Ashlack is a working farm and in April and May the fields are littered with lambs and calves and also a few foals. It is a perfect place for children to explore the woods, rivers, meadowland and the coast. (see also Local Areas). Equally, a perfect place for a really peaceful 'get-away-from-it-all' holiday.

The main house, Ashlack Hall, from where the estate is run, has a very large vegetable garden which provides organic produce throughout the summer months. We will provide you with delicious new potatoes, lettuce, spinach, tomatoes and raspberries, for example. The history of the Hall is equally fascinating and we sell a comprehensive history of the house from 1688 to the present day!

All our Lake District holiday cottages have been recently renovated and are inspected annually by the English Tourist Board. They are all graded 4 star. We are also a member of CALSCA.

Facilities

All our holiday cottages come fully equipped and have: full central heating, dishwasher, electric fan-assisted oven, microwave, fridge, freezer, washing machine and dryer. Also included in the rental price are bed linen, towels, heating and electricity. Each holiday cottage has a private garden, plenty of car parking and a barbecue.

Wi-fi internet connection is available in Beckstones Cottage.  Guests in the other cottages may bring their laptops into the office during office hours to retrieve emails.

When you arrive at your cottage the beds are already made, the fires are laid and the heating is already on, so the house will be cosy and there will be plenty of hot water.
