Tullythwaite Barn is a characterful barn conversion located in Underbarrow, Cumbria. Set within the Lake District National Park and well-suited to families and groups of friends looking to explore this celebrated part of the county, this pet-friendly abode boasts a freestanding bath and off-road parking. Pulling into the off-road parking, you arrive at a well-finished barn set among a small row of holiday cottages. Inside, the living and dining room opens up as a bright and welcoming space where your eye is immediately caught by the feature stone wall, set beneath exposed beams and a vaulted ceiling. Velux windows draw daylight into the room, while comfy seating gathers around the mounted TV and electric fire, creating a natural place to relax after a day outdoors. The dining table sits comfortably within the space, inviting shared meals, board games, and evenings spent planning the next day’s adventures. One step lead up into the kitchen, where cooking feels easy and sociable, whether you are preparing a relaxed breakfast or bringing everyone together over a home-cooked supper. Everything is arranged to keep the flow of the space practical without pulling you away from the heart of the barn. A single step takes you up into the bathroom, where slower moments become part of the stay. A freestanding bath invites long soaks, while the walk-in shower is ideal after fell walks or lakeside rambles. The layout then leads directly through to a spacious double bedroom, a bright and calming room where you can unwind with the TV before settling in for the night. Up the tartan-carpeted stairs, the first floor reveals two further bedrooms, both full of character. The double bedroom features exposed beams and a dressing table, offering a relaxed place to start the day, while the bunk bedroom rises into a high ceiling threaded with beams, creating a sense of fun and space, with a TV ready for quieter evenings. A shower room on this floor, lit by a Velux window, keeps mornings running smoothly for everyone staying together. A final staircase leads to the second floor, where a small mezzanine-style snug with seating provides a flexible retreat, ideal for reading, quiet work, or giving children their own space beneath the roofline. Outside, the front garden offers a pleasant spot to sit with a drink, enjoy fresh air, or relax while pets settle in alongside the rest of the group. A welcoming pub can be found along a nearby country road, a village shop is an easy drive away, and the lakeside town of Windermere sits close enough for spontaneous outings filled with café stops, boat trips, and shoreline walks. From Tullythwaite Barn, the wider Lake District is easily explored. Windermere offers sweeping lake views, gentle cruises across the water, and lively villages filled with independent shops and waterside cafés. Grasmere feels intimate and storybook-like, with stone cottages, lakeside paths, and its famous gingerbread enjoyed fresh from the oven. Keswick brings a lively market town atmosphere, framed by dramatic fells, where walks begin straight from the town centre, Derwentwater reflects the surrounding landscape, and cultural attractions add depth to a day out. Tullythwaite Barn is a well-placed Lake District base made for switching off and heading out.
