induction hob, oven, dishwasher, and a fridge with a freezer box. The spacious bathroom features a walk-in shower, toilet, and basin, ensuring comfort and convenience throughout your stay.
The light & airy bedroom is furnished with a plush kingsize double bed plus clothes storage and the double-glazed windows will keep the room cosy and quiet.
