Comment: We enjoyed our stay in the sympathetically converted barn with its spacious accommodation and large well maintained garden. We spent quite a lot of time sitting in the gallery with its views across the countryside. Overall we thought the standard of the accommodation was higher than we had expected.
We liked the location because we could leave the car behind and walk to Tarn Hows, Coniston, Hawkshead and Latterbarrow. We could also walk to the bus stop in Outgate and use our over 60s bus passes on the hourly service between Ambleside and Coniston. Once in Ambleside we could catch the open top 20 minute service to Grasmere, Bowness etc.
Most evenings we had a meal at the pub/restaurant in Outgate. We also had a sandwich lunch in the Red Lion in Hawkshead.
