About this property
A recently renovated, stone built, one bedroom conversion of former farm buildings situated on the owners' working farm within the Dales National Park. A modern, contemporary holiday home set out over one floor with an open plan design to take advantage of the magnificent views across the Howgill Fells. With large patio doors giving open and uninterrupted views, the spacious living area takes up the main area with a lovely sitting area designed to enjoy the views, a modern well equipped kitchen and dining area leading through to an open plan bedroom with super king-size bed. The adjoining wet room is spacious and provides a modern facility, ideal for relaxing after a hard day out on the fells. A great place to get away from it all, enjoy a romantic break, enjoy the many footpaths and the challenges of this wild and rugged area and perhaps even spot the odd red squirrel, or spring lambs during lambing season. . Enjoy a quiet and tranquil evening gazing at the stars. The lovely old town of Sedbergh is just 2 miles away, and a little further afield the Three Peaks challenge. An ideal touring base with both the Dales and the Lake District National Parks on the doorstep. Note: This property adjoins Ref 1292 and 1097, together they sleep 12.

Lily was lovely and helpful showing us around and explaining the various facilities. My partner is a wheelchair user and as such, accessibility was our main priority. The cottage didn't disappoint, wide doors and the open plan layout made our stay perfect. The weather was rotten but we felt warm and cosy with the under-floor heating. Will definitely visit again, highly recommended.

We loved the underfloor heating as we were there in November. The cottage was fully wheelchair-accessible. It was fascinating to be on the farm. Our hosts were very helpful, we can thoroughly recommend them!

To step into such ambience was a comforting and reassuring experience in a world full of haste. The owners, Alan and Lily were very welcoming and happy to chat, yet not intrusive .They made our stay. Knot Lodge was 4 star in every way. Every need was catered for. I found it to be truly wheelchair friendly and never encountered any difficulty. This holiday is a hidden gem!
