Breathtaking views are prioritised in this first-floor apartment in an elevated country cottage in the Cumbrian village of Bolton. Close to the River Eden and with the vibrant town of Appleby-in-Westmorland just a drive away (4.5 miles), couples or small families are well positioned to enjoy a host of activities from this fantastic single-storey base, including walking, bike riding, fishing and savouring delicious food and drinks in local pubs. Four guests are invited to sit either outdoors or in, planning an endless array of adventures with fields in view and the peaceful sounds of bleating sheep in the air.
Original barn features including stable doors and low-hanging beams feature throughout this first-floor apartment, adding to its country charm. Large windows and smartly positioned skylights flood the space with natural light and keep things bright and optimistic, particularly in the lounge/diner with its impressive picture window. Benefiting from an incredible view, you’ve got the option to switch the Sky TV on or simply sit and admire the view as the wood burner-effect electric fire warms your toes. Along the hallway, past the galley kitchen, a king-size room and a twin bedroom share a spacious, well-appointed shower room. Moving outside, the garden, shared with neighbouring properties, is an outdoor escape, offering outdoor seating and an abundance of grassy lawn space.
Owing to its Cumbrian location, this property is conveniently located for exploring both the Yorkshire Dales National Park (6 miles) and the Lake District National Park (7 miles), meaning adventure is always assured. It’s close to the Great Asby Scar vicinity (10 miles) at the top of The Dales – a wild area of high ground that’s littered with fascinating limestone and offers plenty of incredible vantage points with views that reach as far as the Lake District.
