About this property

Geltsdale Hows, Kirkoswald - a cottage that sleeps 3 guests in 2 bedrooms

Nestled amidst rolling countryside, four charming holiday cottages await, each uniquely styled and brimming with character. These stylish homes, thoughtfully converted from 17th-century farm buildings, offer a tranquil retreat perfect for unwinding and exploring. Imagine yourself strolling through the cobbled courtyard, surrounded by flourishing gardens, and stepping into your own private haven. Each cottage boasts its own private patio or garden with outdoor seating, perfect for al fresco dining, and you'll also have access to a shared garden with strategically placed seating for enjoying the breathtaking views or simply finding some peaceful solitude.

The eco-friendly ethos of the owners ensures a sustainable and stylish stay. Indulge in homemade treats and fresh flowers upon arrival, a warm welcome from the owners who are always on hand to share local tips and recommendations. Enjoy the shared BBQ and laundry facilities. Explore the nearby villages, each with its own inviting pub serving real ales and friendly locals. Discover the beauty of the Eden Valley, with walks right from your doorstep!

This charming cottage, once a barn, now offers unique upside-down accommodation, maximising the stunning views across the garden and surrounding countryside.

Perfect for a small family or friends seeking a relaxing getaway, the ground floor features a double and a single bedroom, providing comfortable and private spaces. Also on the ground floor there is a small but perfectly formed shower room.

Ascend to the first floor, where the open-plan living area awaits. Original beams add rustic charm, while large windows frame breathtaking views of Renwick Fell, showcasing the beauty of each season. Settle into comfy seating around the Smart TV for cosy evenings, or prepare delicious home-cooked meals in the well-equipped kitchen. The kitchen features an electric oven and induction hob, fridge with a small freezer compartment, dishwasher, and microwave. Enjoy your meals together at the dining table.

All electric, gas, logs, bed linen, and towels are included. Two medium-sized dogs are welcome. Private patio with garden furniture. Access to a communal freezer (shared between Geltsdale Hows, Hazelrigg, and Inglewood).
