OLD MILL BARN
This lovely converted sandstone barn provides spacious and comfortable self-catering accommodation for up to 10 people in perfect surroundings - a great choice for you, your family and friends to enjoy that get-away-from-it-all holiday or short break. You will find peace and beauty in the undiscovered and unspoilt Eden Valley, and excitement nearby in the adventure capital of England - the Lake District is just half an hour away.
The accommodation page provides details and pictures of the 5 bedrooms - 2 double bedded and 3 twin-bedded - and the lovely open plan, exposed-beam dining area and sitting room with log-burning stove, well equipped kitchen and 2 bath/shower rooms, as well as the gallery and garden etc.
The Area page describes our beautiful Conservation Area village, nestling at the base of the Pennine Hills, a splendid setting that is also an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Handy for the M6 with junction 40 only 20 minutes away, a 30 minute drive from the Lake District, and less than an hour to Carlisle, Scotland and Hadrian's Wall, and with great on- and off-road walks and cycle rides straight from the door, there is truly something for every level of activity (or inactivity!)
A special hello if you are looking at this site with a view to coming to one of Quiltwork's popular quilting retreats or courses (www.quiltworks.co.uk) or going gliding with Eden Soaring (www.edensoaring.co.uk)
We have a cot, high chair and stair gates to make life easier if you are bringing a baby or toddler, and pets are welcome (with an additional fee of £15 for up to 2 pets). There is off-road parking for 4 (or 5 small) cars.
With prices starting at £430 per week in the low season, and only £800 for the summer weeks, you will find great value for money. Short breaks of 3 nights are also available for most of the year, and we will occasionally accept 2 night bookings, so do ask. Check dates and prices then ring or e-mail us to make a booking or for further information.
We look forward to welcoming you to our lovely holiday cottage in the beautiful and secret Eden Valley.
