1 bedroom Cottage near Sedbergh, Westmorland and Furness, England

This traditional mid-terrace cottage has been meticulously presented to create a romantic retreat on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales. Despite sitting in this beloved national park, the cottage is in fact located in Cumbria, offering access to the endless countryside beauty of this county too, including the Lake District National Park (15 miles). A bolthole for two to escape to, the cottage is a truly impressive base offering slow mornings and restful evenings in between hikes, bike rides and sightseeing excursions. It’s also dog-friendly, encouraging you to tour the local walking territory with some canine company.

It's clear that love and attention have been given to the renovation of this country cottage, a space with lovely furnishings and appealing accents throughout. You’ll love spending evenings in the cosy lounge/diner with the wood burner emitting warmth and a gentle glow - a delightful ambience to enjoy whilst sitting down to dinner or watching a film on the Smart TV. The kitchen is just through an archway, along with access to the rear patio. The patio space is elevated with a small flight of stone steps leading up to a furnished spot with incredible views. Moving back inside and upstairs, the property benefits from a comfortable double bedroom and a refreshing, well-appointed bathroom.

Walk the mile into Sedbergh, an invigorating Cumbrian town that’s laid out with winding streets, historic architecture and a selection of independent bookshops that literary lovers will adore getting lost in. Discover also Farfield Mill (1 mile), a heritage gallery on the edge of town with exhibitions, a tearoom and plenty of arts and crafts appeal. For walking opportunities, the Dales Way passes just metres from the house offering 80 miles of waymarked pathway leading from Bowness-in-Windermere all the way down to Yorkshire’s Ilkley.
