Overlooking the quiet, unspoilt Howgill Mountains Fawcett Mill is situated only 2 miles from the M6 motorway and is hidden in its own tranquil valley, with a stream running from an adjacent waterfall through 7 acres of meadowland. Built in 1794 as the mill owner's house it is furnished in comfortable country style, with oak beams and open hearths throughout. It is equipped to a very high standard with full gas central heating and fitted carpets. Fawcett Mill is available with 3 double bedrooms, 4 twin bedrooms (1 with an additional double bunkbed) and a double futon and double settee bed in the lounge (+cots).
Fawcett Mill has a dining/living room with Victorian range. There is a double futon sofa bed and double settee sofa bed in the upper lounge, which also has TV, video and radio. There are 2 kitchens (one with a Rayburn cooker), a bathroom and a shower room, and there is access through the kitchen to the terraces and barbecue area.
The ground floor lounge has TV, video, radio and log fire; shower room, kitchen, and sauna. The front door through the porch leads onto the terraces overlooking the stream. Outside, as well as barbecue areas, there are extensive terraces and patios bordering the stream.
Fawcett Mill is an idyllic gathering place for a large family or group of friends. It is perfect for reunions, get togethers, Christmas/New Year/Easter celebrations, or a relaxing break away from it all. Summer or winter the environment and scenery is stunning.
