The property
Dairy Cottage is a delightful character property located in Newby, just seven miles south of Penrith between the Lake District and the North Pennines.
This stone building retains many original features befitting a property of its age and offers comfortable accommodation for a couple or a small family looking to holiday near the Lake District.
The ground floor opens into a comfortable sitting area, with a feature inglenook fireplace housing an electric wood burner-effect fire.
Wooden seating adorns the bay window and the beamed ceilings add to the warm feel of this cosy property.
The exposed stone walls are a feature of the ground floor, including the wood-effect finished kitchen that includes a small dining set.
Upstairs offers a charming double bedroom and a twin bedroom with a sloping wooden ceiling.
To the rear of the cottage, a charming sun trap awaits in the enclosed stoned garden area with a barbecue, furniture and space for two cars.
Newby is a tiny hamlet, offering the cottage a peaceful location.
However, a two minute drive is all that is needed to reach the amenities of nearby Morland and the beauty of Morland Beck.
Further afield is the busy market town of Penrith, still only a seven mile trip north from Dairy Cottage.
The cottage is ideally positioned to explore the Lake District to the west, with Lowther Gardens only fifteen minutes away.
To the north-east, the might of Cross Fell beckons from the North Pennines.
Located ideally near Penrith between two areas of stunning natural beauty, Dairy Cottage offers a peaceful retreat for a small family or couple at any time of the year.
Accommodation
Two first floor bedrooms: 1 x King size bed, 1 x twin with sloped ceiling. Bathroom with bath, shower over, basin and WC. Kitchen with dining seating. Sitting room with exposed stone walls and feature fireplace with electric wood burner effect.
