Halsteads comfortably sleeps 6 people.
At the top of the Furness Peninsula in the South Lakes lies a collection of hamlets called Kirkby-in-Furness. Halsteads is found in Sandside, overlooking the Duddon Estuary and has a stunning panoramic view with over 30 tops visible on a clear day. It is close to the spectacular Duddon Valley, the Lakeland Coastal path runs almost by the door and the Central Lakes are only ¾ of an hour away. It is an ideal centre for walkers as there is excellent access to Southern and Western fells. There is much for cyclists, ornithologists and naturalists to enjoy, as well as those wishing to simply relax in a quieter part of the Lakes.
