Details for Murton House

There is wood burning stove in the main living area for those cooler evenings. The stylish decor and furnishing provide a comfortable and homely atmosphere, yet the cottage retains its rustic character with exposed oak beams and huge barn door window, making it light & airy.

The master double bedroom is upstairs on the mezzanine floor, which looks out over the living area. The second bedroom is downstairs and has bunk beds, and the bottom bunk can be pulled out to make a double bed, if required.

The modern bathroom downstairs has a bath with shower and underfloor heating, sink and WC.

The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need including a combined microwave, cooker and grill, a hob, fridge and all the crockery and cutlery you will ever need.

There is a south facing stone flagged patio area in front of the cottage, with patio furniture, which gets the sun for most of the day - the perfect place to relax with a chilled glass of wine or beer after a hard day's exploring.

We have on-site parking for one car and also secure storage for bicycles. Well behaved dogs are accepted.

The Area: We are surrounded by beautiful open countryside, with nothing to disturb you other than sheep, birds and the odd infrequent walker. This is such an unspoiled, peaceful part of the country. Few places can match the beauty of the Eden Valley.

Eden is the perfect location to try many sporting activities - pony trekking, sailing or canoeing. Cyclists are discovering Eden with its quiet country lanes and ever increasingly popular C2C cycle route.

Appleby Golf Course is literally down the road with stunning views to the Lake District and over to the Yorkshire Dales. Teesdale is just the other side of the fells and is another beautiful part of the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty which is the North Pennines - visit High Force - the highest waterfall in England on the mighty River Tees - or Cow Green Reservoir with stunning views over the North Pennines.
