Grooms' Quarters is a distinctive two-bedroom apartment at Netherby Hall, designed for guests seeking both luxury and practicality in the Cumbrian countryside near Carlisle. Set within the beautifully restored Victorian stables, this spacious apartment is particularly well suited to outdoor enthusiasts, walkers, cyclists, and dog owners.
One of its standout features is the generous ground-floor boot room and utility space - ideal for storing bikes, drying dogs, and leaving muddy boots behind after a day exploring the surrounding countryside. Upstairs, the apartment opens into a large, light-filled kitchen, dining, and living space positioned above the original stable block, creating a welcoming hub for relaxing and socialising.
With bedrooms thoughtfully positioned at either end of the apartment, Grooms' Quarters offers privacy and balance, making it a popular choice for friends or couples travelling together. Throughout, high-quality finishes and carefully chosen furnishings - including premium Harris & Spinks mattresses - ensure a comfortable and restorative stay.

Beautiful place to stay, accommodation is amazing, staff very friendly and helpful, they even run a free shuttle bus to the pub that's about 5 miles away and bring you back, if you get a meal there, I cant recommend this place highly enough..
