GARTH HOUSE CASTLE, COTTAGES & STUDIO AND SURROUNDING AREAS OF OUTSTANDING BEAUTY
Nine miles south of Carlisle and two miles from the beautiful market town of Brampton, Talkin Tarn is the perfect respite from today’s busy society. Whether you plan a relaxing walk among some of the UK’s most spectacular scenery or want a slightly more adventurous trip with fishing, canoeing and other water sports, Talkin Tarn is a small slice of peaceful paradise.
Perfectly situated just outside of Brampton, which itself is only two miles from the historic Hadrian’s Wall, Garth House Cottage & Studio and owners Dawn and Gordon McGregor, are here to extend a warm welcome and invite you to enjoy an unforgettable stay in Cumbria.
As you arrive at Garth House Cottage & Studio the spectacular Lake District National Park serves as backdrop to this exceptional and exquisitely maintained 1830’s Grade II listed building.
Whether you’re looking for a romantic getaway or wanting to spend time catching up with friends, Garth House Cottage & Studio has something to offer. Up to six people can be accommodated in its stylish and contemporary luxury cottage, while the elegantly decorated studio offers two persons a more intimate getaway.
Both the cottage and the studio come with all the latest high-tech conveniences, plush linen and towels, and complimentary Wi-Fi.
The cottage also has access to the courtyard and surrounding gardens. Here, up to eight people can enjoy the use of the BBQ and patio dining area and make the most of the lengthening evenings. Between the 1st of April and the 30th of September, you can also use the heated swimming pool.
Best of all though, both the cottage and the studio have their own hot tub, where you can completely unwind and forget about the rest of the world.
Holidaying in Cumbria has become increasingly popular in recent years and few destinations are better suited to the role of providing rest, relaxation, and rejuvenation than this exceptional getaway. You can enjoy a walk along the 1.3 mile accessible path circling Talkin Tarn, enjoy a coffee at the site’s cosy Tea Room, and with Hadrian’s Wall just a few miles away, plus a wealth of medieval buildings to explore around Brampton, there really is something for everyone to enjoy.
At Garth House Cottage & Studio, we want your break to feel like a home away from home and we go above and beyond to provide a warm and memorable experience. Dawn and Gordon will be delighted to recommend the finest locations to explore, as well as suggest some of the best local pubs, and restaurants to dine at.
