If you love birds then a visit to Tarnside is a must, we have Woodpeckers,Nut Hatch ,Gold Finch , Siskin and lots more. The log fire can be used all year round for those chilly nights.

We accept dogs as long as they under good control you can take them into the fields for a run. We train racehorses on the farm, so come and see them trained by Maurice who rode Rubstic to victory in the 1979 Grand National. Enjoy Golf at Brampton Golf Course, 5mins from Tarnside.

Relaxing stay in beautiful location

Nice spacious property with everything we needed for our stay. Just as described on the website. The woodpeckers came to eat several times a day right outside the large windows and bunnies played in the long grass. It was also a delight to see the beautiful horses in the stables and fields all around. Very friendly owners.

Impressed

First time away with our dog and could not have picked a better place. Anne(owner/host) very welcoming and cannot do enough for you. Plenty of logs for the fire, bottle of wine, fresh eggs, caramel shortcake what a welcome package, don’t think you would get this type of welcome from many places. The lodge was lovely, all the amenities you could need and more, plenty of fresh towels and bedding, the view from the living room was amazing. I found the whole place and surroundings so peaceful even though you are staying beside over 20 racehorses, dogs and chickens. It wasn’t even a problem if you wanted to visit the horses and the staff were very friendly. Great place, I would definitely go back.

Excellent little cottage

We were welcomed by the owners, who are very friendly. After showing us into our cottage we were left alone to enjoy our stay. There was a lovely welcome gift of wine, milk and doughnuts. We were very lucky with weather and enjoyed walking around the tarn and sitting on the patio sipping a gin. It was interesting staying 9n a horse racing stables and we were welcome to visit the horses.

Lovely relaxing break

If you enjoy the country life you will love this place. Horses, sheep, chickens and very friendly dogs who love a bit of attention! I was surprised at how quiet it was with all the animals. You do hear the odd farm vehicle but it is a farm and stables after all. The owners were very friendly and welcoming, with some really nice touches waiting for you on arrival. My hubby loved doing the fire each evening. I loved the view down to the tarn and watching the birds coming in to roost each evening. It’s a great base to explore the upper lakes, Cumbria, Northumberland and the border towns of Scotland. I would recommend this to anyone who likes nature, history or just chilling.

Lovely cottage, peaceful location

Had a lovely 5 night stay at the cottage, our girls loved the horses, they went and saw them and gave them lots of attention and petted them, Ann and Maurice were great hosts, they had two lovely dogs jasper and lucky who came to see us most mornings along with watching the horses outside of the cottage window. There was a lovely lot of hens who kept up amused just outside, it’s a great place to stay, we chose this cottage as our girls love horses and this was the perfect stay for them. The cottage was a fab place to stay, loved it’s peaceful location, the log burner was a bonus, very comfy and lots of extras and so home from home. Will definitely come back again and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thanks Ann and Maurice.

Wow! What a fab place to stay! Anne was brilliant, met us and showed us to our lodge (no 2), she had kindly left a bottle of wine and a cake for us as well as fresh flowers - much appreciated! The lodge is very spacious with full length windows to enjoy the fantastic view of the tarn. So peaceful with lots of wildlife to see. The guys in the stables next door were brilliant, they allowed us to pet the horses and even let my daughter sit on one of them, she was made up!

We stayed at Tarnside farm for 5 nights. We had such a lovely holiday I even asked if we could stay longer! The cottage was immaculate and had everything we needed. My little boy loved playing in the sandpit and the little playground they have. There is lots of open space to roam. Anne the owner is very friendly and welcoming we could feed the chickens and even got to meet the horses. It’s a perfect location and we will be booking to stay again. I highly recommend staying here

The perfect break

Really close to the Hadrian’s Wall, we stayed at the cottage which offered us a relaxing stay with the family in the countryside. Really easy to find on our arrival. Horses lovers, rumblers and people looking for historic heritage will love it. Just a short distance from the Tarn Lake with a wonderful walk. Anne was really kind to us.
