The Dairy | Brackenthwaite | Romantic Studio with Lakeland Views
Romantic Studio Retreat | Glass-Topped Interior Well | Stunning Lakeland Views
The Dairy is the jewel in the crown for couples and solo travellers to Brackenthwaite Farm. This beautifully designed studio apartment oozes character, but the real “showstopper” is the almost full-wall windows that frame a magnificent outlook towards the Old Man of Coniston in the Lake District. It is a space designed for slow mornings and atmospheric evenings, featuring a unique glass-covered water well set into the floor that lights up at night, casting shimmering patterns across the high ceilings. 🥂🏔️✨
🐶 Why Pack Members Love The Dairy:
- Front Row to the Orchard: The Dairy directly overlooks The Orchard, our 2.5-acre fully enclosed exercise area. You are just steps away from “zoomie” heaven! 🍏🐕
- Toasty Toes & Paws: The bathroom features underfloor heating, and the main living area is anchored by a crackling wood-burning stove—perfect for a post-walk snooze. 🐾🔥
- Hyperfast Tech: With hyperfast broadband, a 50-inch Smart TV, soundbar, and Netflix included, it’s the ultimate spot for a cosy “cinema night“ with your dog.
- The “Pack“ Welcome: Just like The Coach House, Corner Cottage and The Old Farmhouse, your dog will receive their own welcome pack with fresh towels, treats, toys, and a Brackenthwaite dog tag.
- Luxury for Humans: A luxuriously comfortable Super-King mezzanine bed and a high-spec bathroom for a proper soak after a day on the fells.

Reactive Dog Guide
The Dairy offers a very peaceful retreat, but its layout has specific features for reactive dog owners to note:Visual Triggers: The spectacular wall-to-wall windows offer incredible views, but they also mean your dog may see movement in The Orchard and the people / other animals passing by. There are blinds that can be closedShared Setting: Located next to The Old Farmhouse, you will occasionally see other guests, or Matthew or Harry moving through the courtyard and communal areas.The Orchard: While you overlook this wonderful 2.5-acre secure space, please remember it is shared with the other three cottages on the farm plus the residents and their dogs.The Water Well: The illuminated indoor well is a beautiful feature, but the sound of moving water beneath the glass might be a new sensory experience for a particularly nervous pup!There is living accommodation above (bedrooms / bathroom) therefore there may be other sounds of movement heard (though it is sound proofed) The outside space is shared. Please have your dog on a lead until you can let them off safely in The Orchard
