Is High Cleabarrow Right For You?

Discover why this cottage is ideal for different types of visitors

For Families
Children love the two-acre gardens with space to run and explore safely. The games room has table tennis and the amateur tennis court provides hours of entertainment. A piano in the house proved popular with young guests. The summer house makes a perfect den. Cots and highchairs are available. Nearby attractions include the World of Beatrix Potter (1.2 miles) and Brockhole Visitor Centre (2.5 miles) with adventure playgrounds.
For Couples
This large farmhouse suits groups rather than couples seeking an intimate retreat. The property sleeps 10 across five bedrooms making it better suited for families or friends. The period features and open fire create atmosphere but the scale of the property feels too spacious for two people. Couples would find better value in smaller Lake District cottages designed for romantic breaks with features tailored to two guests.
Pet Friendly
Dogs are welcome at High Cleabarrow with two acres of gardens to explore. The grounds provide secure space for pets to roam. An outside toilet adds practical convenience when returning from muddy walks. Windermere Golf Club sits two minutes away with surrounding footpaths. Grizedale Forest Park offers extensive dog walking trails 6 miles away. The farmhouse location provides direct access to Lake District walking routes from the doorstep.
