The Byre at The Green Cumbria

The Byre has a huge central slate chimney, a vaulted beamed ceiling and an open-plan living area in earthy colours. It’s a light, warm and sociable space and views from every window soar over the romantically remote Dales. The well-equipped kitchen is a joy to cook in.

Two sumptuous bedrooms downstairs have super king beds which can be twins, plump pillows and duvets and views of windswept hills; en suite bathrooms sport whirlpool baths with overhead showers. Stone steps lead down to an enclosed courtyard garden with fire pit and furniture for long summer evenings outdoors. Light the wood-burner and snuggle down with a book, watch a film on the big TV or head to a comfy sofa and lots of books on the mezzanine floor.

Find a basket of fresh sourdough, locally made crisps and chocolate, a bottle of wine. There are interconnecting doors to The Haystore, so take both for a party of eight, or all three for a jolly get-together with up to 14.
