We stayed here in April 2011 on the first part of our honeymoon. Firstly it is in a lovely setting by Coniston lake and it near enough to walk to Coniston if you don't mind bit of a stroll. We stayed in a room over looking the lake, it was a beautiful room with the most comfortable bed ever! Breakfast... More

We booked The Barn for a week at half-term and invited up to 40 people to visit over the week. Lovely plate of goodies from the tea room on arrival which was a perfect start. Jonathon always on hand to answer any questions or point you in the right direction. Nothing too much trouble and very happy to supply extra... More

We stayed at The Barn at Bankground for a long weekend in September. We went with a big family group, a couple of whom have never holidayed in the UK and were very sceptical about it!
