    Very comfortable cottages. Well stocked kitchen supplies. Nice parking space for a van. Beautiful area. Pub down the street was a nice surprise.

    The cottages were lovely and very comfortable. Very well equipped, comfy beds and washer/drier available as well as a dishwasher. The lodge was brilliant with plenty of space for 15 of us, with a large dining room table and plates and cutlery...

    We loved the size of both cottages and being next door meant we were able to pop in/out as necessary to remain as a group. The location to shops etc was good but it would be helpful to know what's in the area ahead of time for supplies ie large...

    The property is a 5 minute drive from the centre of Kendal. It is a 25 minute drive from both Windermere and Morecambe. So a great location. The hosts (Angela and Clive) couldn't do more to make our stay any better.

    We were 3 adults and 7 children. Accommodation was excellent for all, (I particularly liked the book case and books, so did some of the children). Despite the weather on the Friday and Sunday (well it is the lakes) there was plenty for us to do,...

    The set up and layout of both properties was excellent, with great utensils and appliances provided, and plenty of parking and room for all 13 of us. Enjoyed having the separate building where we could enjoy our evenings, therefore not disturbing...

Property info

There are 3 properties that comprise Helm Mount Barns, a full restoration project that was completed in June 2015. We have tried to keep the character of the old barns and have left exposed beams as a feature in most rooms. All properties have modern kitchens and they all have wood-burning stoves in the lounge areas. The Lodge is a real bonus when both Spring and Autumn Cottages are booked together as this provides a large communal area to all gather together.

Neighborhood info

Barrows Green comprises of a dozen properties and a pub! It is a perfect base whether you are visiting the Lake District and/or Yorkshire Dales. We are 5 minutes from Kendal and yet feel as if we are in the middle of the countryside.
