Description

4 Bedrooms with en-suite, mountain views of Great Gable

With four large double en-suite bedrooms, two wood burning stoves, a classic ‘living’ farm kitchen, separate character dining room and a comfortable, light living room, this is a truly special place to base yourself in the Western Lake District. Guests should be aware that this is an old building dating from 1824 and in not a gentrified and modernised farmhouse.

You enter the house from the courtyard via a porch/boot room with plenty of space for coats, boots and walking paraphernalia. From there you enter the large well equipped farm kitchen featuring wood burning cooker, with fridge freezer, washing machine and dishwasher, high level grill and oven with separate hob and microwave – and just to complete the picture a family sized kitchen table and chairs.

From there you move into the central stairwell that winds its way through the house, illuminated by an enormous window. The dining room is on the same level as the kitchen and is situated in the old larder and salting room – still containing the original sandstone trough that the farmers used to salt their meat.

With four large double en-suite bedrooms, two wood burning stoves, a classic ‘living’ farm kitchen, separate character dining room and a comfortable, light living room, this is a truly special place to base yourself in the Western Lake District.

You enter the house from the courtyard via a porch/boot room with plenty of space for coats, boots and walking paraphernalia. From there you enter the large well equipped farm kitchen featuring wood burning cooker, newly fitted units with fridge freezer, washing machine and dishwasher, high level grill and oven with separate hob and microwave – and just to complete the picture a family sized kitchen table and chairs.

From there you move into the central stairwell that winds its way through the house, illuminated by an enormous window. The dining room is on the same level as the kitchen and is situated in the old larder and salting room – still containing the original sandstone trough that the farmers used to salt their meat. On the first floor is the living room, with wood burning stove and deep sofas from which to enjoy the last rays of the setting sun. There is a Freeserve digital TV with integral VHS recorder, DVD player and a midi CD player/radio. This room also leads to a porch with separate access to the rear of the house.

Across the landing is the first bedroom, with kingsize bed where you can simply lie and watch Wasdale unfold before you. The en-suite full sized bathroom has a bath with shower over, toilet and wash hand basin.

The second floor contains bedrooms two and three. Bedroom two, with kingsize double, has even better views of Wasdale and an en-suite containing bath with shower over, toilet and wash hand basin. Bedroom three features an ‘Austrian Double’ bed – a super kingsize double that can ingeniously be split into 2 separate single beds. The ensuite shower room has a quadrant shower cubicle, toilet and wash hand basin.

Bedroom four occupies the entire attic space converted into a spacious room with two large velux windows bathing it in light and providing – yet again – outstanding views of Wasdale. Another ‘Austrian Double’ provides additional flexibility to the accommodation, and the en-suite bathroom contains a bath, toilet and wash hand basin.

The Hallflat Farmhouse oil fired central heating completes the comfort, yet the house still retains its essential character as an old Cumbrian building.

External

Outside there is ample off road parking and the Farmhouse has its own lawned area which is ideal for catching the afternoon sun. Garden furniture and BBQs are available to make the most of this external space.

Hallflat Farmhouse welcomes well-behaved dogs; we charge £25 a stay for each dog. There are pet rules and potential guest should note that pets are only allowed on the ground floor, as the sitting room is on the first floor some guest may find this unsuitable. The area also has a wealth of walks suitable for dogs and most of the pubs in the area are dog friendly, including our local, the Bridge Inn.

Bookings

The Farmhouse bookings run from Friday to Friday and there is a no smoking policy. Prices are per week unless otherwise stated and include electricity and bed linen but not towels.

Walks

There are plenty of walks on public footpaths nearby, indeed a path crosses the garden and the field at the back of the house, this footpath goes to Hall Santon.

Response from the owner We're very glad that you enjoyed your stay at the farmhouse. As well as being so close to Scafell Pike and Great Gable, there are lots of other attractions nearby and the sea is only 4 miles away too. Also, there are lots of good pubs to relax in after a strenuous day out on the fells!
