Description
Soulby 0.5 miles.
Rainbow Cottage is a delightful conversion of the main cow byre of Sykeside Farm, set half a mile down a farm lane from the village of Soulby in the glorious Eden Valley.
Boasting far-reaching views across the valley to the Pennines and the Howgill Fells, this cottage offers spacious accommodation for groups of up to eight people.
Original beams and stained glass features add character to this comfortable, well-equipped cottage.
With accommodation all on the ground floor, this cottage allows easy access for anyone in a wheelchair or those who are less mobile and there is ramped access up to the front door, whilst inside there are low light switches and high power sockets, a wheelchair-accessible shower cubicle and wide doorways.
The large fitted kitchen is well equipped and is open to the dining area, and the cosy sitting room has a woodburner-style electric stove.
There are three bedrooms at this lovely holiday home offering flexible sleeping arrangements for any family staying, and completing the accommodation are a bathroom and shower room.
Outside this charming cottage are a number of places where you can relax and unwind on a sunny day, including a front lawned garden, a terrace and a courtyard area, and if it does rain then enjoy a game of table tennis in the adjacent games room.
Surrounded by open countryside, the cottage is an excellent base for those who enjoy walking, cycling and horseriding.
Just 2.5 miles away is the market town of Kirkby Stephen, which offers shops, restaurants and pubs, while the Settle-Carlisle Railway, the Howgill Fells, Pennines and the ruins of Brough and Pendragon castles are all within easy reach.
Also the Lake District, Yorkshire Dales and the Durham Dales, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty are all within a half hour drive.
A superb cottage, close to many places of interest.
