Castle House Cottage
This is Castle House Cottage in Hartley. It's attached to the main house on one side, but the garden is yours. It's quiet here. You'll hear the stream from the front.
It's a single bedroom cottage that sleeps three. It's a four star rating, so it's well looked after. The bathroom has a bath and a separate shower. The bedroom is upstairs, it's big and has beams and a little galleried area. The stairs are original stone, so they're steep in parts.
The cottage was a brewery and an inn a long time ago, from the 1700s. You can see the ruins of the old castle on the hill right from the village. On Hartley Fell you can find the Nine Standards, which are nine standing stones.
It's on the Coast to Coast path, so it's really geared for walkers. There's a path that gets you into Kirkby Stephen in about five minutes. Kirkby Stephen has shops, pubs, a couple of supermarkets, and a train station on the Settle-Carlisle line. There's a Monday market.
For bikes, there's storage here. There's an e-bike hire place in the village and normal bike hire in Kirkby Stephen. The area is on the main C2C cycling route.
You're right on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales. The North Pennines and the Howgill Fells are a short drive. The Lake District is about a 30 minute drive if you want to go over there.
Facilities wise: there's a washing machine, WiFi, a TV, a cot and highchair if you need them. Bedding and towels are included. There's parking here. The garden is enclosed. You can bring up to two dogs.
Useful links for planning: Yorkshire Dales National Park, Lake District National Park, and North Pennines AONB.
