The Dovery at Ingmire Hall - Close to the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales

The Dovery is a lovely three-bedroom holiday home, comfortably accommodating up to six guests, that is situated within the grounds of Ingmire Hall on the outskirts of the charming village of Sedbergh, itself steeped in history.

Formally a private residence built around the remains of a pele tower, Ingmire Hall dates back to the 16th century and was enlarged in the early 19th century to form a sprawling private mansion with the extensive gardens we see today. However, in recent years, the mansion was subdivided into privately owned houses and apartments, many of which sit within the original stone walls. As such, the property is of some age and filled with lots of character, including the stone flooring, however the house is centrally heated throughout keeping it warm.

The house spans three floors, with the ground floor occupied by the spacious living room with comfy sofas and armchairs, an electric fire and a Freesat Smart TV. The well-equipped kitchen and dining area is a great space to enjoy a home-cooked meal with friends or family. Of course, if you don't fancy eating in, there is a great choice of pubs and eateries in Sedbergh Village, just two miles away.

Upstairs to the first floor, you'll find the first two bedrooms, a lovely double bedroom with en-suite facilities, a large twin bedroom, and the house bathroom with a separate bath and shower cubicle.

Upstairs again to the second floor, you'll find the third bedroom, a twin bedroom, and the second house bathroom.

Outside is a small garden space, private to The Dovery, with an outdoor table and chairs for six people.

The extensive grounds include vast grassed areas, hidden walkways into the woods, a secret garden and a hidden grotto to explore. There is a shared tennis court for guests to use, although it should be noted that the court surface is in need of some repair. It should also be noted that some grounds and lawns, including the fountain, are private to adjacent properties, so please be mindful about where you explore, paying attention to signage.
