SLEEPS FOUR - SIX

Ghyll Burn is a welcoming and cosy stone cottage dating back to 1680. The owners have fully renovated it so it has all the great amenities you’ll need, while keeping its original features and charm.

You’ll find Ghyll Burn Cottage up a tree-lined private track in a secluded valley where the small Ghyll Burn flows. You’ll enjoy peace and tranquility surrounded by an abundance of wildlife such as red squirrel, roe deer and many species of birds. The owners have a specialist hardy plant nursery on site, which you are free to explore, and way-marked footpaths criss-cross the area leading to the South Tyne and the Pennine Way.

The cottage sleeps four to six and a cot and highchair are available. It is centrally heated with a log-burning stove in the living room. The linen, towels, electricity and heating are all included.

Pets are welcome in the cottage by prior arrangement.

Ghyll Burn Cottage is a short drive from Alston, the highest market town in Cumbria, which has good amenities including butchers, bakers, general stores and tourist information, a full list of which can be found in the cottage once you arrive. The local pubs in Alston serve a variety of excellent home-cooked food. There is a fish and chip shop, chemist, hardware store and an outdoor shop providing discounted clothing.

The cottage is ideal for local walks or cycling along the river and hillsides with unspoilt panoramic views of moorland and an abundance of wildlife
