Cumbrian Dreams has been welcoming guests to carefully prepared holiday homes in Cumbria for several years, specialising in properties suited to families, groups and special occasions. We manage a small collection of hand-picked homes, allowing us to focus on quality, comfort and a consistently high standard of preparation. Our team operates from our Gateshead office and works closely with trusted local partners to ensure each property is spotless, well maintained and ready for your arrival. We pride ourselves on being responsive, approachable and easy to reach should you need assistance during your stay.

Big Pink House is made for celebrations and bringing everyone together in one unforgettable place. With plenty of space to socialise and nine ensuite bedrooms, it’s ideal for milestone birthdays, family reunions, group get-togethers and special weekends where you want to make proper memories. Guests love the layout because it works brilliantly for groups, with generous communal areas for shared meals, games and relaxed evenings, while still giving everyone their own privacy and comfort when it’s time to unwind. The private hot tub and games room are always a hit and keep the atmosphere fun whatever the weather. The house also has a bright, distinctive character that makes it feel more like a destination in itself, not just somewhere to sleep. It’s the kind of place where the group can truly switch off, settle in and celebrate properly from the moment you arrive.

Big Pink House is set in the peaceful countryside of Mealsgate, offering a private, rural escape where groups can properly switch off and enjoy time together. Guests love the sense of space, fresh air and open surroundings, while still being a short drive from Wigton and Carlisle for shops, supermarkets and essentials. For food and drinks, there are welcoming local pubs and cafés nearby, and Carlisle offers a wider choice of restaurants alongside classic local landmarks including Carlisle Castle and the cathedral. The location is also ideal for elevated day trips, with scenic countryside walks, the Solway Coast, Hadrian’s Wall and the northern Lake District all within easy reach. For celebrations and special weekends, guests can arrange private dining and catering to make the stay feel even more effortless and memorable.
