We had a fantastic stay at this charming cottage in Allithwaite. The rooms are spacious and beautifully decorated, perfect for our group of six, plus a baby and a dog. The beds were super comfyand the showers felt luxurious. We didn't get to try the hot tub because of the weather, but it’s definitely a bonus! The location is great - just a short walk to a lovely pub and to Cartmel. The welcome basket was a lovely touch. We’d happily come back!

We really enjoyed our time at Barn Hey! The place was spotless, comfyand beautifully decorated. The hot tub was a lovely surprise after a long day. It’s close to Grange over Sands and Cartmel, both worth exploring. The nearby pub served great food and had friendly staff. The welcome pack was a nice touch too. Thanks a lot!
