The Nook is a delightful annexe tucked away in the quiet countryside of Newton Arlosh near Kirkbride, offering a stay that feels refreshingly close to nature.
Ideal for friends or family craving a slower pace, this single-storey hideaway combines comfort with a wonderfully rural setting, where open skies, peaceful surroundings and friendly animals are all part of the experience.
Designed to make the most of its space, the open-plan living area is both practical and welcoming.
The kitchen is neatly arranged with everything you need for easy holiday meals, including an electric oven and hob, an air fryer and a handy breakfast bar for leisurely starts to the day.
After exploring the surrounding countryside, the sitting area invites you to put your feet up on the sofa, catch up on a favourite programme on the Smart TV, or simply enjoy the calm of your surroundings.
The bedroom is light and restful with good storage, while the en-suite bathroom, fitted with a shower, basin and WC, completes the accommodation.
Off-road parking is available in the owner’s driveway for added ease.
One of The Nook’s most memorable features is the chance to connect with the animals that call the grounds home.
By arrangement, guests can meet the resident alpacas, emus, chickens and friendly dogs, a real treat for animal lovers and a joy for children and adults alike.
These encounters add a unique and heart-warming touch to your stay, making it feel truly special and far removed from everyday life.
Beyond the property, Cumbria opens up with a wealth of places to explore.

Whether you’re watching alpacas graze, exploring classic Cumbrian scenery or simply enjoying the peace, The Nook offers a charming countryside escape with a personality all its own.
