Dove Tail Barn, Yorkshire Dales

This chic and unique couples' hideaway takes the form of a converted Lakeland barn, nestled in rural bliss and overlooking the lush Lyth Valley. A long driveway leads to the barn, with parking by the log store.

Enter via the stylish kitchen, with slate floor, matching slate worktops and everything you'll need for dining in. The lounge / dining room incorporates the barn door, with deep-cushioned furnishings, rug and woodburning stove.

The Villeroy & Bosch luxury wet room is on this floor. Upstairs to the romantic double bedroom, with a magnificent Scandinavian king-size bed, sky lights and mood lighting.

Natural Cedar Hot Tub for 2 people. Bathe in a solid cedar tub and enjoy the calming experience whilst taking in stunning views towards Gummers How.

The natural aroma of cedar in this tranquil setting is a treat for all nature lovers. The cedar tub is wood fired and takes up to 2 hours to reach bathing temperature.

Bags of Kiln dried logs are stored next to the tub at the cost of £10.00 per bag. The Lyth Valley is to the east of Lake Windermere, overlooked by the famous Lake District walks on Scout Scar and Whitbarrow Scar.

The sheltered valley is famous for its damson orchards, with gorgeous white blossom in spring. The landscapes are scattered with country homes and rural Lake District cottages, as well as a choice of several acclaimed Lake District country pubs, such as The Punch Bowl at Crosthwaite, the Black Labrador at Underbarrow, and the Mason's Arms at Strawberry Bank.

A romantic walk nearby is the ascent of Gummers How, which offers simply wonderful views of Lake Windermere from the top. The Cartmel Fell tarns walk is also a lovely afternoon's worth, starting at Bowland Bridge's historic church.
