Katherine “We have just returned after a short break in this lovely studio.”
It is spacious, modern, spotless and has the most beautiful views towards the lake district. The studio was warm and full of natural light, the outdoor space was secluded and very well maintained with lots of outdoor seating options. Our sight hound loved the expansive views from the picture window and we sat most mornings enjoying coffee and watching the sun light up the hills in the distance. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and felt pampered by the wonderful choice of necessities and extras in the welcome pack, we were delighted as it was unexpectedly thoughtful. A 5 minute drive to Penrith for dog walks to the Beacon and around the nature reserve and local shopping too. A perfect short break, we hope to come back!
- Katherine, June 2024Elishia “We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!”
Would highly recommend this accommodation to anyone that wants to visit the Lake District. Our hosts were very welcoming and went above and beyond.
- Elishia, May 2024Johnny “We had a wonderful stay here.”
The accommodation is stylish, modern and has a fantastic view of the nearby peaks and green fields. Our dog loved playing in the large garden on the property. The hosts Pam and Neil were very welcoming and we were blown away with their hospitality. We had just married and they went well above and beyond, gifting a card and a bottle of champagne to us. The welcome basket was high quality. Would highly recommend, a great experience and value for money.

- Julie, March 2024Thank you Julie for your kind comments, you are always welcome also thanks for leaving the Studio spotless. Neil Pam Property Owner
DAVID “Amazing place.”
spotless and friendly welcome. Only 1 thing i could possibly pull up was the shower. No pressure. Other than this we had an amazing few days of peace and quiet and we will be returning in the warmer months.
- DAVID, March 2024Karina “Thank you for a fantastic weekend, the studio was exactly as you had described and more.”
The perfect location for a relaxing trip, views were amazing. Pam and Neil were the perfect hosts, greeted us with the best welcoming pack, never had so much on arrival. Always on hand to assist with any needs. Zuma (dog) loved the walks in the countryside. We will definitely return again.
- Karina, February 2024Robert “Accommodation was a perfect match for our requirements and is in a good location for accessing other areas.”
It was very clean and has a well planned layout. The external balcony & garden for the dog completed this great use of space. The welcome pack was the most generous we have received. Hope to get back next year.
- Robert, October 2023David “We had a lovely week in the lakes, the studio charonini was such a nice place to stay, perfect for a couple (with or without a dog) Neil and Pam were very welcoming and also left a lovely welcome hamper on arrival.”
Will defo be staying again David, Lucy (and fletcher the dog)
- David, September 2023Susan “We had a super stay.”
The hosts were amazing and the hamper they left for us was the best we’d had. Cottage was lovely extremely clean, well equipped and very comfortable. I would highly recommend it & the area was an excellent base for your holiday
- Susan, September 2023Natalie “By far the best property we have stayed at with our dog in the UK (and we have stayed in quite a few).”
It is clean, spacious and the owners have gone above and beyond to make sure people staying in their property are well looked after. The property is a very good size, especially the bathroom. There is a large enclosed garden which was great for our dog. The welcome pack was incredible, wine, beer, milk, bread, biscuits, fruit and more. It was thoughtful and generous. Cleaning products were provided. More than you would expect and also full sized items. Items such as washing up liquid, anti-bacterial spray, kitchen roll, bin bags on a roll etc. A nice touch in the bathroom was a laundry basket. Something so simple that makes a huge difference much better than having to store dirty clothes in a bag or suitcase. The bedding and towels smelled clean and fresh and the scent lasted for nearly the full week. Location is excellent. Easy to get to Carlisle, Penrith and of course the Lakes. We had a lovely week staying at The Studio - Charonini and would definitely recommend this property.
- Natalie, August 2023Daniel “Great place, 100% coming back!”

