It’s a great space to sit with family or friends and talk about the day’s events.
With Black Combe Hill being the main focal point of Kirkby in Furness, the village is quiet and peaceful. The area is great for families with small children, for birdwatchers, walkers, and cyclists. A range of abilities are catered for. A circular walk from your front door takes in an array of farmyard animals. Drop down to Foxfield to experience a panoramic view of the spectacular hill range. Take a seat at Wallend, just a stone’s throw from the cottage, where the details of the fells and crags are immortalised in bronze and the sun sets every night.

Take a drive up over Kirby moor to the picturesque historic market town of Ulverston, with its quaint shops, cafés, and upmarket grocery stores.
Barrow-in-Furness, a short drive away, is home to shops, a cinema, Furness-Abbey (English Heritage) and The Dock Museum which may be more to your taste if you like ships.
