Hallin Bank, Martindale ~ A romantic holiday cottage near Ullswater, The Lake District
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 beck below, with magnificent views over the secluded valley of Martindale and towards Lake Ullswater.
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, known as The Fold, is available to rent as an independent cottage. In the pictures The Fold is the left-hand 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. The Chalet, a one room timber studio/summerhouse, can be rented as an annexe to The Fold and will accommodate a further two people.
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. There is wonderful wildlife and splendid walking in all directions.
