Facilities at our 5 star holiday cottages
And when we say 5 star holiday cottages, we’re not exaggerating.
We’ve equipped each of the six cottages with every conceivable luxury to make your holiday relaxing and stress free.
We’ve taken care of the big details – maintaining the character of the original buildings, carefully walling and landscaping outdoor spaces for privacy, creating an en suite or companion bathroom for every bedroom, styling the kitchens for luxury and practicality, and placing central heating, underfloor heating and a wood-burning stove in every cottage.
And we’ve also taken care of the small details – leaving a basket of flip flops and blankets by the door to help you enjoy the outdoor spaces, adding finishing touches such as crystal handles on kitchen cupboard doors, and welcoming you with a basket of local goodies so that our cottages feel like home from the moment you arrive.
A good night’s sleep
A good night’s sleep is easy to come by at The Courtyard Cottages, Bigland Hall. Each cottage features beautifully designed bedrooms, many with original wooden beams, unique window shapes, and high vaulted ceilings. The larger windows in the double bedrooms offer phenomenal views that can be enjoyed without even getting out of bed.
Many of our bedrooms include en-suite facilities, and where it would make the bedroom space too cramped, we have placed companion bathrooms just across the hall.
Private relaxation
Each cottage has its own private, walled terrace with stylish furniture and a barbecue, ideal for cooking and enjoying a good selection of local meats – we highly recommend Higginson’s butchers in Grange over Sands.
Best of all, every patio features an outdoor hot tub, so you can soak up the amazing scenery in style.
