Wild Thyme

Talkin Tarn Country Park offers water sports, walking trails and organised activities from archery to shelter building—all within reach of Wild Thyme. The cottage sits in a converted hotel complex with landscaped gardens that lead down to the tarn's edge, and you can arrange swimming, fishing, canoeing, paddle boarding or boating through the park authority.

The cottage accommodates four across two bedrooms and two bathrooms. A picture window frames the view across the garden to the water, and the sitting room has a woodburning stove and Smart TV for quieter evenings. There is a private patio with seating. The kitchen is equipped for self-catering, and essentials including bed linen, towels, electricity and wifi are provided. Parking is in the car park opposite the entrance.

Wild Thyme suits families or two couples looking for a base with activities built in, whether organised through Talkin Adventures or self-directed. The setting works year-round. Smoking is not permitted inside.
