Bike store. Private parking for 1 car. Please note: There is a fenced stream in the grounds, 220 yards away.. This fabulous semi-detached barn conversion provides a perfect retreat for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Set adjacent to the owner’s home and amongst farmland it is ideal for wildlife spotting with deer roaming in the front field and red squirrels being frequent visitors to the bird feeder right outside the kitchen window.
It is situated down a long farm track, on the edge of the Lake District National Park and on the recognised National Cycle Route 7, which makes up part of the famous sea to sea route. It’s five miles from Hesket New Market, in a truly tranquil location. Mere Croft was converted to a good standard, with tiled floors, gorgeous high beamed ceilings and an oak staircase. It has great facilities for two couples, including Wi-Fi and two en-suite bedrooms, one of which is a ground floor walk in shower, convenient for guests with mobility problems.
Just down the road is the beautiful, historic Hutton in the Forest which hosts regular events including Potfest (the international ceramics festival) and the local Skelton Show. The location is perfect to explore north and east Lakeland, the Eden Valley, Carlisle and the Scottish Borders. If you are looking to bring your horse on holiday, stabling and grazing can be provided onsite for an additional cost.
There are good quiet roads for hacking from the cottage, there is a riding school down the road and both Greenlands and Newton Rigg equestrian centres are a short drive away.

Mere Croft has been converted to a very high standard and has everything you would need.
Mere Croft has been converted to a very high standard and has everything you would need. We had a lovely welcome of beautiful fresh flowers in all the rooms, wine and homemade cake and fudge, on arrival, what a welcome. There is only one little niggle with respect to the bedroom upstairs. The single beds aren’t really compatible to put together to make into a double bed, which is great for children, but I think if there was more flexibility it would suit both families and couples.

Very nice place to stay, the owners are very friendly and provided a lot of the essentials for your arrival. It is a working farm but we really enjoyed seeing the lambs. Ideal for dogs, plenty of walks. Even swa a red squirrel coming to feed every day. There was only 2 of us so it was ideal to have an ensuite bedroom downstairs. Would definitely go there again.

Despite having booking on the morning of the day we were arriving, the hosts were extremely accommodating. We were thrilled to discover this great place. It has a cosy cottage feel with all mod cons. Very clean with every necessity supplied. Along with the basics of bread, butter and milk, there was also a bottle of wine, some local fudge some freshly laid eggs from the chickens wandering around under the kitchen window. Then Chris arrived with her gorgeous homemade lemon drizzle cake. The hosts Adrian and Chris were lovely, very welcoming and friendly. Eager to ensure that we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. We had a great time here and plan to return asap. We think that anyone who chooses to stay here will not be disappointed.
