Clarence House

About this property

Nestled in the heart of Dalton-in-Furness in Cumbria is the idyllic Clarence House. This wonderful, dog-friendly holiday home benefits from a welcoming interior fitted with contemporary appliances, an electric flame-effect fire and eight beautifully-appointed bedrooms, and a rear patio, all within reach of the coast and the abundance of activities in the Lake District National Park; a fabulous setting for families and friends looking to explore the wonders of Cumbria. Cross the threshold to find the open-plan living space where you can unwind on the plush sofas in front of the gentle warmth of the flame-effect stove and Smart TV or spend the evening whipping up a delicious meal that the whole family can enjoy around the dining table; be sure to raise a toast to the cherished memories you have created so far. Later, step out to the rear of the property; it's a truly wonderful place to admire the sun setting over Dalton-in-Furness. When stars appear overhead, travel inside to wash off the day’s adventures in the sleek bathroom boasting both a Jacuzzi bath and walk-in shower before retiring to one of eight bedrooms. Choose between a family room with king-size and two singles with views over the treetops from the Juliet balcony, a ground-floor double or the double and super-king-size bedrooms, fitted with en-suites, which can be accessed externally, offering privacy. In the barn, you can find the further 2x double bedrooms and 1x Superking, along with two more bathrooms and an additional sitting room, should your group want to break off for some family time. If you can tear yourself away from this idyllic setting explore the heart of Dalton-in-Furness where you can tour its castle or enjoy a break from the kitchen with food at the Brown Cow which dates back to the 16th century. The coast is also within reach, on sunny days head to Roanhead Beach to roam its golden shores with your dog while admiring spectacular views over the Irish Sea; the beach lies in the Sandscale Haws National Nature Reserve with a plethora of walks and information about local wildlife woven throughout. Venture further afield to the Lake District National Park where the adventurous among you can take to the water of Lake Windermere on kayaks, paddle boards or leisurely boats; keen walkers will be in their element thanks to the abundance of trails and peaks including Coniston Old Man, Harter Fell and Quarry Hike. Adventure awaits at Clarence House.

The ancient town of Dalton-in-Furness lies in a narrow valley on that part of the Furness Peninsula which extends deep into Morecambe Bay. Once the leading town of Furness, Dalton has a good selection of shops, restaurants and pubs. The architecture of the town includes some interesting buildings in and around the market place, as well as an elegant Victorian drinking fountain, the market cross and slabs of stone used for fish drying in the 19th century. The 14th-century pele tower, known as Dalton Castle, was originally a place of refuge for the monks of nearby Furness Abbey, an impressive sandstone ruin nestling in a peaceful wooded valley. Within easy reach of the town are the South Lakes Wild Animal Park, the world's only Laurel and Hardy museum at Ulverston and the Haventhwaite Steam Railway which runs to Lakeside, where you can board a steam train for Bowness or Ambleside. Just north of Dalton-in-Furness is the stunning Duddon Estuary and Duddon Valley, with Cartmel, Holker Hall and Grizedale Forest within easy reach. Situated on the edge of the Lake District National Park, and surrounded by mountains and beaches, this area is ideal for walkers, cyclists and nature lovers.
