Peace and Quiet
Our new, fully insulated Log cabin is situated within our private woodland, with its own entrance, in approx 1 acre of fenced woodland, about 5 miles south of Appleby. The Lodge is on our 50 acre smallholding so although The Lodge is on its own it’s not isolated, being within 200m of our farmhouse. We are well placed for walking or exploring the quiet Eden Valley. The North Pennines, The Lakes, and The Yorkshire Dales are all within 30 mins drive.
There is now TV and WiFi at The Lodge, for those who cannot leave their technology at home.
Accommodation
The Lodge consists of an open plan living/kitchen area with a balcony. Beyond that is a spacious shower room and two bedrooms. The main bedroom has a double bed, and enjoys its private balcony. The other is a twin room. There is also a sofa bed in the living area; so a maximum of six people can be accommodated.
Amenities at The Lodge
Your Furry Friends
Dogs are welcome (a maximum of 2). Please advise on booking if you wish to bring your furry friends, and please bring their beds/bedding.
However, we would ask that they only be allowed in the lodge itself if they are clean and dry, and that they also stay off the furniture. There is a heated kennel and run by the side of the lodge for their comfort and enjoyment.
On the Farm & In the Woods
As we are a small holding we often have fresh seasonal vegetables and fresh eggs available, together with home grown Pork, Beef and Lamb. The lodge is set within our 12 acre Silver birch woods with approx 1 acre securely fenced off for your enjoyment. You, your children, and your doggy friends can have a great experience exploring this area. It provides a safe enclosed space for children to build a den or just play in the fresh Cumbrian air.
However, we would ask that you don’t wander around the rest of the woods/farm yard without speaking to us first as our dogs are often running loose.
Alternatively, you may just want to sit and enjoy the peace & quiet or watch the wild birds & other wildlife. If you’re lucky you might even spy one of our shy red squirrels.
