Description

This is a unique opportunity to acquire an extremely well positioned, freehold property, formerly a youth hostel & before that a country house, set in a total of approximately 15 acres, in a fantastic setting overlooking Derwentwater lake in the heart of the Lake District National Park.

Our clients bought the property several years back and have since worked with the youth hostel to provide accommodation for up to 88 people at a time. The property comes with three wooden lodges, one of Cumbria's largest private waterfalls in the rear gardens and is within a few steps of the lake. The location is surrounded by picturesque hills & mountains, and we feel, with the right
investment, would be a fantastic hotel offering.

Barrow House sits right at the heart the Lake District National Park, now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, covering 885 square miles of mountains and lakes. The property, also known as Derwentwater Independent Hostel, is situated on the B5289 in Borrowdale, Cumbria, in the Northwest of England. The property sits just a 5-minute drive to Keswick centre and overlooks Derwentwater lake, while being approximately half an hour's drive from the M6 & A66, which provide access in all directions.
