This old farmhouse, located in the heart of the Eden Valley, offers panoramic views over the Pennines and surrounding fields. An idyllic spot for nature lovers and those in need of some peace and quiet, the comfortable bedrooms give guests the luxury of having their own en-suite bathroom. The main living areas are just as inviting, and you'll find two wood-burning stoves to curl up in front of after a long country walk. Come evening time, the dining room table even converts to a half-sized snooker table. Alternatively, you'll be within walking distance of Melmerby village and its local pub.

About The North Pennines
It’s official – the North Pennines are beautiful. Designated an official Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and a UNESCO geological heritage site, this undulating area of North Yorkshire has spectacular scenery and a landscape that could tell the story of aeons gone by. Tiny stone-house villages and hamlets dot the valleys and cluster around babbling rivers – Bowlees is particularly idyllic and is home to the North Pennines information centre....
