Stepping in from the entrance lobby the large open sitting room with log burner links to the dining room and kitchen and the second sitting room. There’s a lovely flow connecting the ground floor so that everyone can have their own space without being totally cut off, perfect for groups, families and children.

Furnishings are a mix of contemporary pieces, vintage finds and lots of interesting conversation starters too! Comfy sofas to curl up on, cosy corners by the windows for losing yourself in a good book, handy tables dotted around for impromptu board games, and there’s even a cocktail bar for pre- supper drinks (or just anytime drinks!)

There are two large sitting rooms, a dining room with a large dining table seating up to 16 and a beautiful kitchen sprawling across the ground floor, making the Hall the perfect place for gathering. With beautiful views from the windows all around of the Howgill Fells you really feel immersed in nature.

The large dining space is perfect for gathering together for a hearty breakfast before a ramble across the fells or for a tasty supper after a day exploring and catching up on everyone’s adventures. Seating upto 16 the long old pine table is open to the spacious kitchen which is well equipped with a range oven, large fridge, freezer, dishwasher and everything you need for your culinary creations! Not forgetting an excellent coffee machine for those wake you up morning coffees!

Eight beautiful bedrooms on the first floor, one on the ground floor, most looking out across the Howgill Fells, imagine waking up to those views! All the bedrooms are en-suite and furnished with soft comfy beds, crisp white linens, and pops of colour in the soft furnishings make for restful bedroom retreats.

If the sun is shining, outside is the place to be, step out to the south-facing terrace and into the garden with mature trees and rolling lawns, take in the beautiful views overlooking the fells. Make the most of warmer evenings with dining on the terrace and with a barbecue and fire pit you have everything you need for cooking up tasty suppers or long lunches.
