Judy
A beautifully finished studio apartment, very light, bright and airy, with its own private terrace garden overlooking mature woods and a stream. The studio and its setting have a really peaceful feel, so great for relaxing and 'retreating'. The studio is cosy and warm, heated with an air source heat pump, with electricity coming from the on roof solar panels, so a green choice too! The property is set back from the country road by a long drive, and is very private. The peaceful garden has an outdoor wood burner, table and chairs, and armchairs for eating al-fresco or just star gazing. Inside there is a desk and FREE wireless internet, so perfect for working as well as relaxing. The kitchen is well equipped with kettle, toaster, combination oven & microwave, twin halogen hob, NESPRESSO machine, cooking utensils, pans, crockery and cutlery. Complimentary continental breakfast goods will be provided for self catering; eg; tea, coffee, orange juice, cereals, bread, butter, jam, marmalade (subject to availability). There is a washing machine and laundry drying rack in the separate utility cupboard for added convenience.
We are a friendly, laid back family, who love to give our guests a great experience staying in our property. We will do our best to help with any issue, no matter how small.
we are in a really peaceful rural location, yet only 4 miles from either Carlisle City Centre or the M6
