Bank Barn is one of the finest luxury holiday homes in the Lake District and celebrates a 5 Gold Star (96%) rating from Visit England. This spectacular four-bedroom barn conversion enjoys a secluded location and stunning views, just half a mile from the shores of Lake Ullswater. Accommodating up to eight guests in spacious surroundings, this is the perfect retreat for a special occasion or getaway with friends and family. It’s also an ideal choice for keen hikers and walkers.
From the moment you walk in, the sheer size of this former Lakeland barn will take your breath away. Tasteful decor and sumptuous furnishings combine with many traditional touches to create a really welcoming home. The large and attractive farmhouse-style kitchen will be an exciting sight for the budding chefs in the group, while the dining table is a relaxed spot for a group breakfast. More formal meals can be enjoyed in the central hall, with its pitched and beamed ceiling and a large table. In the elegant lounge, sit back and relax together while the open fire crackles away, while younger guests will love escaping to the additional snug room downstairs, with its comfortable sofas and large TV. Four inviting bedrooms are also to be found on the lower floor, each with their own style and restful design. Two are en-suite, while the two twin bedrooms share a bathroom. Allow the kids to explore the terraced patios and lawns which surround the property, while you sit back, take in the views and enjoy a drink at sunset. This property does not allow charging of electric vehicles using a regular plug into the property. This is for insurance purposes. The nearest charging facility is approximately 5 miles away.
Ullswater is the second largest lake in the Lake District and much of its shore and surrounding fells are accessible for visitors to explore. For a more challenging day, head to Grenridding (7 miles) which is a popular starting point for walkers and climbers going up Helvellyn, England’s third-highest mountain. Take a wander around the shops, museums and restaurants in popular Keswick, 15.5 miles away.
