Lake District
Charming Eden Valley Location in Gamblesby Set on a picturesque village green in sought-after Gamblesby, this delightful Cumbrian farm holiday cottage offers an idyllic base for family breaks and countryside escapes. Nestled in the heart of the Eden Valley, you are surrounded by scenic walking and cycling routes that lead straight into the North Pennines AONB. The world-class fells and lakes of the Lake District National Park are just over a 30-minute drive away, while the historic Solway Coast is also within easy reach. Nearby local highlights include the ancient Long Meg Stone Circle, Lacy’s Cave, fishing at Blencarn, and the famous village bakery and traditional pub in neighbouring Melmerby.
Spacious & Characterful Family Living Combining rustic farm charm with generous living spaces, the cottage is thoughtfully equipped for relaxing group stays:
Cosy Main Lounge: Settle into the large leather sofa and armchair around a roaring wood burner (initial log supply included) for movie nights with the TV and DVD player.
Fully Equipped Farmhouse Kitchen: Modern appliances make self-catering effortless, featuring a range cooker, electric oven and hob, dishwasher, microwave, fridge/freezer, and a washing machine.
Feature Dining Room: Share family feasts around the dining table set within a beautifully decorated room anchored by a historic feature fireplace.
Flexible Bedrooms & Games Area: The upper level hosts three peaceful bedrooms—a master double bedroom and two bright twin rooms, one of which includes table football for evening entertainment.
Two Bathrooms: Convenience for the whole family with a ground-floor shower room with WC, plus a spacious family bathroom with WC upstairs.
Enclosed Walled Sun Garden At the rear of the property, a pretty walled garden features a lush lawn and patio furniture. Safe and private, this quiet outdoor sanctuary acts as a natural sun trap on warm days—perfect for morning coffee or outdoor dining after exploring the valley.
