Accomodation:
Harry's Barn is strictly None Smoking
Set in a quiet lane in the quiet village of Maulds Meaburn, Harry's Barn was tastefully converted in 2001 from a 200yr old Cumbrian field house into a charming detached barn conversion.
With exposed stone walls and oak floors, low beams and ceilings it retains its old country style.
Harry's Barn provides luxury accommodation and has been accredited with 4 stars by Visit Britain.
There is an open plan living area on the first floor with a beech kitchen and dining area, comfy sofas and a wood burning stove.
The home from home comforts include an LCD TV, DVD Player, Video Player, and a Radio / CD player.
There is a fridge with small ice box, Full electric cooker, microwave, maps and books as well as everything else that you would expect from such a comfortable holiday cottage.
There are very low beams in the open plan living area and also some low ceilings in the building, so in parts you will have to duck, which all adds to the charm of this unique building.
The main bedroom contains a king size bed , wardrobe and traditional furnishings.
The occasional bunkroom houses a 2ft 6in bunk bed - suitable only for children (aged 5 - 15. because of limited headroom on the top bunk)
We have no provision for toddlers (due to safety reasons)
The bathroom contains a small bath and overhead shower, plus the usual facilities.
There is also a washer/dryer.
All bedding, towels and teatowels are included at no extra cost, as is the fuel for the wood burning stove and electricity.
Harry's Barn also has a large garden and ample parking for your car.
The garden is relatively "dog proof" - depending on your dog!.
MOBILE PHONE RECEPTION
The mobile phone signal within the village is poor, although we do find that O2 works within some parts of the Barn itself, and also by the gate.
The signal can be intermittent, and of course, it would depend a lot on your phone.
We have tried other phones with other networks and they will not work.
The signal however is restored on all networks as soon as you leave the village.
There is a public phone in the village for use for emergencies which is situated near to the bus shelter and village hall.
We do not have WiFi withn the Barn.
