Description:
The building of Barrie House began in 1873 by John Poole of Ulverston who employed builders William Park and George Kelsall of Barrow in Furness. John Poole was the Coroner for the Liberty and Manor of Furness and clerk to Ulverston School Board and a solicitor.

Abbey Road was the main thoroughfare and showpiece of the town at that time and still retains those features today. Many of the ‘gentry’ lived here on Abbey Road which was the longest tree-lined avenue in the country.

A Victorian house of magnificent proportions, Barrie House was converted to a Guest House during the last century. It provides comfortable and friendly accommodation retaining many of the original Victorian features. Barrie Guest House continues with the traditions of elegance and stylish comfort.

The Furness Peninsula is a little known treasure of the Lake District. The unspoilt beaches of Morecambe Bay and the Duddon Estuary offer much for those looking for quiet walks amongst magnificent scenery. These impressive tidal estuaries are home to many varieties of sea birds, waterfowl and waders including Eider ducks, Oystercatchers, Terns, Lapwings and Grebes. There are also raptors including Merlins, Peregrine Falcons, Sparrow hawks and Owls. Roanhead is home to the scarce Natterjack Toad whose far - carrying 'song' can be heard on calm, warm nights in May and June.
