Our Facilities
Especially created for guests looking for a relaxing holiday but also for those wanting a little more activity.
Our facilities at Poltarrow Farm have been created with a variety of tastes in mind; we know that some of our guests choose to stay with us so they can relax in the countryside, quietly soaking in the wildlife and fresh air. Families come here to get outdoors and also to have lots of fun with the children — our facilities offer the best of both worlds.
The facilities are for the enjoyment of guests staying at Poltarrow and are situated a few minutes’ walk from the cottages, just far enough away to preserve the tranquility of your holiday home.
