The Eltermere Old Barn sleeps up to 8 guests and enjoys an enviable position, next to the Eltermere Inn with the most beautiful views over Elterwater with Loughrigg Fell to your left, Park Fell and Black Fell to your right and Wansfell straight over Elterwater in the distance. Sit on the terrace outside the kitchen, relax and take it all in. This is surely the heart of the Lake District – you will certainly lose your heart to it! Leaving the outstanding views and stepping into the beautiful farmhouse-style kitchen, there is a great sense of space, with the large kitchen island and traditional Aga range. This is the perfect room to prepare and enjoy family meals or celebrate a special occasion together. The large living room next door is the perfect place to relax with its contemporary furnishings and traditional décor. Privacy is assured with stairs to the bedroom floor at both ends of the house, and the mix of contemporary and traditional styling is continued throughout the four bedrooms, which all enjoy the views out towards Elterwater. The sense of luxury is complimented by the three bathrooms, which are light and modern. There is designated onsite parking for 2 cars.

Elterwater is a charming village in the heart of Langdale and the Lake District. The famous Britannia Inn is just a short stroll away from the front door and Slates Bistro is on the corner opposite Elterwater’s magnificent maple tree. For fine dining, the welcoming Eltermere Inn is right beside the Barn. Surrounded by extensive lawns framed with awe-inspiring views, the Eltermere Inn combines the highest standards of service, good food and informality. For those who wish to explore further afield, a bus stop is located opposite Elterwater’s Britannia Inn. Buses are frequent and connect guests with the wider towns and outstanding scenery of this UNESCO World Heritage Site. Leaving the car behind and jumping on a bus to explore the National Park not only helps to look after the spectacular landscape but also gives passengers the opportunity to see it without the challenge of negotiating narrow, and sometimes steep, country lanes or search for parking at your destination. By sitting back watching the landscape go by, the journey becomes part of your adventure!
