4 Bed in Alston (oc-92351)
At almost 1,000 feet above sea level, the market town of Alston is the highest in England. The South Tynedale Railway begins at this station, which houses England's highest narrow-gauge railway. Those with a sense of adventure can embark on a long, steep climb up Hartside Fell, which forms part of the Coast-to-Coast Cycle Route. Visit Ashgill Force, a 5-mile-long waterfall with spectacular cascading falls. The bustling town of Penrith is only 20 miles away and boasts an abundance of history as well as independent shops, bars and restaurants. Pooley Bridge (24 miles) is located on the banks of Ullswater, England’s second largest lake; enjoy a scenic cruise around the lake, hire your own boat or go kayaking or paddle boarding before tucking into some delicious food in one of the local eateries.
This newly renovated townhouse offers a central town location as well as stylish and modern living spaces across three floors. As you enter, you'll be greeted by a contemporary open-plan lounge and dining area. Sink into the comfortable sofas as you watch the Smart TV in front of the cosy electric wood burner effect fire after a busy day exploring. You'll find a spacious dining area where you can enjoy meals and spend quality time with your family or friends. The ground floor also boasts a well-equipped kitchen, whether you're a budding chef or simply enjoy preparing meals, you'll find everything you need in this modern kitchen. The first floor has a king size bedroom and a further double room, offering a cosy and inviting space for relaxation. The family bathroom is on this floor which features a separate shower and bath, perfect for soothing aching muscles and unwinding after a long day exploring. Another set of stairs lead to the second floor where you'll find a further double room with an ottoman bed for extra storage and a twin room, both with high ceilings, creating a sense of openness and tranquillity. Both rooms are served by the shower room and have been thoughtfully designed and offer the perfect place to recharge.
The enclosed yard is accessed from the kitchen and features outdoor furniture, perfect for a morning coffee or al fresco dining.
