Brimming with local history, The Old Mill Inn offers a charming and luxurious getaway in characterful surroundings. Arrive to a warm welcome and a cold drink in the front bar where you can warm up by the fire and begin to unwind in elegant surroundings. You'll find lots framed art on the walls, candle lit tables, rocking chairs dotted about and a host of lovely little touches to make you feel at home. The Inn has six beautifully decorated and comfortable bedrooms suitable for couples or single adventurers. All of the rooms are spacious and stylishly furnished with a touch of elegance. Large comfortable king size beds and crisp white linens promise a sound night's slumber and beforehand you might like to burrow beneath the blankets and watch a film on the flat screen Smart TV. In the morning you can indulge yourself with all the complimentary toiletries in the large rainfall shower before heading down for breakfast and making your plans for the day. The Old Mill lies in a leafy hollow by a shallow beck (or stream for non-Cumbrians) on the edges of Dearham. Situated just beyond the northern border of the Lake District National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the country’s finest areas of natural beauty. Pull on your wellies and head out to explore this stunning part of the world and clear the cobwebs away. The hosts recommend a visit to The Lakes Distillery, Wordsworth's House and Garden and for beaches you'll be spoilt for choice with Allonby Beach, Maryport Prominade which provides a lovely coastal walk, and Buttermere for a perfect Lake Walk. Afterwards you can head back to the warm and lovely inn where you can enjoy a hot shower and a well earned drink before you settle down for an evening of fabulous food. The pub is gastro and serves plenty of classics with ingredients sourced locally and a menu that changes seasonally.

  • Rowan At Grasmere

    • 7 nights

    Tucked away in the Vale of Grasmere, this luxurious holiday home is perfectly located for exploring the beauty and tranquility of the Lake District. You'll have stunning views from every window with spectacular fells in all directions and the River Rothay flowing nearby. The house has been built on the footprint of a Victorian glass vine house, once part of a walled fruit and vegetable garden for the hotel nearby. Exotic grape varieties were grown here with the sun streaming through the south-facing windows of the vine house. It has now been transformed into a home, perfect for families or groups of friends looking for a quiet, luxurious retreat in the heart of the Lake District. You'll find Rowan at Grasmere at the end of a private lane with a bridge that takes you over the River Rothay. Once through the entrance gate, head up the Lakeland slate path to find the house with the rugged fells rising up behind it. There's plenty of space for your walking gear in the porch and then you can make your way through to the cosy interior. The kitchen, dining area and sun lounge are all spaces perfect for socialising. Whip up feasts using the contemporary, fully-equipped kitchen, and gather around the dining table to enjoy delicious meals together with views of the fells and crags. If you fancy eating outdoors and making the most of the scenery, step through the French doors and straight onto the south-facing terrace. After dinner, head into the comfortable and inviting living room, complete with a beautiful fireplace made of Lakeland slate and equipped with a wood-burning stove. Curl up on the sofas upholstered with Scottish Harris Tweed wool and enjoy a movie night or simply relax and unwind with a book while the fire crackles in the background. The living space also features two upholstered cushioned armchairs which can swivel so you can get comfy and take in the fell views. There are three double bedrooms, all with their own luxurious ensuite bathrooms, pocket-sprung mattresses and HD smart TVs. You'll find bathrobes and fluffy towels waiting for you on the bathroom radiators, along with underfloor heating to keep you toasty on colder days. Outside, the landscaped garden has been designed to frame the spectacular scenery. Sit out at any time of year and enjoy the inspiring view and you'll discover why this was the perfect spot for a Victorian vine house. There's plenty of outdoor furniture for relaxing and dining alfresco when the sun is shining and low level lighting creates plenty of ambiance in the evenings. The fantastic location means that you have some of the Lake District's best walks and scenic spots right at your doorstep. Whether you're a keen rambler or you'd prefer to explore some of the area's charming towns and villages, Grasmere is a great starting point. Begin with a trip into the village for a cup of tea and to try the famous Grasmere Gingerbread, then venture out to explore the breathtaking landscapes by strolling around the lake. If you're feeling adventurous, tackle a famous walk such as Helm Crag or Loughrigg Fell. Helvellyn and the Langdale mountains are also nearby for those seeking more challenging hikes and the rewards of spectacular views.

