    “Firstly would like to mention the Positives, Beautiful Location over looking such Georgous scenery and fields what went on and on with such character cows coming up to you every morning to say hello and away from built up areas just what we both needed, the owner was a true gentleman, the cottage had a good outdoor area with the added Hot Tub which came in use every evening, the shepherds pie and bottle of fizz also a lovely touch on arrival, The only thing what was a little disappointed in was the size of the bathroom, it wasn't the biggest, so if your a slightly bigger person you would struggle to move around or even fit in the shower and on the toilet too also the pressure of the shower isn't the greatest, some may say does this really matter?”

    To us it did but we managed to get by for the days we was here.... The location was just what we both needed just to get away from white noise and built up areas, the drive up to this location was easy to find and straight forward, the area outside was perfect and the drive around the different areas was beautiful, it's not for people who do have walking difficulties but just like us we drove around and escaped in our car and different local points of history, town is only 10 miles away and ...

The location was just what we both needed just to get away from white noise and built up areas, the drive up to this location was easy to find and straight forward, the area outside was perfect and the drive around the different areas was beautiful, it's not for people who do have walking difficulties but just like us we drove around and escaped in our car and different local points of history, town is only 10 miles away and there's loads of like bits to see, we both took the risk to do something different to help our mental health and it was the perfect decision, would we come back...Yes we would....take a chance, you'll never know it may just be tge right choice....Perfect little getaway to reset and take time out for both our Mental Health....

The property

Brampton 5.6 miles.

Situated in the peaceful Heads Nook in Cumbria is High Rigg Shepherd's Sunset, an enchanting shepherd's hut boasting countryside views from the hot tub on the decking.

With easy access to the market town of Brampton and the thriving Lake District National Park, this lodge makes for a perfect base for a couple or solo traveller to explore the area or stay in and relax in peace.

On arrival at the lodge, park your car and make your way through the wooden-fence-lined path to reach your abode for the trip, adding to the naturistic feel in the area.

Climb the step up to the decking and make your way inside to discover a convenient open-plan living space.

Kick off your shoes and relax in front of the TV for a couple of hours while the woodburning stove gently roars in the background.

From here, utilise the kitchen and whip up a delicious meal for your loved one to enjoy at the dining table over a glass of wine, or perhaps take your meals alfresco and admire the views while out on the decking.

Enjoy a soak in the hot tub as the evening draws to a close, and when sleep calls, make your way inside to rest your eyes ahead of an adventurous day out.

In the morning, wake up with a refreshing shower in the sleek fitted shower room, before taking your coffee outside for a moment of relaxation to start the day.

About the location

BRAMPTON, CUMBRIA

Carlisle 10 miles.

The market town of Brampton is the ideal base for exploring Hadrian’s Wall. The town boasts a rich and colourful history going back to the Roman occupation, Border reivers from Scotland and the Jacobite uprisings, plus bonnie Prince Charlie established his headquarters in one of the old buildings in Brampton. In the centre of the town is Moot Hall, which was built in 1817, and now houses the Tourist Information Centre, and there is a large motte to the east of the town, which is 135 feet high and has the statue of the 7th Earl of Carlisle on it. A few miles outside Brampton is Talkin Tarn Country Park. It covers 120 acres of farmland and woodland, 65 of which make up the Tarn, a 10,000 year old glacial lake, fed by underwater springs. Two miles away is Gelt Woods, which is an ancient woodland and RSPB nature reserve and has the River Gelt running through it. Brampton is a wonderful base for exploring this historic and scenic area.
