Kirkby Lonsdale itself is a historic, quaint market town with a growing reputation for high quality independent shopping, as well as excellent restaurants, cafés and bars. The town is notably home to the 14th century Devil’s Bridge, as well as Ruskin’s View. With so much to see and do in the area, you can choose to keep yourself busy or perhaps simply relax and enjoy the peace and beauty that Kirkby Lonsdale has to offer.

Ingleton, set within the Yorkshire Dales National Park, is a 20-minute drive away. If you’re feeling energetic, join the famous waterfalls trail or explore the Whitescar Caves.

    Just returned from a superb 2 night stay at Hillside House in Kirkby Lonsdale..... 6 adults & 2 toddlers and there was certainly ample room for all. The house was pristine clean with great location in the village & everything is only few minutes walk away. The house is period/countryside decorated with everything provided for a great stay. All the adults gave it a 5/5 & one toddler gave it a 6/5 ! Wouldn't hesitate rebooking. Thanks for allowing us to stay. P.s. The coffee snob amongst us highly recommends the Kirkby Lonsdale Brewery coffee & breakfast.
