Overview
East Calvert House is a gorgeous family cottage with fantastic south-facing views of Swaledale.
The cottage has all the conveniences of home, with a feel for luxurious comfort and dales character combined. The cottage is in a rural setting and south-facing, so is flooded with sunshine all day long, and the enclosed patio to the front is also sunny.
The living and dining rooms are spacious and ooze atmosphere, with traditional beamed and boarded ceilings and stone flagged floors. The living room has a 40″ smart TV and an open fire, all coal included.
The roomy main bedroom has a comfy kingsize bed and lovely views over the dale, as has the twin bedroom. The kitchen, bathroom and shower rooms are all newly fitted, making it easy to relax in luxury after a day’s rambling from the door. Note, PERSONAL TOWELS ARE NOT INCLUDED.
You’ll love to sit in the garden with a glass of wine and admire the beauty of Swaledale spread out as far as the eye can see. A perfect holiday in beautiful Swaledale! Week bookings run from FRIDAY to FRIDAY.
