Set in the peaceful and picturesque surroundings of Coniston, Hollin Bank Barn offers a tranquil escape right in the heart of the Lake District. This beautiful three-bedroom detached cottage enjoys an elevated position, close to the popular Village of Coniston but only one mile away from the picturesque Tarn Hows. The cosy lounge offers a wood burning stove for those cooler evenings. An open plan kitchen/dining room has a door that opens onto this wonderful south facing garden.

The cottage has stunning views from the rear windows of the lounge and the garden across Coniston Water towards Coniston Old Man — a truly special backdrop for your morning coffee or evening glass of wine. There is a wonderful, enclosed garden at the rear and a wooded area to the side of the house, making this a lovely setting.
Walking opportunities are abundant — whether you’re tackling the summit of the Old Man of Coniston, exploring the scenic Tarn Hows, or enjoying gentler lakeside strolls along Coniston Water’s western shores. There are trails for every level, each offering stunning views and peaceful woodland settings. Mountain biking trails located in Grizedale Forest are only one mile away. For those who love life on the water, Coniston Water (also 1 mile away) is perfect for kayaking, paddleboarding, or hiring a rowing boat from Coniston Boating Centre.
The village of Coniston itself is full of character, with welcoming pubs, local shops, tearooms, and art galleries. Visit the Ruskin Museum to learn about the area’s rich history, from slate mining to the daring water speed record attempts of Donald Campbell. A short drive brings you to Grizedale Forest, home to sculpture trails, family cycling routes, and the thrilling Go Ape treetop adventure. Meanwhile, the stunning Langdale Valley, Ambleside, and Hawkshead are all within easy reach for more exploration. Whether you’re after peaceful nature, adrenaline-filled activities, or a base to explore the wider South Lakes, Hollin Bank Barn in Coniston offers the perfect location to unwind and reconnect with the beauty of The Lakes.
