After a long day out the house will welcome you back home with a promise of it's open fires, log burners and oil fired aga in the kitchen.
As well as the beautiful rural surroundings the house lies at the heart of a village location which is lucky enough to have its own pub. Beckoning with its pleasant ambience the pub also serves up wonderful 'pub grub' as well as food for those with a more discerning palate!

The Cumbria/Lake District
Cumbria is of course famous for its beautiful lakes (Wordsworth country) and its undulating lofty fells, hills and mountains and these can be taken full advantage of in this lovely house in this wonderful part of the world.
If walking is not necessarily for you, then there are plenty of other activities to enjoy such as visiting the many abbeys, monasteries, churches and of course castles that Cumbria has to offer. Many of them only a short drive away. Closer to home is our local town, Kirkby Stephen where you will find plenty of places to eat lunch or afternoon tea or perhaps enjoy a warming cup of cocoa on those colder days or a pot of tea and a slice of cake. It is quaint and as well as the many choices of cafes and pubs there are also antique shops offering both fine antiques as well as more affordable country antiques. There are also, of course, shops where you can purchase your groceries, newspapers and essentials.
Kirkby Stephen area
Every Monday there is a farmer’s market which has been held in the town centre since 1530. Certainly worth a visit to soak up the atmosphere of this ancient town and get a feel for the farming community, agriculture being the main occupation for the people of Cumbria. Cumbria is known for its country fairs as well as its tradition of sheepdog trials, dry-stone walling contests, hound trailing, fell racing to mention but a few. Watch out for the Cumberland sausage (no they won’t jump up and attack!) - these sausages can measure up to 4 feet long and are baked whole, of course having previously been wrapped up in a coil! Also, look out for the Cumberland Ham, another traditional and popular Cumbrian delight.
How to get there
The Manor house is easily accessible by road as it is approximately 15 miles from junction 38 of the M6, or 2 miles south of the A66 at Brough. There are also train stations close by at Kirkby Stephen and Appleby.
