Hallin Bank is a 17th century farmhouse set in eleven acres of its own land at the end of a private road. It occupies a stunning position on the south slopes of Hallin Fell, looking down the terraced garden to the stream below, with magnificent views over the secluded valley of Martindale and towards Lake Ullswater. Access from Junction 40 of the M6 at Penrith, 12 miles away.



The same family has occupied Hallin Bank since 1905. In the present generation we keep the original house (whitewashed end) for our own use, but its east wing, ‘The Fold’, is available to rent as an independent cottage. In the pictures The Fold is the L-shaped section of the buildings in grey stone. It is a self-contained barn conversion, full of charm and furnished to a very high standard, providing a luxurious sequence of rooms for up to five visitors.



For a simpler alternative, The Chalet, a one-room timber studio/summerhouse higher up the hillside and with even lovelier views, sleeps two people in a wild and romantic setting.



This is a beautiful place, perfect for a quiet country holiday. The accommodation is suitable either for a family, a group of friends, or a couple who like plenty of space. Wonderful wildlife, including red squirrels, red deer and golden eagles. Splendid walks in all directions.
