This recently renovated, listed barn is set just off a square in the historic market town of Broughton in Furness in the South Lakes. From here, you can set off on scenic walks, including routes along the Broughton Railway Path, or through the peaceful Duddon Mosses Nature Reserve. For those who enjoy coastal scenery, the Duddon Estuary offers invigorating walks along its sandy and pebbled shores, with breathtaking views at Haverigg Beach and Millom Beach, both within 9 miles. History buffs can explore the remnants of Furness Abbey and the Dock Museum in Barrow-in-Furness, 15 miles away. If you prefer water-based activities, Coniston Water, just 8 miles from Broughton, offers cruises, including the steam yacht Gondola, or maybe rent rowing boats, sailing dinghies, canoes, paddle boards and kayaks from Coniston Pier. Coniston is also home to the The Ruskin Museum and the Bluebird and Ruskin's historic home, Brantwood is on the shores of Coniston Water. The area boasts lots of walking trails, from gentle lakeside paths to the more demanding ascent of the Old Man of Coniston – an exhilarating challenge for keen hikers!Upon entering this delightful, contemporary barn conversion, a former stables and artist's studio, you are welcomed into the spacious hallway, with access to the cloakroom, the lounge, lower ground floor and upstairs spaces.
