Guests that stayed at this property said
The property is generally described as clean and comfortable. However, one review mentioned the presence of black mould and a need for cleaning equipment, suggesting room for improvement in this area.
The location is highly praised for its peacefulness, beautiful views, and easy access to the surrounding countryside, the Lakes, Yorkshire Dales, and other attractions, making it an excellent base for exploration.
The accommodation is considered cosy and very comfortable by several guests, though it is noted to be basic and dated. The presence of farm animals adds to the comfort for some visitors.
Facilities are adequate with mentions of a functional hob, microwave, and air fryer. However, several reviews cite issues with a broken oven, shower door, and other maintenance concerns that affect the overall experience.
Guests have mentioned a warm welcome with thoughtful touches like lemon drizzle cake and fresh milk. While these gestures are appreciated, they are not guaranteed for every stay.
About this property
Brough 3.8 miles. Tucked away among the peaceful grounds of the owners home, on the outskirts of the pint-sized village of Warcop, rests this delightful holiday home, Row End farm. Set across one level and framing tranquil views across the surrounding farmyard, Row End farm is idyllically positioned for a small family or group of friends seeking a rural retreat. Park up on your private driveway before climbing a handful of wooden steps to the wrap-around decked area; a lovely spot to indulge in a hearty breakfast or soak in the last of the evening sun as the charming farmyard animals graze in the surrounding fields. Stepping inside, be welcomed into the open-plan living space, sure to be the social hub of the space, where you can look forward to kicking off your muddy boots and warming your toes in front of the electric fire following a day of adventure. When stomachs start to rumble, make use of the fantastic facilities provided in the kitchen to rustle up some tasty treats, and gather together with your loved ones at the nearby dining table to recount the days adventures as you indulge. As the evening grows darker, retire for the evening to one of two well-presented bedrooms, with the choice between a twin or a double, each positioned at opposite ends of the holiday home for those who prefer their privacy. In the morning, kick-start your day with a revitalizing rinse before joining your guests out on the decking to plan the days itinerary over a steaming cup of coffee. Lace up your walking boots and take advantage of your close proximity to the North Pennines, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, where the scenic moorland offers a plethora of walking, cycling and hiking routes to suit a range of abilities, including the hike to the summit of Murton Pike and less strenuous South Tyne Trail, following the disused Haltwhistle railway. After working up an appetite, treat your loved ones to a bite to eat at the nearby pub, the Sandford Arms, or for a wider variety, jump in the car and journey to the nearby town of Brough, where you can soak in the sights alongside the banks of Swindale Beck with a scoop form Brough Castle Ice Cream Parlour, or enjoy a hearty home-cooked meal at The Inn at Brough. Whilst you're in the area, be sure to explore the historic ruins of Brough Castle, or journey through the peaceful countryside aboard a heritage train at the Eden Valley Railway. Escape the excitement and cast your line with a spot of fishing on the banks of the River Eden, or test your swing with a round of golf at the 18-hole inland links course at Appleby Golf Club. Treat your loved ones to a countryside escape with a stay at Row End farm.
Resting at the foot of the North Pennines, in the Eden Valley, rests the small town of Brough. The town plays home to all of the essentials amenities, including a selection of eateries along with a well-stocked convenience store. Historians will be delighted with a tour of Brough Castle, nestled on the outskirts of the town. Within easy reach of both Kirkby Stephen and Appleby-in-Westmorland, Brough makes the perfect base to explore the delights of Cumbria.

Carlisle not to far away and very interesting place to visit. Grandchildren loved been on a farm. Caravan was little out dated but was ok for what we needed it for. Will use it again if ever up that way.

Owners and family were really friendly and on hand if you needed anything. We will be returning next year.

The cooker was not working and had been replaced by airfryer, microwave and halogen cooker. We managed because there was only two of us, but a family of four would have struggled. Children would have enjoyed seeing the animals close too and there was plenty of room for them to run about.
