Enjoy the tranquility of the northern edge of the Lake District by staying at the Cumberland Bird of Prey Centre in this unique container conversion. With private picnic areas, fire pits and places to while away the evening.
Perfect for Hadrians Wall Walk discovering the Lake District, the Solway Basin and for verging into the Galloway Forest. Only minutes from Gretna Green.
We also have an additional property on site if you are booking for a large group. Just give us a shout about this.
Live in the Nrth Lakes with my husband Gary and spaniel Layla. When we are not working we like getting up the hills and out on our bikes and love a bit of trvelling.
