Slow mornings. Wide skies. Nothing demanding your attention.

Set in a quiet rural spot near Grange-over-Sands, Little Barn is a relaxed base for days beside the bay and adventures across the South Lakes.

The single-storey barn has an open-plan kitchen and living space, two comfortable bedrooms and an enclosed garden made for long lunches outside. South-facing views bring light into the barn throughout the day—and some memorable sunsets in the evening.

Little Barn sits in open countryside at Allithwaite, a short journey from the characterful Edwardian town of Grange-over-Sands. Cartmel, the Morecambe Bay coastline and the southern Lake District are all within easy reach.

Lingwood Park is nearby, while local pubs, village shops and memorable days out offer plenty to explore when you feel like leaving the view behind.
