About this property

This detached barn conversion rests in the cosy village of Morland, only eight miles from the enticing Penrith and its many attractions. Whether you are organising a trip for two or bringing along the family, Old Cow Byre carries all of the charm and beauty you could desire in a holiday home. Walk in through the front door where you will arrive at a small hallway and a large kitchen/diner which seats up to four people. There is a lounge to the right elevated by an electric fire, a lovely place to relax on the comfy sofa or arm chairs, with a view out over the garden to bring the outside in. A fabulous shower room is modern and sophisticated so you can get ready in style day after day, and two bedrooms promise a peaceful night's sleep. Dressers, wardrobes, and bedside tables add a homely feel to the rooms, all calmly decorated with a soothing colour theme. When you are done relaxing indoors, why not adventure outside to the beautiful garden area, divided between a lawn, gravelled area, and patio with furniture. The owner's accommodation is across the lane, and they are happy for guests to visit the chickens, and even enjoy the eggs. The village itself is surrounded by open fields, supporting cattle, sheep and horses. The village of Morland hosts a local pub and cafe, both excellent for a lovely meal after a stroll through the village. The nearby market town of Penrith houses a selection of shops, supermarkets, restaurants, a cinema and swimming baths. Why not visit the Rheged Discovery Centre in Penrith, or nearby Lowther Castle Gardens and Bird of Prey Centre? Ullswater, with frequent cruises from Pooley Bridge, is eight miles away or you may like to visit Appleby, famous for its annual horse fair and a stop on the Settle-Carlisle railway. Visit Old Cow Byre to appreciate the interior, destination, and so much more.

The village of Morland hosts a pub; the Crown Inn and the Mill Yard Cafe. There is also a primary school, the Morland Area Church of England Primary School. Penrith is the local shopping town and Keswick, Kendal and Carlisle are all about 25 miles away. The nearest Lake is Ullswater, which offers frequent cruises from Pooley Bridge, or you may like to visit Appleby.

  • Karen

    We loved the quiet location, and being able to walk into the village, and yes, the pub was open! Cottage was immaculately clean - it's one of the best holiday accommodation that we've stayed in. Lovely welcome basket and friendly/helpful owners.

  • Luella

    The owners were very warm and welcoming. We loved our holiday in The Cow Byre and would highly recommend.

  • Nicola

    Clean, warm, well equipped and a great base for visiting family in the area over Christmas. The cottage had been decorated for us with presents and a welcome hamper left for ourselves and children. Owners on site were very friendly and helpful. Hope to visit again!
