Traditional Lakeland Hideaway Cottage for two, close to the Lakes and Dales
Pear Tree Barn is a wonderful example of a traditional detached property that has been cleverly transformed to create a cosy holiday retreat for two. It is a superb choice for couples looking for that romantic getaway and for spending precious time together in quality surroundings. The accommodation is small but perfectly formed with carefully chosen accessories to create a stylish, contemporary look. Two minutes drive from Junction 36 of the M6, with easy access to the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales. The local market town of Kendal and the popular village of Kirkby Lonsdale are only a short drive away. There is a village shop in the fuel station quarter of a mile away. The property has its own parking space and patio with outdoor seating. Across the lane is the popular Crooklands Hotel with a lovely restaurant or bar meals and local ales in the snug.

A beautiful perfect barn conversion for 2 people equipped with everything you need. A relaxing place to come home to after a busy day in the Lakes with a neighbouring hotel restaurant (book early).

small but well designed and comfortable
For a small building, the layout is good and high quality fittings, too. We used it primarily as a touring base. Specific comments: the bed was really comfortable; could do with bigger bath towels; no spare washing up cloths or tea towels. The shower is electric and works well, but when you are used to a power shower . . .

Perfect
The house is small but had everything we needed to make it perfect. The owner has thought of everything to make our stay a home from home and the location was ideal for everywhere we wanted to visit plus there’s a hotel next door that does lovely meals but you have to book in advance because it’s very popular. Really enjoyed our stay.

Quick Lake District visit
Quiet and cozy place a short drive from the Lake District and with easy access to the motorway. Skylight in the bedroom provides just enough light. Kitchenette is nicely outfitted. Nice resturaunt and bar across the lane.
