Vacation Rental Description
The Hayloft is a luxury holiday cottage converted from a traditional limestone threshing barn in the stunning South Lakeland Cartmel Peninsula. It blends original oak beams and limestone with contemporary use of natural materials, all beautifully draped in Sanderson and Laura Ashley fabrics.
The Hayloft is located in the beautiful Cartmel Peninsula and is surrounding by rolling countryside with the Lake District fells to the north and picturesque Morecambe Bay to the south. The Hayloft is found in the village of Allithwaite, a pretty village within 8 miles of Lake Windermere and a short scenic lakeside drive from Bowness-on-Windermere and the heart of the Lakes. Good roads lead to the market towns of Kendal and Ulverston or the nearby Yorkshire Dales.
Many walks pass the door and lead to the unspoilt beauty of the Cartmel Peninsula. Within 2 miles find Cartmel and its famous 11th Century Priory, steeplechase racecourse and celebrated Sticky Toffee Pudding Shop or the Edwardian resort of Grange-over-Sands, complete with promenade, Ornamental Gardens, tea-rooms and shops. Head west along the Cumbria Coastal Way (which almost passes the door) to Flookburgh, famous for shrimps and cockles, and award-winning Holker Hall. Or simply stay at home and walk a few yards to a pub with open fire!
The Hayloft offers a complete escape or a luxury base for exploring the Lake District. It sleeps 7 (there is also a lounge-based sofa bed for 2) in a sumptuous ground floor four-poster double, a pretty upstairs double and a triple sleeper (4ft double & 3ft single).
The Hayloft features a corner bath and downstairs power shower room; a bespoke oak and black granite farmhouse kitchen; a relaxing garden room/second lounge overlooking enclosed lawn, borders and stone stable (now a games & laundry room) and upstairs galleried lounge capturing views of Morecambe Bay.
