Hill House, Winton, Nr Kirkby Stephen, Cumbria, England - Sleeps 5

Detached former farmhouse which has been recently renovated to a very high standard. Accommodation is over two floors.

Downstairs:

• Welcoming lounge with two comfy leather sofas and an armchair is a cosy spot to relax at the end of the day. Snuggle up next to the wood burning stove and watch the 42 inch Smart TV or switch off the TV and play one of the traditional board games left by the owners. There is an attractive stone window seat where you can sit and watch the world go by.
• Kitchen/diner has everything you need to cook up a feast on holiday including a Stoves oven, hob, extractor, dishwasher, Kenwood microwave, fridge/freezer and a washing machine. The ivory coloured cabinets are complimented by a modern silestone worktop whilst the kitchen sink has stunning countryside views. The dining area has a characterful exposed stone wall, a TV and table and chairs to seat six guests. On a summer's evening you can throw open the patio doors and enjoy far stretching views across the lawn to the local fells. During the winter months the whole of the downstairs is kept cosy with underfloor heating.
• Modern wet room with a large shower with both a rainwater and traditional shower head. There is also a WC, basin, towel rail and an illuminated shaver mirror.
• Understairs cupboard can be used for drying coats and boots.

Climb the original stone staircase to three bedrooms upstairs. Whilst the stairs are not particularly steep, due to their hard surface the owners recommend that bookings are not made for children under ten years old.

Upstairs:

• Gorgeous master bedroom with a king sized bed, bedside tables, large fitted wardrobe, and dressing table with mirror and stool.
• Spacious twin bedroom with two single beds (which can be a zip and link super king-size bed on request), a bedside table, a fitted wardrobe, and a dressing table. Both the master and twin bedrooms have exposed original wooden flooring and a characterful stone window seat with stunning countryside views over the Pennines.
• Smaller third bedroom with a single bed, bedside table, hanging area and chest of drawers. The exposed eaves and wooden pegged beams give this room plenty of character and you can also enjoy lovely views over the farmyard and beyond onto the fells.
• Wake yourself up with a rainwater morning shower in the large family shower room which also has a WC, washbasin and radiator.

Outside: The sun trap terrace and lawn area to the rear of the cottage is a lovely spot to enjoy a morning cup of tea, evening sundowner, or simply to relax and enjoy the beautiful views. The garden backs onto the owner's field where you can often spot red squirrels and hedgehogs and enjoy the sounds of owls and woodpeckers from the beech trees. Please note the farmyard at the rear of the property is a private area and is no longer in use. There is off road parking for two cars at the front of the property.
