Marsh Garth
Description
Tucked away in Kirkby-in-Furness, Cumbria, is this lovely, detached bungalow, Marsh Garth.
Enjoying a superb location within a quiet cul-de-sac in the Lake District National Park, Marsh Garth is a wonderful dog-friendly choice for couples or a family of four.
The property benefits from an off-road parking space, and a rear enclosed garden with furniture for alfresco dining with views of Black Combe, a hose pipe for washing off muddy paws and walking gear, and a garage where you can store bikes and paddleboards.
Look forward to cooking up a storm in the well-equipped kitchen/diner, before serving up the fruits of your labour at the dining table for four.
After dinner, retreat to the sitting room, where you can curl up on the sumptuous seating with your favourite tipple in hand and select a much-loved show from the Smart TV.
Continue through to find a beautiful bathroom, where you can freshen up with your choice of bath or shower, along with two tastefully decorated bedrooms, a super-king-size with zip/link and a double.
Explore the village, enjoy leisurely strolls along the Kirkby Pool, or pay a visit to one of Kirkby's two pubs; The Commercial Pub is home to a basic village store during pub opening hours.
Your new-home-from-home provides easy access to all of the outdoor activities the Lakes has to offer, including fell walking, watersports, cycling and forest trails.
The neighbouring village of Grizebeck offers a pub, petrol station and shop, and the charming village of Broughton-in-Furness is home to a Post Office, bakery, grocers and butchers together with two petrol stations, tourist information and three pubs.
There are trails to suit all abilities including the Cumbria Coastal Way, Kirkby Moor, and also in the Duddon Valley, Broughton-In-Furness and Woodland areas.
Next stop is Ulverston, where you can picnic in Ford Park, tour the Laurel & Hardy Museum, enjoy the delights of the Shed 1 Gin Distillery, and dine at the traditional pub of The Farmers.
Continue onto Grange-over-Sands, where you can wander through the charming Ornamental Gardens, test out your swing at the excellent golf club, and refuel at The Estuary Bistro.
For a taste of the coast, dog-friendly beaches can be easily reached at Askam-in-Furness, Roanhead near Barrow-in-Furness and Haverigg near Millom.
If you fancy exploring further up the coast of the Western Lakes you can enjoy Muncaster Castle, Ravenglass and Eskdale where you’ll find the La’al Ratty narrow gauge steam railway.
Adventure awaits at Marsh Garth.

What guests are saying
Lovely bungalow, very clean, comfy and alot bigger than it looks in the pictures.
The owners have thought of everything you could want, from dog bowls and treats to coffee, tea and sweet treats for human guests. It makes you feel like you're wanted to stay. Great back garden and off road parking are a huge bonus. Friendly neighbours, lots of walks right from the doorstep and beautiful views all round. I'd highly recommend to anyone, its a fantastic place, thank you.
Easy to find and great communication prior to arrival regarding key code to access property- easy to find following the directions.
great spacious bungalow with everything you could possibly need and more to make your stay comfortable. a modern bathroom with a Fabulous shower- a large fitted kitchen with plenty of storage space and everything you could possible need to cook a meal. a large enclosed garden which was great for the dog. Quiet location with plenty to do in the surrounding area. only parking for one vehicle the owners do say there is parking further down in the cul-de-sac but we found this difficult and we were unable to park a second vehicle. although the property was fabulous it was a little tired looking in places and when we arrived there was a very strong fusty smell throughout the bungalow as though it had been shut up for some time- we had to air the bungalow throughout to get rid of the smell but it still lingered in the back bedroom. overall we had a great stay
Excellent location for the South Lakes, lots to do and see in the surrounding area.
The bungalow was very clean on arrival. It is well equipped, with a lovey garden for dogs. We really enjoyed our stay and are looking to book again soon.
