Nenthead, Cumbria, England
A self contained bunkhouse in Nenthead, one of England's highest villages at 1,500 feet above sea level, within the Northern Pennines AONB and UNESCO Global Geopark. Mill Cottage Bunkhouse sits on the Coast to Coast cycle route and near Isaac's Tea Trail, with the Lake District a short drive away. The neighbouring Nenthead Mines, once a major lead and silver mining site, add historical depth to the location.
At £36 per night, this is priced for walkers, cyclists, and groups rather than luxury seekers. Six cabin style bunks with privacy curtains and reading lights occupy a single upstairs room, with a lounge, kitchen, and two shower rooms below. Exclusive use for one group at a time means no shared spaces with strangers. Secure bicycle storage and car parking are included.
We love the £36 price point. A private bunkhouse in a UNESCO Geopark on the C2C route, with exclusive use, at the cost of a pub meal. It is the strongest value proposition in this collection.
Many reviews praise Mill Cottage Bunkhouse for its peaceful location, beautiful walks, and friendly host Sarah. Guests consistently highlight the charming space and ease of communication. Highly recommended for a return visit.
