1 Bed Cottage in Sedbergh

About this property

Perfect for a peaceful countryside escape, this beautifully converted former smithy is a lovely retreat for two, tucked away in the grounds of the owner's farmhouse and surrounded by rolling farmland and scenic views. Just a mile from the market town of Sedbergh and close to the banks of the River Rawthay, this single-storey hideaway comes complete with its own bubbling hot tub in the private garden.

Inside, this thoughtfully styled cottage has a warm, welcoming feel. The open-plan living space combines comfort and character with a soft sofa, Smart TV, and a wood burner set into a rustic stone fireplace for cosy evenings in. There’s a dining table for two and a well-equipped kitchen for relaxed self-catering. The restful king-size bedroom offers a great night’s sleep after a day outdoors, while the adjoining shower room provides a refreshing start to the day. Outside, the private patio is enclosed by drystone walls and overlooks the surrounding fields, where you might spot the farm’s resident cattle, sheep, or donkeys. Dine alfresco in the fresh air or sink into the hot tub and soak up the views. There’s also access to a shared utility room with laundry facilities and a dog shower – handy if you’re bringing a four-legged friend. Parking for one car is available on the shared driveway. Please note that children are not permitted, and the friendly farm dogs and chickens roam freely across the grounds.

Step outside, and you'll find miles of gentle walking and cycling routes with breathtaking views around every corner. Sedbergh, known for its independent shops, historic buildings and traditional pubs, promises a warm welcome and a touch of local charm. A little further afield, the scenic Dentdale Valley leads to the pretty village of Dent (6.5 miles).
