The house was built in C1770 and belonged to the Wordsworth family, being the home for a while to the famous William Wordsworth as a young man. The house has twelve bedrooms, ten of which are en-suite (there is a no smoking policy in the bedrooms) one lounge including a 55" T.V. There is also a Sauna and Hot Tub and swimming pool for the guests' enjoyment and relaxation - particularly handy after those days on the fells or after a cycle ride. There is an outside sundeck to the rear of the house and also a large off street car park.
