Whitbarrow Village sits on the edge of the Lake District National Park, perfectly positioned for exploring the North Lakes, Ullswater and the Eden Valley.
Penrith is approximately 10 miles away and provides excellent transport links via the West Coast Main Line, offering direct services to London, Glasgow and Edinburgh. The M6 motorway is also easily accessible, making the property surprisingly well connected for such a peaceful rural setting.
The surrounding area is a playground for outdoor enthusiasts. Ullswater — often described as the most beautiful of the Lake District lakes — is within easy reach, offering lake cruises, paddleboarding, kayaking and scenic shoreline walks. The nearby fells provide endless hiking routes, while cyclists and runners are equally well catered for.
For those drawn to heritage and culture, the area is rich in history, from Penrith Castle to the ancient stone circles of Castlerigg. Local farm shops, country pubs and highly regarded restaurants are scattered throughout the surrounding villages, creating a lifestyle that balances adventure with excellent food and relaxed evenings.
Despite its tranquil setting, Whitbarrow Village offers a rare combination of countryside immersion and on-site amenities — making The Sanctuary a compelling choice for those seeking both escape and convenience.
