3 Bedroom House in Kirkby-in-Furness

A peaceful relaxing getaway, Halsteads sits in the friendly village of Kirkby-in-Furness. With a world class view to the rear of the property, it makes the perfect base for a family/ mixed generational holiday or an outdoors activity vacation. Easy to get to (even in Winter), it is close to the festival town of Ulverton and within a 20 minute journey to Coniston. Slightly further afield, but easy to reach by car, are the Central Lakes (Windemere, Bowness, Ambleside, Grasmere and Rydal). Alternatively you can take the train up the fabulous West Coast. Recommended rail destinations are: Ravenglass and L'aal Ratty; Maryport with its Aquarium and Roman Museum and Whitehaven with the Rum Museum. There are several nice walks in between stations for a hop on, hop off type of day.
There are three bedrooms - one king size, one double and one twin.
There is a family bathroom with bath, washbasin, toilet and large shower. In addition there is a separate cloakroom toilet/basin.
The kitchen is a large, country style fully equipped with all appliances, utensils and cookware.
There are two lounges - the largest, with wood burning stove, at the front of the property. The smaller day lounge at the rear with views of the fells.
From the house there are spectacular views over Kirby Pool, the Duddon Estuary and Mosses and on a very clear day to the Isle of Man. Over thirty tops are visible including Coniston Old Man, Stickle Pike, Black Coombe and Scafell. It has a pastoral setting with sheep in the meadows behind.
Village amenities include two pubs (both serving food), Pam's Cafe, a railway station and village shop essentials are available at Longlands caravan park, sports facilities and a children’s play park, churches and health centre. It is an excellent area for walking, cycling and wildlife as well as sightseeing and historical interest; the Cumbria Coastal path runs five minutes from the door. Banks and more extensive shopping and leisure facilities can be found in Ulverston or Barrow-in-Furness. Halsteads lies within the Tesco and Asda home delivery areas for the convenience of internet shopping ordered from home to be delivered on your arrival.
Halsteads is particularly suitable for families or mixed age parties with elderly relatives or friends.
Security: There is a security camera located above the garage door which monitors the driveway and the steps to the house. We turn this off when the house is rented.
In the hallway the Nest thermostat incorporates a motion detector - this helps control the heating when it detects people in the property.

Summary: We couldn't have ask for more , a really special home from home experience. Thank you to Mike & Helen
Joan R. Aug 8, 2021 08:06:47 PM
Summary: Near railway, so we used this 2 days for travel. Various attractions nearby. Lovely views from property. Well equipped kitchen. A smell of damp on entering after being outsude. Lovely walks along estuary fir evening stroll.
Jemma T. Sep 23, 2020 06:23:07 AM
Summary: We stayed in this property during the first week of Sep 2020. The overwhelming memory from our break was sadly, the very dusty and dated property. The old carpets and similarly old furniture caused my husband to have an asthma flare up due to dust. There is a very distinct fusty smell In the house, the damp hits you every time you enter. Clothes that had been stored in the master bedroom required washing on our return home due to the smell. As previous reviews highlight, the property is very well equipped and it does have a wonderful view but unfortunately those points alone don’t make for a pleasant holiday rental, when the property really is in need of some modernisation and attention.

Summary: Had a great week at Halsteads. This is the most organised and well equipped house I’ve stayed at and the communication and helpful tips from the owners were great. The view is amazing, can see for miles across the estuary and over to the hills. Would definitely stay here again!
Jo E. Jul 31, 2020 12:11:52 AM
Summary: Spacious cottage located in a quiet village. Easy access to the Lakes. Loved our stay. Big thanks to the homeowners Mike & Helen. Would definitely return.
Faiq A. Aug 15, 2019 10:29:23 AM
Summary: It's the second time. We found the cottage as before organised and enjoyable.
Vincent H. Aug 5, 2019 05:34:34 PM
Summary: This property is amazing from the moment you park up on the generous drive amongst the beautiful trees, shrubs and flowers. It is very spacious throughout with no compromise needed in any part of the property. A very large kitchen and breakfast table. Amazing views from there and everything you could need from a kitchen. Train station is only two minutes walk away - the trains are not an intrusion at all in my book as they show a little bit of daily life going on amidst the ultra tranquility otherwise surrounding the place. Loads of thoughtful extras throughout the property - games, books, maps, dvds, extra pillows and bedding, extra garden seating and instructions wherever needed. Large BBQ available but we had rain and didn’t get to play with it - great elevated location for this. Secret garden at the front is beautiful. View from main bedroom over the garden is lovely to wake up to. A really charming place in a great location. The Ship Inn (one minute walk) is closed Mon and Tue but we received a very warm welcome on Weds and had a great free game or two of pool. Nearby towns offer all shopping and takeaway options. Tesco delivery worked a treat and made for an even easier stay. Overall a wonderful experience enjoyed by us all - 15yr old said “I love it here I’d come back every year”. Thanks to Mike and Helen for great communication throughout.

Summary: My Children and I travel the UK and stay in all sorts of places. Halsteads is a little out of the way but we love that. The views are awesome and light pollution at night time is minimal too. It is such a peaceful property and we can only recommend it highly
Justin S. Jul 21, 2019 04:51:38 AM
Summary: Very pleased, good value, lovely spot in the South Lakes.
Simon G. Jul 12, 2019 05:36:53 PM
Summary: The first impression on arrival is of the location with the stunning views up to the peaks of the Southern Lakes and across the estuary of Duddon Bay... The bungalow is comfortable and very will equipped with a great pub (The Ship Inn) just a minute's walk away down the hill, although the return journey may be a tad longer... Would definitely return!
