A wonderful property commanding the most spectacular views, Bush Nook was built in 1760 as a working farm and was part of an estate held in trust for the Earl of Carlisle. Over the last 50 years, the property has been carefully extended and lovingly restored into the delightful high quality accommodation we see today. Inside, the beamed ceilings and solid wood doors ensure guests feel comfortable and snug and provide a perfect vantage point from which to enjoy the dramatic scenery. On a clear day, guests can see Hadrian s Wall and it interesting to know that the property was originally built using stone from the wall itself. The guest house is located in the small hamlet of Upper Denton, a place of Saxon origin. This quaint hamlet benefits from the peace and hush of its secluded location whilst still enjoying the amenities of nearby town Brampton and Haltwistle approximately 5 miles distant and the city of Carlisle (17 miles) Perhaps the most notable mention of the location of Bush Nook is its proximity to Hadrian's Wall. Arguably Britain s greatest Roman monument, the wall stretches for over 80 miles and forms the basis for many walking and cycling breaks, though some guests are happy to relax and simply revel in the history of the area whilst enjoying the famous northern hospitality. The present owners acquired Bush Nook in 2010. The prior owners had significantly transformed Bush Nook and the new owners have continued this improvement and upgrading. The en suite bedrooms and bathrooms have been significantly upgraded as well as the provision of a new kitchen with Esse oil-fired range. The owners and guest accommodation has been re-configured, redecorated, re-furnished and upgraded as well as acquiring Bush Nook Cottage so that they now own the whole of the site.
