Sunnybrook Cottage is a delightful retreat situated on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales in Lower Bentham, North Yorkshire.

Perfect for families or groups of friends, this charming abode offers off-road parking for two cars and welcomes two well-behaved dogs, with the enchanting steam train passing nearby.

Upon entering the cottage, you will be greeted by an inviting sitting room, boasting a stone mullioned fireplace with a woodburning stove set within it, perfect for those chilly evenings.

Sink into the plush corner sofa and enjoy a movie night on the Smart TV, surrounded by charming exposed beams that add a touch of character to the room, as you wind down for the evening.

The kitchen/diner is homely with tiled flooring and oak fixtures and is well-equipped for all your culinary needs, featuring a utility room with a microwave and washer/dryer for your convenience.

Here, you can prepare delicious meals on the range cooker to be enjoyed at the dining table, creating memories with your loved ones.

When the night draws in, retire to one of the two welcoming bedrooms.

The double bedroom showcases an exposed brick wall and a window seat, where you can curl up with a good book, while the twin bedroom is adorned with beams, adding a rustic charm to the room.

Both rooms are served by a sleek bathroom, complete with a roll-top bath for a relaxing soak, a walk-in shower, a basin, a heated towel rail, and a WC.

Outside, the garden offers a serene space where you can unwind, featuring a lawn, a patio, and furniture for alfresco dining.

A barbecue is also available for those warm summer evenings, light up the coal as the river gently flows past, and a garage provides secure storage for your belongings.

Start your adventures by setting off on foot to the picturesque Ingleton Waterfalls Trail, a must-visit attraction, known for its stunning views and breathtaking walks that will leave even the most experienced hikers mesmerised.

Descend beneath the earth's surface at the Ingleborough Cave, a remarkable pothole with awe-inspiring ancient formations open to the public.

Unveil extraordinary stalactites and stalagmites, and trace the path of ancient underground rivers.

Behind every turning of your holiday at Sunnybrook Cottage lies an unforgettable experience.

A short drive in the other direction is the market town of Kirkby Lonsdale.

The town is home to the famous 14th-century Devil’s Bridge and the picture-perfect viewpoint ‘Ruskin’s View’.

Kirkby is becoming increasingly popular for its independent shops and you will be spoilt for choice for places to eat and drink.

If a pub crawl is your thing, Kirkby is the place to go!

For a step back in time, embark on a short drive to Lancaster Castle, where history enthusiasts can delve into the fascinating past of this ancient monument and take part in a guided tour uncovering the secrets of its tenure.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.

BENTHAM, YORKSHIRE

Ingleton 3.5 miles; Kirkby Lonsdale 8.4 miles; Morecambe 16.8 miles

Positioned just west of the Yorkshire Dales, on the northern fringes of the Forest of Bowland, this lovely town is split into High Bentham and Low Bentham, with the babbling River Wenning running between the two. The town boasts an annual agricultural show, with handicraft, horticulture and livestock competitions, which dates back to the 19th century. In addition to this is the annual Carnival and funfair, entertaining a thriving community with workshops, music and many fundraising events. High Bentham has an array of public houses and eateries to choose from, and the railway station sits on the Leeds to Morecambe line. For walking enthusiasts, there are colour coded circular trails of different lengths and capabilities, right on the doorstep. The neighbouring village of Ingleton offers some wonderful caves and tumbling waterwalls, along with a year-round climbing wall and a good range of shops, pubs and places to eat. Enjoy a trip out to Morecambe Bay with your bucket and spade, where you can fly your kites, build sandcastles or simply take a stroll along the promenade. For more independent shops and restaurants, the town of Kirkby Lonsdale is only a short drive away, with access to Ruskin's View. Take the footpath from the churchyard at St. Mary's Church and follow the trail high about the River Lune, where you can marvel at a panorama of the Lune Valley and Underley Hall. A wonderful location for exploring National Parks, Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the North West coastline.
