Lakeland Farmhouse - incredible secluded location

This charming Lakeland farmhouse in the idyllic Lowther Valley is perfect for anyone searching for peace and quiet or outdoor exploration. You’ll be on the beautiful and rugged Bampton Common, surrounded by stunning Pennine and Lakeland fell views. Explore Bampton Common from the doorstep and look out for the wild ponies who regularly pass by. Loadpot Hill and Askham Fell offer superb hiking for those wishing to venture further afield on foot. There are many wonderful places to visit nearby, including Haweswater Reservoir (an RSPB nature reserve) and Lowther Castle with its café and outdoor adventure park. If you love water sports and wild swimming, visit Ullswater, and for a little culture, head to Larch Cottage Nurseries – an Italian-inspired oasis! The charming villages of Askham (4 miles) and Bampton are 2 miles away with pubs and village stores.

The property was renovated in 2023 to a very high finish. The ground floor boasts a stylish contemporary kitchen with a dining area which opens into the lounge, the perfect place to enjoy cosy evenings in front of the fire or alfresco drinks while taking in the incredible views and peaceful surroundings. The lounge also has a games area with football table and board games. There is a handy utility room and WC on the ground floor as well. Head up the lovely oak stairs from the lounge area and you will find three comfortable bedrooms. The master bedroom has a king-size bed and an en-suite shower room. There is also a second king-size room and a cosy single. There is a family bathroom along the landing completing the property. The property has underfloor heating and charming features throughout, plus wonderful fell and countryside views from most rooms.

There is a courtyard area in front of the property with seating and views across the open countryside and fells. The area is a haven for wildlife and birds as well as the local farm animals which roam close by. On a nice evening, enjoy the dark skies and on a nice morning, it is the perfect place to enjoy a morning coffee or dine alfresco.

A beautiful cottage in a rural setting. The cottage has been finished to a high standard throughout including bedding, towels etc. The cottage is located in farm land and therefore once you leave the public highway you access the property via a tarmac single lane and then several hundred metres of farm track. Its a beautiful rural location, but notRead more for sports cars or low vehicles. We did stay in November so parts of the lane were muddy, might be better in summer...did i mention its a beautiful q Hide
