Shepherd’s Cottage (Sleeps 2)
Welcome to this rustic romantic cottage for two, built in the 1500’s, now lovingly renovated to create the perfect escape for couples, nestled between the Yorkshire Dales National Park and the Lake District.
Lounge and kitchen are linked together complete with homely Aga in one end and wood burner in the other. There’s a quirky little pantry too, where you’ll find an honesty bar with local beers, spirits & fizz. Upstairs there’s a huge bedroom with hand made 4 poster super-kingsize bed, changing room and beautiful bathroom with double ended roll top bath & separate shower. There’s also a small child’s room, just large enough for a travel cot or z-bed, on request.
If you enjoy being outdoors then the roll top cast iron bath in the walled garden is just for you!! Piping hot water on tap, fill with bubbles and enjoy a soak under the stars, swimsuit or birthday suit, the choice is yours.
After a walk on the fells, it’s time to pop open the complimentary chilled champagne from the welcome hamper and relax with just the sounds of the countryside around you.
Inside the Cottage it’s spacious yet homely with oak beamed ceilings, original stone mantle over the claret Aga and old spice cupboard. An ancient flag stone welcomes you into the handmade kitchen, which has been lovingly created by Richard. Everything you need to cook up a feast can be found in the kitchen, it’s a home from home. If cooking isn’t your thing, then you can simply wander across the footpath to The Fat Lamb Inn, just 5 fields away. There are two more great pubs in the village of Ravenstonedale, 3 miles away.
Enjoy the treats inside the champagne welcome hamper, which include a delicious homemade cake from Katie’s Cakes and artisan sourdough bread from Ivy Cottage Baker, local handmade chocolates from Kennedy’s Chocolate Shop, hand toasted Lakeland Mues muesli and the most amazing apple juice made here in Cumbria by Eva’s Organics – the perfect start to your holiday.
