About this property

Calf Close Cottage: a rural retreat, dog-friendly, eco-friendly

Calf Close Cottage is situated at the edge of the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. This lovely rural single storey semi-detached cottage is beautiful, spacious, bright, cosy and well maintained.

Calf Close Cottage is set in the grounds of a 6-acre small holding. This roomy one bedroom self-catering cottage provides accommodation for two adults and one well behaved dog. An occasional couple with a small baby has also enjoyed a holiday here. The cottage offers plenty of room to relax after an active day outdoors and excellent facilities for cooking your meals should you choose to do so.

Super-king bed can be converted into twins on request. Baby travel cot is available on request. There is a good selection of books, CDs and DVDs if you decide to spend time curled up in front of the wood burning stove.

This holiday cottage is perfect for those looking for a romantic and peaceful retreat. It is also suitable for people requiring wheelchair access. A beautiful, large private fenced-in garden allows for making the most of this idyllic area as well as keeping your canine friend safe. If you have more than one dog, please contact us, we are happy to consider your request.

Linen and towels are provided. Wi-Fi access is provided. There is a dedicated parking space right next to the cottage. The property is suitable for wheelchair use.

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
I live with my family next door to the cottage, so am able to address any questions immediately, but otherwise stay out of the way. I am a glass artist working exclusively with recycled glass. You can see my work on my web site rakitacraft.co.uk. I am also a small holder: we have a large fruit and vegetable garden and an orchard. We also keep chickens. As a welcome gift we leave our guests eggs laid by our lovely hens along with homemade jams produced with our own berries. We share seasonal veg surplus with our guest if they are interested.

Why they chose this property

We lived in big cities most of our lives, London being last and wanted to move to the countryside, grow our own food, enjoy hill walks and cycling.

What makes this property unique

Calf Close Cottage is positioned conveniently for exploring a variety of destinations. Lake District National Park, Scottish Borders, Hadrian's Wall, Solway Firth and the city of Carlisle are all within easy driving distance. And the local fells are a well-kept secret. High moorland to the south of Farlam provides mile upon mile of rugged and lonely walking, or even mountain biking for the adventurous. More information is available on our web site.
