Graythwaite, located in the picturesque region of Cumbria in the North of England, offers a charming retreat for couples seeking a romantic getaway. Set within a vast 5000-acre private country estate, the area is characterized by its stunning landscapes of lakes, forests, woodlands, and meadows. The accommodation consists of a beautifully refurbished Victorian barn conversion, dating back to 1890, which retains much of its original charm while incorporating modern comforts.

The cozy living space is designed to accommodate two guests, featuring an open-plan layout that includes a charming woodburner set in a slate surround, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploration.