The studio had everything we needed, in the perfect location and extremely clean. The welcome basket had everything you needed to start you off, wonderful hosts. Very secure garden, even though our dog was more interested in the goose! We would definitely recommend the studio. A big thank you from Jake, Kira and Mr. Monty x
- Kira, July 2023Calum “We have just recently returned from 3 nights here with our dog and it was perfect for us!”
Spotlessly clean, the owners Pam and Neil are really friendly and welcoming! We really appreciated the lovely welcome pack and the garden was a fab size for our dog! The view is also amazing from the large side window in the cabin! Would definitely recommend and stay here again! Thank you for a lovely long weekend :)
- Calum, June 2023Julia “A very lovely studio cabin with all the facilities needed for a few days away, and a really good sized sunny garden for our little dog.”
Pam was also a super, friendly host and provided a lovely welcome hamper on arrival. Only 20 or so minutes drive from Ullswater for a walk by the water and around 45 minutes to an hour’s drive from Windermere and Grizedale Forest - a perfect little break away
- Julia, April 2023Janet “An immaculate place with all the comforts of home.”
Private garden with a choice of settings in which to relax. Friendly accommodating hosts and a very generous welcome hamper. The best of both worlds, panoramic countryside views, and Penrith, Keswick, and Ullswater within 30 mins, with all the fellwalking you will ever need. I have stayed in many holiday homes and this is one of the most outstanding, for comfort and value.

- Thomas, August 2022Joanne “The studio Charonini is an absolute gem of a property!”
Stood in a slightly elevated position overlooking the Cumbrian landscape with spectacular views. There is a decking area to the side of the property where you can sit and enjoy a glass of wine whilst taking in the view. The hosts Pam & Neil were so welcoming and very friendly, we really enjoyed our daily chats with them. The very generous welcome pack is the best we’ve ever had. The property itself is very modern and finished to a high standard. It’s immaculate and has everything you need for a perfect stay. It has an enclosed rear garden that our dog Milo loved chasing his ball around. The location is perfect for visiting the Lakes and Southern Scotland. I can’t recommend this property enough! You need to book a stay to see for yourself! We will definitely be returning. Massive thanks to Pam & Neil!

Well worth a visit

The property
The Studio - Charonini is a contemporary, studio-style property in Plumpton near Penrith, Cumbria, surrounded by countryside.
This pet-friendly apartment offers a romantic break with open-plan living, plenty of outdoor space, and convenient access to both the Lake District and the North Pennines. For those planning an outdoor excursion, there are two parking places, one off-road and the other in the garage with bike storage.
Climb the stairs to your home-away-from-home, where an open-plan space has been lovingly furnished; relax into the contemporary kitchen with marble counters to prepare a home-cooked supper for your other half, which will be served at the breakfast bar for two.
The area is bright and airy to curl up on the sofa with a good book in the mornings, while nights may be spent watching the Smart TV. Step out onto the sheltered patio with a nice glass of wine and enjoy the panoramic views of the countryside, or use the gas barbecue on the elevated terrace.
If you time it just so, you'll be able to dine as the sun sets, while your pet can relax on the lawn.
After a day of hiking in the Lake District, return to the shower room for a hot shower before getting ready for bed.
A plush king-size bed is nestled away in the corner, where you'll wake up to the gorgeous, countryside views from the picture window just opposite.
Begin your vacation by exploring Penrith, a delightful town with plenty of shops and cafes for your self-catering stay, as well as historic sights like the ruins of Penrith Castle, the Penrith and Eden Museum, and the curious passageways of the nearby Brougham Castle.
Take a short trip into the Lake District if you're looking for some fresh air; places like Pooley Bridge on the shores of Ullswater and Keswick along Derwentwater are popular spots for scenic hikes and attractions, including Keswick's Theatre By The Lake for a romantic evening!
You can also climb the nearby Cross Fell, the area's tallest peak, Ashgill Force, and the Pennine Way, England's first National Trail, in the North Pennines to the east.
Spend the day at Carlisle, on the Scottish Border, with its wealth of history; Carlisle Castle and Cathedral are stunning, and Hadrian's Wall is a short walk away along the historic fort ruins.
With your other half, escape to Cumbria's countryside at The Studio - Charonini.
Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £100.
