About this property
Riverbank Cottage - One Bedroom House, Sleeps 2
Nestled on the banks of the tranquil River Eden, this unique cottage offers breath-taking riverside views, making it the perfect romantic getaway for couples looking to unwind. Kirkby Stephen is a delightful market town in the Eden Valley, home to the historic St. Stephen's Church, the fascinating Kirkby Stephen Heritage Centre and the Eden Valley Railway, offering scenic train rides through the countryside. Visit the Nine Standards Rigg (4 miles) providing breath-taking hiking opportunities and the tranquil Smardale Gill Nature Reserve (3 miles) ideal for birdwatching and leisurely walks. The Yorkshire Dales is on your doorstep where you can explore the dramatic landscapes of High Force Waterfall, the beautiful Aysgarth Falls and the picturesque village of Hawes, all within 25 miles. The Lake District is also just a short drive away and can be reached within 18 miles.
With unique character and homely interior, the cottage exudes warmth and comfort, providing an idyllic setting for a romantic getaway. As you step inside, you're greeted by the cosy main living space, where a comfortable sofa invites you to snuggle up and enjoy watching the TV. The kitchen area is thoughtfully equipped, ideal for whipping up lazy brunches or intimate dinners. A tall table with seating offers a delightful spot to enjoy your meals while taking in the stunning views over the river and countryside beyond. Also on the ground floor you’ll find a lovely shower room complete with all the essentials for a refreshing start or end to your day. Head upstairs to discover another seating area with TV, perfect for unwinding with a book, and a comfortable double bed to ensure a restful night's sleep.
Outside, the cottage boasts a charming front patio area with bench seating where you can relax and watch the world go by. The side of the cottage leads directly onto the riverbank, offering a perfect spot for a picnic, feeding the ducks, or dipping your toes in the cool waters of the River Eden. There is also off-road parking for 1 car.
