We have converted an adjacent building into a home cinema room with a HiFi DVD player with surround sound, this projects onto a 200cm (6Ft) cinema projection screen. Also connected is a Nintendo Wii which is WiFi enabled to allow BBC iPlayer to be shown.

The cinema room has a full blackout so you can use the system at any time, heating, emergency lighting and bean bags & chairs to allow upto 6 people to watch a movie. We built the room because we know its difficult to find things to do on a cold wet day in the Lake District especially for kids - this room will certainly keep them busy and the Wii in particular has been a big hit with all our younger guests. The cottage also has a selection of more traditional games which can be played in the room.

Thre is also a WiFi internet connection so you can use your laptops etc in the room.

It looks out onto the rear patio and seating area so with the BBQ handy its great for eating in if its a little chilly or wet.

"The cottage was clean and very comfortable, it had everything we needed, the 2 gardens and entertainment room were a real bonus." Steve & Family from Leeds
