    “On arrival met up with the owners and they showed us exactly where to find our accommodation.”

    Lovely friendly hosts! We walked into this charming little cabin, and you had everything you could possibly need to have an enjoyable stay. The cabin was very clean and we loved the outside space with the decking area where you sit on and watch the wildlife by the lake which was beautiful. The hot tub was fantastic although wasn't heated uo when we got their but this a minor issue as we just turned it up to our max temp, and it was perfect! Highly recommend the Chard. It's a quirky lovely ...

The property

The Chard enjoys a rural position on the outskirts of the charming town of Longtown which acts as a centre for exploring four Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty. This romantic hideaway is ideal for a couple seeking to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and explore the magnitude of walks and historical landmarks that are within close reach of the dwelling. After an action-packed day, look forward to relaxing into your evening within the open-plan living room, where bi-folding doors filter in natural light into the space and offer picturesque views of the surrounding gardens, ensuring a tranquil setting for you and your partner. Rustle up a home-cooked meal within the compact kitchen before stepping out onto the decked area to admire the views further and dipping into the bubbling hot tub, a perfect spot for star gazing. As the evening draws to a close, retire to the night's embrace within the bedroom, where a plush double bed with quality linens awaits you. If you can tear yourself away from this idyllic space, head into the centre of Longtown where a selection of amenities awaits you, or venture slightly further to the city of Carlisle where you can discover its 12th century fortress, the medieval cathedral and the superb Tullie House Museum and Art Gallery. Alternatively, brush up on the local history by spending time at Hadrian's Wall or wander the picturesque landscapes of nearby Solway Coast AONB, the Northumberland National Park, North Pennines AONB and the Lake District National Park. The Chard is an idyllic base for exploring the delights of this part of England.

The Chard is one of a group of properties which may be booked together to sleep up to 10 people.
Ideal for groups of friends who like to holiday together with the benefit of individual private facilities.

About the location

LONGTOWN

Gretna Green 7.7 miles; Carlisle 8.5 miles; Brampton 11 miles; Dumfries 27.5 miles

A delightful, well-stocked town in northern Cumbria that runs alongside the River Esk. Longtown is a fantastic base for a holiday as it comes in the centre of four Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, including Solway Coast AONB, the Northumberland National Park, North Pennines AONB and the Lake District National Park.The local area offers a pleasant range of shops, pubs and restaurants for you to choose from. There are some beautiful places nearby, offering even more places to go and things to do. Brampton and Carlisle are nearby with beautiful buildings. As Longtown is so close to Scotland, it would be rude not to visit Dumfries and Galloway. Edinburgh and Glasgow are just over an hours drive away.

Please note as the hot tub is emptied, cleaned and re filled between each booking it may not be at the optimum temperature for your arrival.
