Is The Gallery Right For You?

Discover why this cottage is ideal for different types of visitors

For Families
The Gallery is not suitable for children. This is a studio apartment designed specifically for two adults with a king-size bed and no separate sleeping areas. The whirlpool bath and open-plan layout with stairs make it unsuitable for young children. The property works best as a romantic couples' retreat rather than family accommodation.
For Couples
The Gallery excels as a romantic retreat for two. The king-size bed and whirlpool bath create a luxurious atmosphere. The peaceful location at the end of a private lane offers privacy and countryside views. Walk to Merewood Country House Hotel for dinner or enjoy morning coffee on the patio with bistro furniture. The leather seating and 50-inch TV provide comfort for cosy evenings in.
Pet Friendly
The Gallery does not accept pets. The no-pets policy helps maintain the pristine condition that guests consistently praise in reviews. This also ensures the apartment remains suitable for visitors with pet allergies. If you're travelling with a dog, you'll need to consider alternative Lake District accommodation that welcomes animals.
