Outside
To the front and rear of the barn you can enjoy stunning 360° views of Ennerdale Valley and Water, the surrounding mountains and valley. Seating areas on the cobbled patio and grassed areas are perfect for an evening drink as the sun sets over the water.
Or make the most of the under cover, open-plan barn to enjoy a barbecue in all types of Lakeland weather.

"It was a lovely and most amazing experience of our life, being surrounded by such incredible mountains, beautiful views, lakes, sheep, cows, the green landscape and on top if that the Wild Wool Barn accommodation! It opens our view on the how an old infrastructure of stone houses can also be so peaceful, warm and cosy. Thank you for providing this kind of architecture and preserving it in the most natural way. It was amazing - my daughters love playing board games and the toddler loved to play with the toy cars. Looking forward to visiting next year! Ali and Family July 2023"

"Lovely place to stay for a few days - great to get away from it all and totally unplug from WiFi and TV! We had our cosy family time here, and the stunning walks round Buttermere and Ennerdale Water - wonderful, thank you!"
