The apartment also features a modern shower room, complete with a walk-in shower, basin, heated towel rail, and WC, offering a stylish and functional setup for your stay.

The heart of Buckbarrow is its open-plan living area, where the kitchen, dining, and sitting spaces flow together seamlessly.

About the location

ESKDALE VALLEY

Irton 2.6 miles; Gosforth 4.3 miles; Seascale 5.4 miles

The small village of Eskdale Green sits amongst beautiful Lakeland countryside and consists of a scattering of cottages, some farm dwellings and a number of outstanding traditional English pubs serving good food. An area relatively unknown to many Lakeland visitors, this great location boasts a skyline dominated by the towering peaks of Scafell - England's highest peak, as well as Great Gable, Hard Knott, Harter Fell and Muncaster Fell, whilst the nearby stunning valleys of Eskdale, Wasdale, Ennerdale and Dunnerdale provide breathtaking and ever-changing scenery to be enjoyed throughout the year. The valley is notable as being one of few major valleys in the Lake District not to have its own lake, although several tarns are perched above the valley sides. Local attractions include Muncaster Castle, the World Owl Centre and the Ravenglass to Eskdale miniature railway, one of the most beautiful train journeys imaginable. With both beautiful Wastwater - the deepest lake in the country and St Olaf's - the smallest church, amongst the many well known landmarks in this awe inspiring and beautiful area also within easy reach, this stunning location will have visitors returning time and time again.

Note: There is a Good Housekeeping Bond of 250 GPB on this property