  • Netherby Treehouse

    • 4
    • 2 nights min stay

    Cute as they come and with views out to the Scottish border, the Netherby Estate Treehouse is the place to be for a Cumbrian adventure. The River Esk is the soothing backdrop for this elevated luxury cabin that comes with its own hot tub and sits around seven miles from Gretna Green. The treehouse enjoys a secluded spot on the estate, with fields and parkland extending all around. You will immediately appreciate the tranquil atmosphere, with little more than the burble of the river and the baa of nearby sheep to trouble you. The open-plan interior packs in a wood-burner and a cosy corner to curl up with a book or enjoy a meal. A kitchen with modern oven, a sink and all the bits and pieces you will need makes it easy to prepare one, and there’s another space to sit down and dine out on the balcony. A welcome hamper ensures there will be something to get you started on arrival. Netherby Estate Treehouse makes clever use of its space to accommodate up to four guests. You have a double bed in the main living area, and a mezzanine level above has a further two single beds, ideal for children, accessed via a ladder. Everyone will be warm and comfy as the wood-burning stove does its business – and the bedding and soft furnishings are rather nice too. This is the perfect spot to put on your walking boots and head out to explore the Cumbrian countryside. You are likely to see plenty of deer before you even leave the estate. The border location gives you the chance to discover beautiful areas of two countries – you’re only 30 miles from Dumfries to the west, and delights of the Solway Coast are closer still. To the north-east, the expansive Kielder Forest will enchant lovers of the outdoor lifestyle, and you’re only 30 minutes from the North Pennines. The city of Carlisle, around 16 miles from the estate, has historic attractions including a medieval castle – and, of course, Hadrian’s Wall just a short distance away. Days out at Carlisle Racecourse or the Talkin Tarn Country Park (perfect for walking, cycling and water-sports), will provide plenty of holiday memories.

    Experience the magical ruggedness of the Lake District from the comfort of this peaceful and luxurious B&B. Choose from one of six stunning rooms - all stylish, luxurious, comfortable and cosy. It's the perfect space to hunker down and take in the spectacular surroundings or return to after long days hiking the trails. Each is named Lake District-appropriate, from Fell to Tarn to Herdwick, and, while they all share wonderful views and high-standards of luxury and comfort, the room interiors are as different as the names. And while the decor and layout may differ, each room is ensuite with oodles of hot water, gorgeous complimentary smellies and fluffy towels and bathrobes. Floor-to-ceiling windows offer wonderful views of the surroundings and underfloor heating and sheepskin rugs ensure visitors are cosy throughout their stay. Wake to the sun's rays gently warming the face and the sound of the birds beginning their day. Make a morning coffee courtesy of the handy Nespresso machine (kettles are also provided for those hankering after a proper cuppa), hop back into bed, or settle into the comfy armchairs and watch the weather roll over before heading to breakfast. After demolishing a hearty breakfast, guests are fully-fuelled for a day exploring the tarns, fells, lakes and pubs of this breathtaking national park. Guests share a large, comfortable lounge where they can kick off their boots (there is a handy drying room), relax with a drink from the honesty bar, swap tales with other travellers or spend some quiet time reading and enjoying the tranquility of their surroundings. There are plenty of activities to keep guests busy. Apart from exploring the Lakes and Fells, there are Roman Forts, steam railways and the pretty harbour town of Whitehaven, a great spot to grab dinner. After a day exploring, return for a romantic evening under the stars, glass of bubbly in-hand, looking out at the starlit sky and making plans for the next day.
