About this property
2 Peggies Barn - Rural Holiday Home with stunning views
No 2 Peggies Barn is a fabulous three-bedroom stone-built barn conversion situated in the picturesque Lyvennet Valley, just 1.5 miles from both Maulds Meaburn and Kings Meaburn, 13 miles from Penrith and 10 miles from Appleby, with wonderful views of open farmland and grazing livestock.
Originally a Westmorland stone barn, the building has been sympathetically converted while still gaining many of the original features, including original wood beams and exposed stone walls, and now spans two floors, the ground floor comparing the grand double-height entrance hallway that leads off to the open plan kitchen, which is very well equipped, the living and dining area, a spectacular space for all the family to enjoy whether relaxing on the comfy sofas or sitting around the dining table for a meal. On warmer days, open the patio doors, expanding the space to the patio, complete with outdoor garden furniture. However, the large wood-burning fire will keep you all toasty warm even on chilly days.
Also on the ground floor is the utility room with a washing machine and cupboard storage, a WC and the first of three bedrooms, a double with en suite shower room comprising a walk-in shower, toilet and basin; this room is ideal for guests with limited mobility.
Upstairs (13 steps) is bedroom 2, a king-size double with en suite shower facilities and bedroom 3, the largest bedroom with a king-size double bed, wall-mounted Freeview TV and en suite facilities comparing a shower, bathtub, basin and toilet. The upstairs hallway provides additional cupboard storage if required.
Parking is available for up to two cars on the gravel driveway.
No 2 sits next door to No 1 Peggies Barn, an equally lovely property with one bedroom comprising a zip & link double bed that can be rented with No 1 if needed to extend occupancy to eight guests, but please note that while there is sufficient crockery, cutlery etc. in No 2, the dining table seat only six guests.
