flag A proposal to convert a historic, single-storey barn in Penrith, within the Lake District National Park, into a holiday let has been submitted. flag The barn, believed to date from at least 1888 and part of the Cost to Coast farm site, would be renovated with two bedrooms, a bathroom, kitchen, and new windows. flag The applicant argues its remote location makes it unsuitable for affordable housing, aligning with national park policies favoring tourism use over residential redevelopment. flag The project aims to preserve the building’s heritage and support the local economy through tourism. flag The Lake District National Park Authority will decide on the application.
