Boskins - Two Bedroom House, Sleeps 4

Occupying the lower section of a former threshing barn, this imaginatively updated retreat is a perfect hideaway for couples and smaller families keen to explore the beautiful northwestern corner of the Yorkshire Dales. Set on the owner’s smallholding, the property offers a wealth of breathtaking walks, with the River Rawthay passing close by. The cheerful town of Sedbergh (1 mile) is known for its independent shops, traditional pubs, narrow streets and historic buildings, with a market dating back to the 13th century. To the south, the beautiful Dentdale leads to the picturesque village of Dent (6.5 miles), home of the Dent Village Heritage Centre and Museum and a stop along the famous Settle to Carlisle railway line. For keen walkers and nature lovers, the cottage is ideally placed for access to both the Yorkshire Dales and Lake District National Parks. Enter this thoughtfully updated retreat and head into the spacious lounge/diner, featuring stone walls and a characterful beamed ceiling. There’s a Smart TV, a coal-effect stove and comfortable seating, with a country-style dining table to the side. You’ll find the kitchen is fully equipped for holiday meal prep and boasts plenty of workspace and storage. The property has two delightful bedrooms to choose between. Both rooms offer zip-and-link super-king-size beds (can be made up as twins on request for added flexibility), one of which features an original exposed stone wall and full-length windows looking out towards the patio. Both bedrooms also have refreshing en-suites – one shower room and one bathroom with a shower over the bath. Heading outside, the enclosed patio has plenty of garden furniture, offering a relaxing spot to sit out and dine alfresco on a sunny day. There’s also an enclosed field for dogs to run around, as well as a washing and drying room with a doggy shower. Guests are welcome to help feed some of the animals on the smallholding – please note that farm dogs and chickens roam freely. Off-road parking is available for two cars.
