The Experience
This barn made of Lakeland stone faces out to fields dotted with Shetland sheep, and is part of a cluster of buildings dating from the late 1700s. Take all four self-catering properties and come as a group, with Suzy looking after you.
The spacious, stylish living and dining area has double-height ceilings, a wood-burner and a bedroom next door, plus another upstairs. Basics are in the kitchen and you can stock up in nearby Hawkshead – or opt for Suzy’s delicious vegetarian meals for breakfast or dinner.
Stride the fells, spot wildlife, walk to the Drunken Duck or book yourself onto a yoga or wellbeing retreat here. The Lake District’s attractions are close, such as Ambleside’s tea rooms, shops and cruises on Lake Windermere.

Location
The neighbourhood
Sunny Brow Farm has an elevated position on 33 acres of land in the Lake District National Park and is surrounded by fields, hills and mature woodland, with the nearest neighbour a mile away – all you’ll hear is birdsong, the sound of sheep and the gentle stream nearby.
Local points of interest from Philip Saunders
- In the heart of the South Lakes, Sunny Brow Farm is surrounded by beautiful English countryside in the Lake District National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Explore and relax into our 33 acres of woodland pasture with many varieties of native trees
- We are only three quarters of a mile from the famous Drunken Duck Inn, a five-minute drive to Ambleside with its cafes and shopping. You can also drive/walk to Historic Hawkshead, and on to Near Sawrey, the home of Beatrix Potter.
- Walk up Limestone beck to enjoy views of lake Windermere and Esthwaite Water. Spot birds, badgers and deer, maybe even build a den. At lake Windermere, find cruises, fishing and all manner of watersports.
- Fell walking up Black Crag and over to Tarn Hows, or a little further on towards the famous Langdale Valleys and Pikes, is accessible straight from your front door.
- Sunny Brow Farm offers a selection of treatments, yoga, experiences and cuisine that you can choose from to personalize your holiday.
