    “Overall the property was comfortable, warm and the owner very helpful with the WiFi issue (an external outage so not the owner's fault).”

    However, there were a few snags that merit mentioning. Firstly, there isn't "welcome" pack with instructions on how to use the cooker, microwave, dishwasher, washing machine, shower or storage heaters. Also the few tourism leaflets in the property were very out of date - "What's On" for 2021, 2022 etc. Some of the takeaway menus were for local restaurants no longer trading.

    However, there were a few snags that merit mentioning. Firstly, there isn't "welcome" pack with instructions on how to use the cooker, microwave, dishwasher, washing machine, shower or storage heaters. Also the few tourism leaflets in the property were very out of date - "What's On" for 2021, 2022 etc. Some of the takeaway menus were for local restaurants no longer trading. The hot tap in the bathroom washbasin was extremely loose and had to be controlled with two hands to prevent possible detachment from the pipe. A pool of water underneath the basin was also apparent from leakage. The taps in the kitchen area were also very loose and had to handled very gingerly. The mirror in the open plan area was very dirty but we cleaned that ourselves. There was a dirty, wine stained glass in the cupboard and no corkscrew or scissors in the kitchen utensils. Would we stay there again? Actually, yes we would. The negatives listed could be addressed very easily and the accommodation would be a lovely welcoming place for short stays. Martin & Mandy Ellison

The property

A delightful, stone-built, semi-detached cottage on a working livestock farm in the rural hamlet of Milton, two miles from Brampton.

Created from the careful, thoughtful conversion of an old dairy, this Milton cottage is tastefully decorated, with exposed crook beams, stonework, a woodburner and modern kitchen.

A charming Milton cottage with accommodation all on one level, the property is further enhanced by a spacious main bedroom with exposed beams, and outside, a delightful decked area with countryside views.

For those looking to tackle magnificent Hadrian's Wall, or explore the North Pennines, this is the ideal Milton cottage.

Note: This cottage is next to Refs. 3739, 4585, 917515, 922499, 931769 and 941220, 949797, together they sleep 30.

About the location

MILTON

Brampton 2 miles; Hadrian's Wall 7 miles; Carlisle 11 miles.

The small rural village of Milton is ideally placed for exploring northern Cumbria, including not-to-be-missed Hadrian's Wall, the lovely coastline of the Solway Firth and the dramatic northern Lake District National Park. The nearby market town of Brampton has a rich and colourful history going back to the Roman occupation, Border raiders from Scotland and the Jacobite uprisings. Bonnie Prince Charlie established his headquarters in one of the old buildings in Brampton, which is now a shop. A few miles outside Brampton is Talkin Tarn Country Park. It covers 180 acres, 65 of which make up the Tarn, a 10,000 year old glacial lake, fed by underwater springs. Further south is Gelt Woods which is an ancient woodland with the River Gelt running through. A superb base for exploring this historic and scenically beautiful area.

This property offers the following short breaks:

  • Winter
  • Off-season
