Experience the tranquil beautify of Cumbria’s Eden Valley with an escape to this impressive converted barn. Relish the views from the huge garden as you dine alfresco, challenge each other to a game of table tennis or snuggle by the wood burner - this is an inviting retreat for large families or groups of friends, welcoming your two furry companions as well.
This magnificent property includes plenty of space to socialise or enjoy the peace and quiet. Cooks will adore the kitchen/diner, in which old beams and exposed brick complement sleek, modern appliances. Admire the gorgeous vistas of rolling countryside from the conservatory, or there’s a choice of two lounges, both with Smart TVs: one on the ground floor, where there are leather Chesterfields and a wood burner, and another on the first floor which has an open fire and table football. Also on the ground floor is a shower room with WC, Jack-and-Jill-style with a twin bedroom. The remaining three bedrooms are all on the first floor, sharing a family bathroom. Step down onto the patio, where you can dine while you watch your children and pets play on the lawn (accessed via steps or a slope). There’s also another area with comfy furniture for al fresco relaxation, and a games barn with table tennis and laundry facilities.
There could hardly be a better location for getting out and about in the fresh air: you’re just a mile from the North Pennines, while the Yorkshire Dales can be reached in 5 miles and Lake District in 19. The charming market towns of Kirkby Stephen and Appleby-in-Westmorland are both less than 6 miles away, each with historic buildings (the latter has a 17th century castle, too) and a variety of interesting shops, pubs and places to eat.
