Lilac Barn is a fabulous ground-floor barn conversion located within a private gravel courtyard on a 17th Century Farmstead. It has been recently renovated to a beautifully high standard and is an ideal base from which to explore the Lake District and Eden Valley with family or friends.
It is easy to see that Lilac Barn has been thoughtfully designed with its guests in mind, from the welcome packs for guests (including the 4-legged variety) to its stylishly seamless accessibility features. It is wheelchair accessible throughout with wide doors and low switches and has been decorated with gorgeous antiques and pieces that have been so lovingly restored.
We were blown away by how much care, consideration, and love has gone into making a stay at Lilac Barn something that everyone can enjoy.
The property opens into a fabulously cosy yet spacious open plan kitchen/living space, with a modern kitchen complete with all the mod-cons you should need during your stay, plus a washer/dryer for those longer stays and a large coat stand handy for all those layers and leads.
In the corner sits a dining table with plenty of space for 4 guests. Then into the living area where you will find two incredibly comfortable sofas that easily provide seating for 4 adults, and the beautifully luxurious curtains along with a cosy cast iron electric stove give the feeling of a lovely and warm 'country cottage' experience.
A wide hallway takes you to the two bedrooms, one of which is en-suite, both beautifully decorated with fresh sage and grey tones and adorned with complimentary decor including lovingly restored wardrobes and beds. At the end of the hallway, you will find the large wet room that has been amazingly designed to have discreet yet practical support/grab rails and a seat that blends in with the rest of the modern aesthetic of the room. The soft furnishings have been chosen carefully, with the bedding and towels from Bedeck, providing you with a real sense of style and comfort during your stay.
The Welcome to Lilac Barn Handbook provides guests with all the information they need to feel right at home, and a welcome pack is provided to guests with luxury tea bags, coffee, sugar, milk & butter, homemade jam, home baking and a loaf of bread. A welcome pack is also provided for any dogs staying with you, with a dog towel, metal dog bowl and a few treats for our four-legged visitors!
