The Space:

The Space:

Set among the fells, Rigg End is a 16th-century Farmhouse that pairs Nordic restraint with bold, joyful character. Four bedrooms sleep eight: three super-kings and a king, with a mezzanine suite and freestanding bath, and three sitting rooms, each with a wood burner, mean can always gather around. The kitchen and long island are made for cooking together; the days for walking it off on the surrounding hills. Outside, a hot tub and barbecue take in the rolling Dales, and the evenings settle into fire, food and easy company. Kirkby Stephen is 10 minutes away, Lake District 30. This is a house for food, fire and shared time.

The Neighborhood:

Located just 10 minutes from Kirkby Stephen, The Farmhouse sits inside the Yorkshire Dales National Park with sweeping views of the countryside and just 30 minutes from The Lake District. The area offers long walks, cycling routes, and real seclusion while still being close to shops, pubs, and scenic towns.



Getting Around:

A car is highly recommended for exploring the beauty of the region.

Rigg End Farmhouse sits in the upper Eden Valley on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, 10 minutes from the market town of Kirkby Stephen and 30 minutes from the Lake District. This is walking country: the smooth, green Howgill Fells, the heights of Wild Boar Fell, and Smardale Gill nature reserve with its great stone viaduct are all close, while the celebrated Settle–Carlisle railway threads dramatic scenery nearby. Sedbergh, England’s book town, and a scattering of dale villages with old stone pubs are within easy reach. Days are for the fells, the rivers and the views; evenings for the fire and the hot tub, with the Dales all around.
