Sedbergh is a town in northern Dentdale. It is in the Yorkshire Dales National Park and is 12 miles from the Lake District National Park. The town, with its narrow streets, shops, pubs, school dating back to 1525 and its 12th century church, has an olde worlde atmosphere. Leading from Sedbergh is Dentdale, with its hills and stone walls, stretching 14 miles from Whernside to the confluence of the Rivers Dee and Rawthey.

The indoor pool was the main feature for us - to have it within the property itself was amazing. We didnât have great weather, so we used the pool a lot, sometimes twice a day. The size of the pool was perfect and having so many inflatable toys to choose from was a treat for the kids (and us adults!). The kitchen was fully equipped for a large group and we cooked, and baked, every day (maybe another sieve and large colander to be provided would be my only suggestion). The welcome box of treats was also a lovely treat and gesture, which we appreciated. The rooms were laid out well and having such beautiful views of the surrounding landscape, with the lambs and sheep, were breathtaking. We also went on a few walks from the house with the children and they loved seeing the lambs up close. The owner was very responsive to my queries before our stay and also when we had a few issues on the first day. Someone came to rectify the issues straight away. I fully recommend this house and I hope one day we will return.

We have stayed in a number of feature properties across the country over the years and I would genuinely say this is the best one yet. The facilities were perfect for a large group and the attention to detail to cater for a large parties was very well thought through. The owners of the property made the stay perfect - great communication, friendly and welcoming. Thank you!
Tracy
Amazing location with lovely views and fresh air. Amazing facilities, really relaxing place. The pool was absolutely brilliant and we loved it and we were all very chilled. I would recommend this place for anybody wanting to have a celebration with friends and family, or just go because you can and enjoy it, was brilliant.
