This former farmhouse is found part-way up Hallin Fell at the south end of Ullswater in the Lake District. The secluded location offers spectacular views over the fells and hidden valleys and is the perfect place for a relaxing getaway. The bedrooms are split between the main farmhouse, a converted barn and the old stables and each building is made cosy with underfloor heating and wood-burning stoves. Outside, guests can enjoy walled gardens and a Yorkstone terrace overlooking the rolling hills. For those seeking extra relaxation, a hot tub is available to hire on request – perfect for a soak after hitting the local hiking trails.
