Ingleborough Barn

About this property

High Bentham 3 miles. An outstanding detached barn conversion with a hot tub in its own grounds, set just 250 yards from the owner’s home on their working livestock farm in lovely Dales countryside, just three miles from High Bentham in Yorkshire. This first-class barn conversion enjoys an enviable hillside position with breathtaking views of the Three Peaks and fabulous walks in every direction. Styled and furnished to a high standard, this fabulous cottage exudes style and character, with modern appliances including underfloor heating from a biomass heating system and solar panels, combined with old beams and exposed stonework. Set within private, spacious grounds, this is an ideal opportunity for friends and family to get away from it all and enjoy this spectacular location, amongst some of the most beautiful scenery in the Yorkshire Dales. A most unusual and effective layout for a group of friends or large family to benefit from, with the ground floor consisting of two open plan living areas, both boasting individual styling, picture windows to take advantage of the views, woodburning stoves, dining areas and modern well-equipped kitchens with useful utility areas. There are six bedrooms, including two spacious master bedrooms on the ground floor, both with Jack-and-Jill access to facilities (Jack-and-Jill facilities can be accessed from the living areas if required), four first floor bedrooms all served with modern shower rooms and two of the twin rooms can be used as family rooms for three children. Outside, there is a spacious, enclosed patio and lawned area with a luxurious hot tub, ideally located to sit out and once again take in the majestic views on offer. A great place for everyone to relax, have a drink or two and watch the sun go down. For those seeking a country retreat amidst beautiful surroundings, this barn conversion really fits the bill, with the famous Three Peaks of Ingleborough, Whernside and Pen-y-ghent just a short drive away, whilst the largely undiscovered Forest of Bowland stretches away to the south, offering a wide range of unspoilt landscapes to explore. Many challenging walks are available from the doorstep, while the Settle-Carlisle Railway is just four miles away at Clapham and the area is blessed with many fine local pubs serving ales and good food. A great holiday retreat whatever the time of year, so book it now before it’s too late!

The small Yorkshire market town of High Bentham is ideal for exploring the Yorkshire Dales National Park to the north and east, with the Forest of Bowland, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, stretching away to the south. High Bentham is a busy little town with a weekly cattle market, good local shops and services, as well as a good choice of pubs serving food, while the 18-hole golf course is well known for its stunning views and friendly atmosphere.
