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.

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.
