Tythebarn House B&B

About this property

Tythebarn House is a converted barn with pine beams, log burner and a cosy cottage feeling. With just one room and only two guests, you are sure to feel pampered. It is often said that "Vic and Diana welcome you as a guest, and you leave as a friend." We are also dog friendly by prior arrangement. The perfect stop-over for M6 travellers, 5 minutes from Junction 36 in the quiet village of Holme. A welcoming place from which to explore the Lakes, Dales, Arnside, Kent Estuary, the Cumbrian Coastal Path and Limestone Link.

Your guest accommodation is on the ground floor in a private area, almost like a mini apartment with bedroom, bathroom, hall area and even your own kitchen, equipped with a microwave, chiller and everything needed to prepare a simple meal or snack. With fresh milk, your own cafetiere and teapot, it all makes for a great start to the day. On a warm summer evening our courtyard garden is the perfect place to sit and relax. Alternatively, the local pub is only a short walk away. Guests comment on Diana's attention to detail - the welcoming cup of tea or coffee with home-made cake - and the comfort of your guest room, made-up to your requirements, including fluffy white bath robes. Diana’s mouth-watering stone-baked breakfasts, which include Vegetarian friendly options, are served in our upstairs beamed living room which features a cosy wood burning stove. We use only the best locally sourced ingredients in our delicious breakfasts, served on unique ‘Pampered Chef’ stoneware.

More about staying here

You can now bring your dog along too. We provide separate accommodation in our new dog'otel, which they'll love. It's secure and dry with their own entrance and dog pen. Please enquire for details. Gentle fell walks around Farleton Knott are straight from the B&B door and we’re just off the Cumbria Cycle Way, with secure bike storage available on-site. Take a stroll along the beautiful Lancaster Canal located close by or enjoy fine real ales and hearty evening meals at our local village pub within easy walking distance. We’re a superb option for car free holidays in the Lakes & Dales, with a free pick-up service from Carnforth and Oxenholme railway stations on request. The 555 bus service between Lancaster and Keswick also runs regularly through Holme village.

Special to this property

Diana’s famous Stone-Baked Breakfast is a great start to each day. Local produce abounds along with home-baked bread, jams and cake. Bed without breakfast is an option, but you would be missing out on a treat! Vic is at hand with suggestions for days out and an itinerary to avoid the crowds, the latest weather reports for hill top walkers and Lakes ramblers, or information for those who simply like a stroll along our local canal. Diana, a finalist on TV’s Britain's Best Dish, also offers residential 'Tasting Cumbria' cooking weekends for two. Try your hand at bread making, or sample a ‘Taste of Cumbria’. Her passion for cooking and promoting local foods means that she is regularly seen at Orton Farmer's Market, local country fairs and fund-raising events, inspiring others with her enthusiasm, easy to follow recipes and tips for success in the kitchen.
