Warm, characterful and cosy, this rural cottage is perfectly placed for couples, friends or small families to embark on outdoor adventures in the Lune Valley. Enjoy walks from the door and rambles or bike rides among the area’s incredible scenery, before returning for a sundowner on your private patio or a relaxed evening by the wood burner.
The heart of the historic cottage is its open-plan living space, where comfortable seating is arranged around a wood-burner in an inglenook fireplace and a Smart TV. A wide archway allows this space to flow through to the kitchen and dining area, making it easy to cook, eat and relax together. The galley-style kitchen includes everything necessary to prepare delicious meals, including a microwave and a dishwasher, and even boasts a Nespresso coffee machine. Upstairs, the main bedroom features a generous super-king-size bed and has an en-suite shower room, while the second bedroom is a king-size, which is served by a separate bathroom. Outside, a private garden with seating for four looks out towards the surrounding fields and fells, offering a peaceful spot in which to unwind and enjoy the views. Making arrivals and departures easy, off-road parking for two cars is provided.
In a private setting within a small complex of similar boutique properties, the cottage is 2 miles from Barbon, where there’s a village shop and a welcoming pub. The site’s location between the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales means you can easily explore a wide variety of nearby walks and cycle trails, while just metres from your front door, there’s a footpath leading up Middleton Fell. The historic market town of Kirkby Lonsdale, 6 miles, is full of independent boutiques, tempting food outlets and excellent restaurants, while Sedbergh, 7 miles, is packed with superb bookshops.
