In the small village of Haverthwaite, a mile from the southern end of Lake Windermere, you will find a tranquil hidden gem called The Woodmans Huts. A short walk from the vintage Steam Railway reminicient of years go. Woodmans Shepherds Huts is a glamping site lucky enough to enjoy a quintessentially English setting. Ensconced in their own private woodland enclave and beautiful cottage gardens. The site is made up of just two wooden Shepherds Huts , and a beautiful bespoke Wooden Log Cabin. All insulated with sheep’s wool and furnished inside to a seriously comfortable standard.
Woodman’s Huts are located not only in a beautiful Lake District location, only three miles from Lake Windermere, but we also boast another accolade – “Foodie Heaven “. The renowned 12th century village of Cartmel is just 6 miles from us, where the world famous Cartmel Sticky Toffee Pudding is made. It is also home of the renowned 2-starred Michelin Star restaurant Le’Clume, where the rich and famous fly in by helicopter to enjoy their extravaganza delights.
Cartmel is not only famous for its beauty, a wonderful 12 century Priory, food and location but it boasts another accolade – it’s reputed to be the “Country’s Prettiest Race Course“ where it holds several horse racing meetings throughout the year, a “must do“ for anyone’s bucket list!
Ulverston is our pretty market town, with its cobbled streets, its just a ten minute drive away, where you will find lots of local bespoke individual shops and award winning restaurants, artisan tea rooms, and gin bars. It’s also the birth place of Stan Laurel, so a visit to The Laurel and Hardy Museum should be on your list of 'to do' list during your stay.
And last but certainly not least is the fabulous “Drunken Duck”, just 20 minutes up the road, voted the best “Pub Restaurant 2019”. You will not only be served the most amazing food, but it has its own micro brewery producing some seriously good beers. The views from its front door are jaw dropping, and add to its perfection.
Our little piece of heaven offers you everything you would want. You will experience staying in our lovely bespoke hand built Huts and Log Cabin, where you will enjoy glamping at its very best. Crisp white sheets, fluffy towels, underfloor heating and open fire, what’s not to like?
