Between the Yorkshire Dales and the Lake District National Parks, in the upper Eden Valley, is the historic market town of Kirkby Stephen. For every taste and price range, the typical market town offers a choice of stores, cafes, restaurants, and bars. Kirkby Stephen is a charming rural town with a vibrant neighbourhood and many historic old homes. It has cobbled old yards, charming corners, and a lovely picnic area where "Frank's Bridge" crosses the River Eden. A mile from the town, the old railway station connects to the magnificent Settle-Carlisle Railway line, a must-do travel experience for everyone.
Impressive mountains, open fells and clear-water lakes, the Lake District has it all. From walking in the mountains to exhilarating watersports or just a gentle cruise on a steam-powered yacht, Cumbria is the perfect holiday destination.

The place was clean, tidy and comfortable. Everything was there and in good order, with interesting décor, comfortable furnishings and a nice light kitchen, so you could just enjoy the place and its setting and use it as a base for wider travels across Cumbria and the Lakes - or even into Northumberland. The garden made an excellent spot for an outdoor meal, or just to sit and relax. The owners, Diane and Simon are friendly, easy-going people, who were happy to help in any way. The location is in a quiet totally rural setting adjacent to the working farm, but within a short drive of Kirkby Stephen’s shops, pubs and restaurants. It was good to see their small herd of Herefords in the adjoining paddock and to feel part of the farming community.
