Lovely refurbished cottage in the pretty village of Newby, in the Eden Valley. A great base for friends or family looking to explore Cumbria, the Lakes and the North Pennines.
Surrounded by rolling, green fields, there’s plenty locally for children to explore, while hours of walkies will make your four-legged friends very happy. Sleeping four guests and one dog, relax in this elegant and stylish space. Accessed either from the garden or the front of the property, outdoor enthusiasts will find the heated drying room useful for equipment and wet weather gear, and this room may even be perfect for a cosy dog bed too.
Spacious and light with splashes of colour, the open-plan living space is the heart of the house. Potter through to make a cup of tea in the fashionable kitchen area before inviting sofas beckon you to sink back to enjoy a good book with your canine curled up by your feet. Upstairs, the double bedroom has an en-suite bathroom with hand-held shower over the bath, while the 1’3” twin zip-and-link bedroom (which can be made up as a super-king-size on request at time of booking) has an en-suites shower room. Take in the morning with a coffee in the enclosed, rear garden. Dine alfresco here in the evening beneath starry skies.
With ample opportunities for cycling along quiet country roads, and fells, dales and valleys just waiting to be explored by avid walkers, outdoor enthusiasts on two and four legs will be in heaven. Enjoy on-lead walkies at Hutton-in-the-Forest (14 miles). The closest Lake District water body is Ullswater (14 miles) where you can enjoy a lake cruise. The walks around the lake and up into the surrounding fells are as numerous as they are beautiful – you will be spoilt for choice. Penrith (9 miles) has a variety of traditional shops and sophisticated arcades, as well as a choice of pubs, restaurants and cafes.
