Welcome to Engine House, a luxury retreat on the shores of the Solway Firth Tucked away in a picturesque courtyard setting in the charming village of Allonby. Engine House is a stunning barn conversion offering the perfect blend of rustic charm and modern luxury. Originally a glorious stone barn, this beautiful holiday let has been carefully transformed into an elegant and comfortable retreat, where exposed beams, cobbled sandstone walls, and a striking stone floor preserve the essence of its historic past.
From the moment you step into the grand entrance hall, you’ll be captivated by the character of this home. An open gallery overlooks the hall, enhancing the sense of space and grandeur.

The accommodation includes three beautifully furnished bedrooms, a luxurious main double with a kingsized bed and en-suite shower room, a second double bedroom, and a twin room, all designed for a restful night’s sleep. A stylish family bathroom features a charming cast iron claw-foot bath, perfect for a long soak after a day of exploring. Additionally, a convenient downstairs separate toilet ensures maximum comfort for guests. Step outside into your private garden, accessible from the dining room, where you’ll find outdoor furniture for al fresco dining or simply soaking up the fresh Cumbrian air. The peaceful courtyard setting makes this an idyllic escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
