Tithe Barn

£120.00 up to £190.00 per couple per night

The Tithe Barn Hotel is a historic townhouse that has been refurbished to the highest standard but still retains its original charm. As you ascend the staircase to your room you'll pass stunning stained glass windows and exposed stone walls. High ceilings and reclaimed materials provide style and a soothing welcoming interior. There are nine rooms to choose from, all of which have super-king size beds which can be adapted into twins as needed. The décor mixes modern elegance and luxury with the fine bedding, plush pillows and warm cosy duvets and blankets, and adds a touch of charm with the exposed beams and stone walls. Pretty art adorns the walls and the furniture is made from reclaimed wood. The rooms are large enough to lounge about in, you have a choice between classic king, deluxe king and superior king, and some of the deluxe rooms are on the ground floor for those with mobility issues. Curl up on the bed, get some snacks and pour yourself a big drink before settling in for a movie on the Smart TV which offers iPlayer, Netflix and much more. In the morning you'll be delighted by the fabulous ensuite bathroom with its white brick tiled walls and pretty detailed floor tiles. The showers are spacious and hot and the heated rails will keep all towels fluffy and warm so you can luxuriate under the hot water and enjoy the complimentary Eden toiletries. Tithe Barn is a staff-less hotel with hassle free smart Yale locks for easy check-ins and breakfast is included in your stay and served at the nearby VeeVa Cafe where you can get fresh coffee and a huge menu selection of delicious hot and cold food. When you're ready to explore Cockermouth you'll be right in the centre of town with lots of fabulous independent shops, restaurants and bars to choose from. Cockermouth is one of only 51 towns in Britain designated as a 'Gem' town, and you'll be a short drive away from some beautiful serene lakes and mountains. Derwentwater Pier is particularly lovely and you'll want to take some photos there. Allonby Beach is also a must visit and the hosts recommend you stop by The Lakes Distillery for a tasting. They also have a lovely bistro and the setting is a former Victorian farmstead’s cattle parlour. If you fancy a pint the town is famous for its Jenning's Brewery where you can also enjoy a tour and sample of their beers. Tilia, next door to the hotel has a lovely menu and when you're done exploring you can head back to Tithe Barn Hotel and head down to the Tithe Tap, a hidden speakeasy and gin bar offering decadent cocktails and delicious charcuterie boards. Fabulous.
