This byre conversion is a semi-detached cottage attached to the owner’s farmhouse which dates back to 1668. Set in picturesque gardens and surrounded by countryside, this two-bedroom property sleeps three guests across two floors. You will be located in an AONB, with the Forest of Bowland (15 miles) and the Yorkshire Dales (19 miles) both available to explore, but you’ll also be able to spot birdlife, kingfisher and pheasants alongside the pretty stream in the garden. Take a trip on the famous Settle to Carlisle Railway (10 miles) or ride the many mountain bike trails nearby at Gisburn Forest (3 miles). Staying on two wheels, you could head south 11.5 miles to Clitheroe and take part in a motorcycle tour of the Ribble Valley, or head north 15 miles to Malham Cove for a spectacular Yorkshire walk, taking in Janet's Foss waterfall, Gordale Scar and Malham Tarn.

The cottage has retained some of its original features and is ideal for those who love the outdoors, with plenty of activities close by and walks and bridle paths from the doorstep. Enter the front door into the conservatory with its comfortable seating, before moving through to the lounge/diner where you can sit down again, either at the dining table or in the armchairs. The kitchen is next and has everything you need to make a delicious meal for three. Completing this floor is a shower room. Stairs from the lounge/diner lead you up to two bedrooms: a double which has steps up to a wardrobe, and a single. The family bathroom is also on this level.

Outside, you will be surrounded by well-established gardens which leads down to a stream with bridge over to small seating area. There is garden furniture available for enjoying a bite to eat alfresco.
