This is a lovely apartment for a couple, located in the small market town of Kirby Stephen, an excellent base from which to explore this peaceful area of the North Pennines.
“The apartment is in a historic building but inside is modern and comfortable with well planned facilities. The kitchen/living area is well equipped for cooking, eating and relaxing. The bed is comfortable and the area is quiet, ensuring a good night's sleep. The owners are helpful and local. We felt very welcome.
The apartment is close to the town centre, which has good facilities; pubs, cafes, takeaways, shops and a supermarket. It is also next to Frank's Bridge, a peaceful area by the river and a starting point for several walks.”
