Kirkby Stephen Holiday Lodge
Kirkby Stephen,
Cumbria
Prime Location on the Lake District & Yorkshire Dales Border Set within the grand, manicured grounds of a historic estate on the outskirts of Kirkby Stephen, this traditional Cumbrian gate lodge offers a peaceful countryside escape with abundant space for the whole family. Positioned right on the border between the Lake District National Park and the Yorkshire Dales, you are perfectly placed for endless walking, cycling, and sightseeing adventures. A short stroll brings you into the heart of Kirkby Stephen, home to independent shops, charming cafes, and traditional Cumbrian pubs. The nearby market towns of Appleby, Kendal, Sedbergh, and Penrith are also within easy driving distance for historic castles, local markets, and cultural attractions.
Spacious Character Interiors with Dual Fireplaces Rich in heritage and architectural charm, the lodge pairs magnificent original exposed wooden beams with expansive, light-filled living spaces:
Dual-Aspect Main Lounge: The impressive living room features two distinct relaxation areas—one end hosts a large corner sofa arranged around a classic open fire and TV, while the other offers a cosy reading nook with two plush armchairs by a roaring wood-burning stove.
Country Kitchen & Pantry: Located down a short flight of steps, the practical kitchen/diner comes fully equipped with an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, washing machine, and a traditional walk-in pantry for storing local produce.
Ground-Floor Bedroom & Shower Room: A private ground-floor single bedroom sits alongside a convenient, modern shower room with WC.
First-Floor Master Suite & Family Bathroom: Upstairs features a bright single room that leads through an open archway into a grand master bedroom (featuring a flexible king-size zip-and-link bed, convertible to twin 2’6″ beds on request). A main family bathroom with a shower-over-bath and WC serves the upper floor.
Lawned Gardens & Countryside Views Outside, the lodge is surrounded by expansive, open lawned gardens overlooking rolling Cumbrian fields. Unwind at the outdoor picnic bench for al fresco meals while enjoying the serene estate grounds and fresh countryside air.
