Deepdale Hall is a grade II listed 17th century farmhouse situated on a working Lakeland hill farm in the scenic valley of Deepdale, between Lake Ullswater and Brotherswater. Here you will find stunning mountain views, oak beams, log fires and breakfasts cooked on the Aga - and, of course, genuine Cumbrian hospitality. We offer traditional Cumbrian bed and breakfast, and also have a self catering cottage unit.
The house was built around 1670 and was part of the Duke of Norfolk's Estate. The lounge of Deepdale Hall Cottage was used for the Court of the Lord of the Manor under the supervision of his steward. Deepdale Hall retains its Manorial Rights to this day.
Deepdale Hall runs a traditional fell sheep flock of 600 hill ewes of which 90 are Herdwicks and the rest Swaledales.
A barn, formerly used for keeping cattle on the ground floor, with hay stored on the first floor known as a hay loft. The Byre has been converted to a very high standard with oak wood used throughout, retaining the original beams.
There is solid oak flooring with scatter rugs, apart from bedrooms which have pure Herdwick wool fitted carpets made locally in Kendal.
The Byre
The Byre has 2 bedrooms on the ground floor along with a bathroom which has a bath with shower over.
The first floor is open plan with kitchen at one end, dining area in the middle and lounge area with TV, wood burning stove and two leather sofas at the end with the large opening which was the barn doors. There is also a shower room with toilet and basin on the first floor.
The Kitchen has dish washer, washing machine, microwave, fridge freezer, double electric oven and separate electric hob.
The whole place is very comfortable and kept warm with oil fired central heating. Water is heated by combi boiler. All windows and doors are double glazed and the walls and roof have been insulated for really cosy comfort even in the middle of Winter.
The views are phenomenal looking up Deepdale towards Fairfield, onto Aiken Crag at the back and across to Place Fell at the front.
Bed linen and logs for the fire are provided.
Lettings are from Friday to Friday in the Byre.
