The Lakehouse - Laythams Holiday Lets Retreat

Off grid, lovingly restored barn conversion, set in 3 acres, with its own private lake & woodland. The Lakehouse is perfect for forest bathing and watching the multitude of wildlife that visits and lives here. Powered by the wind and sun, with water alkalised and filtered from our own spring on Burn Fell, this really is a place to reconnect with nature and those around you.

The ground floor in an open plan space with underfloor heating. The lounge is a combination of comfy sofas, leather reading chairs by the fire, and armchairs plus a giant pouffe facing the lake view window. The wood burner is a great centre piece for the beautiful exposed brick wall which has tiny windows, which frame the light, and are ever changing with the weather.

Full TV package is available which you can watch cinema style, with surround sound. We have a bluetooth connection, and speakers throughout the property so you can listen to all your favourite tunes wherever you like with the same incredible sound quality.

The professional kitchen includes, a large double fridge/freezer with ice and chilled water function, combi microwave/oven/steam oven, dual temperature wine fridge, induction hob, ESSE range cooker, dishwasher and instant boiling water tap. Our cupboards are full with all you’ll need to make use of this incredible space, from baking a cake to a more formal dinner party.

As you step out of the kitchen door, you are immediately in the outside dining area, making eating and socialising on a sunny day seamless. There’s a barbeque and luxury dining table and chairs, making this space an extension of the kitchen. The hot tub is also here with an outside shower to rinse off before you take a dip!

The sauna and wet room, which includes, rain, hand held and cold plunge shower is on the ground floor. We have a bedroom with a kingsize and single bed on this level, which is ideal for families, or customers who may need a carer on hand during the night.
The Farmhouse and Cottage offer the perfect retreat within the charm of a 16th century Pennine longhouse. They have interconnecting doors, so each property can be used independently or together for larger groups. Both properties are pet friendly.

The Farmhouse and Cottage benefit from gorgeous panoramic views, which you can enjoy from one of the several seating areas in the spacious yard, as well as preparing delicious holiday barbecues.

Laythams Farmhouse and Cottage is ideally situated if you’re looking to escape from the stresses of everyday life and retreat into the countryside. Even on incredibly busy days, we’re lucky enough to only have about a dozen vehicles passing the gates of the farm. Despite this, there are plenty of amenities within a short walking distance and an abundance of nearby activities to try during your holiday.

For a romantic break away look no further than our gorgeous Hayloft. You’ll be charmed immediately by the Hayloft’s splendid views of the beautiful Forest of Bowland, wood burner and luxurious ensuite bathroom. Intimate meals may be enjoyed outside at the private terrace, inside overlooking the glorious scenery, or nearby at one of the many excellent local country pubs and restaurants. Privacy, peace, luxury, relaxation, enhanced by great facilities, make this a perfect haven for any couple. Please be aware that we accept pets at the Hayloft on request.

The Lakehouse is the ideal discreet getaway for couples, families and groups of friends. Set over 3 acres with its own private woodland and lake, it’s easily accessible, yet off the beaten track. The perfect place to reconnect without giving up any of life’s luxuries. The Lakehouse is also the ideal venue for small scale executive think tank weekends and business meeting space.
