Overview
Tanglewood Barn in Penton, Cumbria is a spacious, luxury barn conversion on a small farm, called Wood Farm, with 3 bedrooms, sleeping 6 with the option of using the sofa bed in the twin room (perfect for kids), to take total capacity to 8 guests. The Barn sits in a large, secluded courtyard setting with fabulous panoramic views.

Downstairs there is a large kitchen/dining room, a comfortable sitting room with a multi-fuel stove and widescreen Smart TV and a selection of books and games, a large bathroom with separate bath & rain shower and a lovely bright bedroom with a king-size bed. The beautiful vaulted-ceiling open-plan kitchen and dining area with french doors leading onto the patio makes for an amazing space for guests to gather whilst preparing a lovely meal on the large Electric Rangemaster.

Upstairs onto the floating landing, is a twin bedroom sleeping two and an optional double sofa bed, a shower room and a luxurious master bedroom complete with dressing table, full-length mirror. All rooms have stunning views over the valley.

Alfresco dining outside on the patio in the large private garden with secure fencing for dogs. Views from the garden are over farmland to the Scottish borders. You can walk in the local woods and around our large ponds, and in the farm fields. On the farm, we have a few rare breed pigs, two donkeys and three alpacas and an abundance of birdlife and roe deer around.

The farm is set on its own hilltop with panoramic views to the Northern Pennines, to the Lake District and the Caldbeck Fells, to the Solway Firth and the Scottish Borders.

Towels, linen and loo rolls are provided. Well-behaved dogs are welcome on the farm and in the Barn, but strictly not on any furniture nor in the bedrooms. The dogs must be cleaned before entering the Barn. A dryer is available for use, and a washing machine by arrangement.

Very peaceful location, and good for exploring Scottish Borders and the Lake District. Lovely barn, cosy living room, spacious kitchen with superb views and really comfy beds. The barn is remote and a good 20 mins from local convenience stores. Carlisle and Gretna are reasonably close too. The garden is great for dogs and our German shepherd puppy loved getting to know the piglets despite barking at them. They weren't bothered

Tanglewood Barn is stunning, from the barn itself to the views from the property. It really is an escape from reality. The barn has everything you could ask for. Michael the owner is very friendly and accommodating and the animals are a real treat. Would definitely recommend to others and will be returning in the not so distant future. A great big thank you.
