The Dairy at Brackenthwaite Farm
Description
The Dairy at Brackenthwaite Farm is a wonderfully unique conversion with original features to wow all those who stay here. Set within ten acres of private land in the heart of the Arnside and Silverdale National Landscape, and with views of The Old Man of Coniston and The Lake District fells, here you can enjoy some of the country’s most remarkable surroundings and an abundance of wildlife, making it a perfect place to relax and unwind or get out and explore.
The property is a stylish, self-contained one-bedroom annex with mezzanine bedroom and tall windows that make the property wonderfully light and bright. The layout is open plan with tall ceilings with original beams in the living area. The kitchen is spacious and very well equipped. Dining is at the breakfast bar that forms part of the kitchen and living area. Unique features include a wood burning stove for winter warmth, underfloor heating in the bathroom with mood lighting to create the best evening relaxation, and an impressive well at floor level with glass top and colour changing lights create pleasing mood lighting movements on the ceiling above during dark evenings. The bedroom contains a wonderfully comfortable super-king size bed that can also be made into a twin bed by request at the time of booking.
Parking is immediately adjacent to the property and to the front of the property is a semi-private outdoor seating area with west-facing views that afford The Dairy with some truly remarkable sunsets. The outdoor seating area then open onto The Orchard, which is where you may freely exercise and dogs accompanying you. The Orchard also forms part of the 1-mile walk around the farm and can be used as an additional sitting out area on the various benches and seats provided. You may also enjoy a quick relax in the hammock or a gentle swing in the tree swing at the old oak tree.
It is from The Orchard where you might like to start the 1-mile walk that gently takes you around the farm estate. On this walkabout you can enjoy some lovely views and sights including an enclosed wildlife area, new wooded areas, an open wildflower meadow, and meet some of the other resident animals onsite including Kunekune pigs, sheep, goats, hens, ducks, and other poultry. All of these are pets, there for enhancing the visitor experience. The latter also provide some of the most excellent free-range eggs!
The Dairy comes with a charcoal fired BBQ as standard, to be used at your pleasure. It is a big hit with couples who seek quality accommodation, something memorable, and perhaps a little romance. People who love the great outdoors and some natural wonder.

What guests are saying
The hosts Matthew and Harry live on site, the are really welcoming and available to answer any questions or provide extras detailed in the welcome book.
The property really is unique in design and we really loved it's clever use of space: it's open plan with an enclosed bathroom. The property was spotless and well maintained. We stayed for 4 nights and if you really want rest and relaxation you won't find a more peaceful place to do that. The open country side views and location of the accommodation is just lovely.
A really lovely stay at the dairy.
Incredibly dog friendly (our little lady was very well catered for - a huge field to run around in, with balls a plenty!) a great base to explore North Lancs and the lakes. The property was really lovely - the well in the living room was a nice touch and the owners were really welcoming.
We had a lovely weekend break at Brackenthwaite Farm, we stayed in the dairy !
It was fantastic so comfy and the dog exercise area was a big yes
