About Little Byre

Little Byre is a charming holiday cottage that affords wonderful uninterrupted views over glorious countryside towards Skiddaw. Located in the quiet hamlet of Baggrow in Cumbria, Little Byre is perfect for those seeking peace and tranquillity, whilst being within easy reach of popular tourist areas such as Keswick. A superb choice for discovering the many delights of both the Lake District and the Cumbrian coastline.

After a day enjoying the seaside, walking the fells, or visiting the many attractions of the Lake District, return 'home' to a peaceful retreat where you can escape the crowds and recharge. In the winter months you can curl up in front of the cosy living flame fire and in the summer enjoy a 'sun-downer' enjoying the spectacular view.
