Guests that stayed at this property said
Reviewers consistently mention the property being spotlessly clean and well-maintained, indicating a high standard of cleanliness that contributes positively to their overall experience.
The property's location is frequently highlighted as stunning and picturesque, with easy access to local attractions, walks, and the Lake District. The serene setting and views of Morecambe Bay are particularly appreciated.
Comfort is well-regarded with mentions of cosy settings, good quality mattresses, and underfloor heating. However, a few guests found the beds on the firm side, and there were comments about noise from other guests in the building.
Facilities are generally praised for being well-equipped and modern, with special mentions of the kitchen and bathroom. Some guests suggested minor improvements, such as softer beds and additional kitchen items like tea towels.
While many reviews express gratitude for the hospitality and friendliness of the owners, there is insufficient information regarding specific thoughtful gestures or gifts to accurately score this category.
About this property
The Granary Loft, part a former Granary Building, is a stylishly furnished first floor apartment overlooking the idyllic Morecambe Bay, just one mile from the Cumbrian village of Bardsea. There is much to do in the surrounding area, from walking the nearby Birkrigg Common to exploring the ancient market town of Ulverston and the awe-inspiring Lake District National Park. Your homely stay is accessed via a set of external stone steps, which lead to the beautifully decorated open-plan living area. Here you can kick back and relax on the snug sofas whilst watching the TV or simply admiring the stunning views of Morecambe Bay in the distance. The glistening, contemporary kitchen area offers all of the necessary appliances and you can enjoy each mealtime at the wonderful dining table set for four. Resting off of the living area is the delightful monochrome shower room, as well as the two tastefully-decorated bedrooms, finished in a similar fashion to create a tranquil space to get your much-needed rest before a fun-filled day. A superbly-placed apartment offering a warming stay for you and your friends. Note: This property can be booked with Ref. 1125787, together sleeping up to 8 guests.
Looking across to Morecambe Bay is the village of Bardsea. This area grew from a fishing and farming village into a transportation link for coal, iron ore and corn. Bardsea features a pub serving food. It is close to the Furness Abbey, the market town of Ulverston is 2 miles away. With all the attractions of the Lake District National Park, beaches and birdwatching of the Furness coast close by, this area has plenty to offer everybody.

Celie
It was home away from home. The weather wasnât great for hill walks so we opted for cozy days at the Loft cooking, eating and watching TV. The Loft was very clean, good quality mattresses and bedding, excellent kitchen facilities and we loved the shower / room with underfloor heating. The location is fantastic with Birkrigg Common on the doorstep and walks down to the shore via Sea Wood or Baycliff. If you cross Birkrigg and walk down to Bardsea village youâll find the Ship Inn where you can order food. For shops, Barrow and Ulverston are short drives away. I canât wait to come back again in the spring / summer when the days are warmer and longer. I would definitely recommend the Granary Loft others. Thank you so much for an amazing stay.

Really clean and came with some free cats as well, which the kids loved. Lovely position and easy to access Ulveston and Dalton and all the facilities. We had great weather all week which was a bonus.
