Alston 1 mile. A sympathetically restored, terraced barn conversion, set behind the owners home and Bed and Breakfast in a rural location, one mile from Alston in Cumbria. This comfortable cottage is ideal for a couple or friends seeking a break in the superb Cumbrian countryside. The Hayloft is mainly situated on the first floor and has a cleverly designed open plan living area, allowing guests to discuss their day in front of the warming open fire, whilst the evening meal is being prepared nearby. Two double bedrooms, one with a handy zip/link bed for flexible sleeping, and a ground floor family bathroom, complete the accommodation. A small shared patio to the side of the cottage presents stunning views over the surrounding countryside and is the perfect place to chill out at the end of a busy day. This area is perfect for walkers and cyclists, or for those who prefer stargazing, as on clear nights, the evening skys display of stars is not to be missed. Nearby Alston is a traditional country town with a selection of welcoming pubs serving real ale and good food. The Pennine Way also passes through the town, which is also on the C2C Cycle Route. With lots to see and do within an hours drive, including Hadrian’s Wall, Beamish open air living museum, Durham Cathedral and the Lake District, this is a great spot for a welcoming break.
