The Orchard is a custom shepherd's hut located in rural Cumbria that sleeps two. Don't let its humble, rustic appearance deceive you; the property is fitted with underfloor heating throughout, ensuring that you'll stay toasty and warm no matter what time of year you visit. If you plan to stay over the summer, then you'll be just as comfortable at the Orchard; its outdoor seating area provides the perfect place for you to relax in the sunshine and enjoy the sights and sounds of the local wildlife.
Visitors will be stunned by the breathtaking Lake District views available from the property. It's also situated on private, working farmland, offering you the perfect way to experience authentic, rural Cumbria. You'll find that the Orchard is a short distance from the heart of the Lake District National Park, too, making this a fantastic getaway destination for passionate hikers and cyclists hoping to sample some of England's finest scenery and natural landscapes.
What's more, if you'll be travelling by car, then you'll have convenient access to private, onsite parking. And, guests who are especially environmentally aware will be sure to appreciate that the Orchard is, where possible, stocked with sustainable, refillable cleaning products and toiletries.
The Orchard's cosy and homely open-plan kitchen and living space is equipped with everything you could possibly need for a comfortable, relaxing Lake District getaway. Situated at one end of the hut is the cosy double bed nook, which boasts its own smart TV; the ideal place for a slow morning spent watching movies with your nearest and dearest.
At the heart of the Orchard is the kitchen and living area. The kitchen is fully equipped, making it ideal for guests looking to self-cater, and the living space comes kitted out with a comfortable sofa, a folding table and chairs, and stunning views of the surrounding countryside. Finally, at the other end of the property is the bathroom, which is completed by its luxurious shower and homely finishings.
Guests will find that the Orchard is located in one of the UK's most scenic and picturesque regions; with the Lake District on your doorstep, there's plenty to do and see nearby! Explore the majestic Scafell Pike, the charming castles of Wray and Lowther, beautiful Derwentwater and the lush Whinlatter Forest. The historic villages of Grasmere, Hawkshead and Windermere are all also well worth a visit.

Leave a reviewThis was the perfect little place for our holiday in the Lake District! The hut had everything we needed and was very modern but still cosy. I would highly recommend this shepherds hut for a holiday and would definitely stay again!

Perfect stay in this beautiful shepherd's hut. Its interior is of such high quality and the area is amazing. It has everything you would need, washing up liquid, hand soap, shower gel, tea, sugar and even ground coffee for the cafetiere. The surrounding area has the most beautiful walks and the family are lovely. We would recommend this hut 100% and the fact that we could take our dog too was brilliant. Book it you won't be disappointed
