About this property

Brampton 4.8 miles. Get ready for a romantic retreat away to a historic destination in a beautifully renovated barn conversion; Fortress is a unique base with easy access to discover northern Cumbria. This stunning property can be found on the owner's large grounds of former farmland, resting on the outskirts of Irthington and close to the market town of Brampton. A shared ground floor entrance leads you straight into the welcoming abode, featuring a stylish open-plan living space complemented with a contemporary kitchen, intimate dining space and homely lounge area. Spend a quiet evening in as you prepare a date night meal for two in the kitchen, equipped with an oven, hob, fridge and dishwasher, before opening a bottle of wine and enjoying your delicious home-cooked meal on the dining table.

Once your bellies are full and the dishes have been put away, move on over to the lovely sitting area where you can snuggle up to watch a film after a long day of exploring the countryside. In the summer months, meals can be enjoyed outside on the enclosed patio area, enhanced with a delightful seating area and a barbecue, ideal for a sunny afternoon accompanied by a cold pint of beer. When you're ready to call it a day, run a soothing bubble bath in the spacious bathroom before tucking yourself in to the glorious double bed, there's even a TV in here to relish on a lazy morning before hopping in the overhead shower.

  • Rosemary

    Ideal for The Lakes or Scotland.

  • Lubka

    It lends itself well to cleaning and is really well designed. The bed was super comfortable. The added bonus of a private patio with table and chairs allowed us the enjoy the good weather and have breakfast outside. There is everything one needs in the kitchen area and detergent, bin liners and other consumables were also provided. There was ample gel and anti-viral wipes. Allocated parking. Excellent place to explore the local area.
