1 / 24The Stables - Heversham
Heversham, Cumbria
A one bedroom conversion for two at Heversham with the lounge upstairs, a deep bath and walk in shower, and a small enclosed patio garden, two dogs welcome.
One bedroom, one bathroom, and the bathroom is arguably the better room: a deep bath, a walk in shower, a heated floor underfoot. The Stables is a conversion for two at Heversham in south Cumbria, dog friendly with a pair of dogs allowed, and it holds on to a small enclosed garden and patio with a table and two chairs on it. No children stay here, which is part of the quiet.
It is built the other way up from most cottages. Downstairs is the kitchen and a bistro table with a WC off it, and stairs climb to the lounge, which has windows on three sides, a beamed ceiling and a log stove under it. The king bedroom crosses the landing with a dressing room attached. The rug in front of that stove goes to the dogs, who will consider the arrangement settled.
Couples who want somewhere small done properly, rather than somewhere large done adequately, are the audience. There is one allocated space at the back for the car and a lockable shed for bikes, and once the bags are in there is nothing left to manage. Walking begins at the door in both directions, which is a rarer thing than it sounds when two dogs need turning out before breakfast.
Milnthorpe is the near town for shops and food, and Arnside is minutes further with a viaduct over the Kent estuary and a chip shop with a reputation. Levens Hall keeps the oldest topiary garden in the world and a deer park beyond it, and a second herd grazes the parkland at Dallam. The Lakes proper start north, but a dog need not go that far to get a good day.

Is The Stables - Heversham dog friendly?
Yes, The Stables welcomes dogs — up to two are allowed. It's a genuinely dog-considered place, with walking starting directly from the door in both directions, so there's no need to load everyone into the car before the day gets going.
Are dogs allowed at The Stables - Heversham year round?
The listing doesn't specify any seasonal restrictions on dogs, so it's worth contacting the property directly to confirm availability for your dates. Given that it's a dedicated dog-friendly conversion, it's set up to accommodate dogs as a matter of course rather than as an exception.
What should I know before visiting The Stables - Heversham with my dog?
The property allows a maximum of two dogs and has a small enclosed garden and patio, which is handy for letting them out without too much fuss. The description notes that no children stay here, so it's a quieter environment, and the rug in front of the upstairs log stove sounds like it will be claimed by your dogs fairly quickly. Walking is available straight from the door, and the surrounding area offers plenty to explore, from the parkland at Dallam and Levens Hall to the estuary at Arnside.
