About this property

Bretherdale Hall

Bretherdale Hall is a former farmhouse, that has been lovingly refurbished using local materials throughout and it now perfectly blends the characterful features with modern fixtures and fittings where guests can enjoy the rural setting and far-reaching countryside views.Guests enter through the porch into the spacious lounge with large, comfortable sofas and an incredible wood-burning stove in the inglenook fireplace. The TV comes with Netflix, Amazon Prime Video and a DVD player. Guests are provided with a starter pack of logs and kindling but there's underfloor central heating if lighting the log burner is too adventurous!The kitchen comes well stocked with all the items required to cook a big meal. The Rayburn cooker is complemented with a conventional, built-in electric oven and hob and there's a fridge/freezer and dishwasher too. There's a washing machine and tumble drier and handy downstairs WC in the utility room.The dining area comfortably seats eight people, and the patio doors lead out onto the garden and are ideal for al fresco dining in the summer months. Outside, there is a BBQ provided for guests to use.All of the bedrooms are located on the first floor. The master bedroom has a king size bed with stairs leading to a separate dressing area and spacious ensuite with a walk-in shower and bath.
