A charming and comfortably-furnished 400-year old terraced stone cottage, just a short walk from the centre of Alston, the highest market town in England, and the centre of five historic Pennine routes.
The cottage is traditional and welcoming, with exposed beams, an inglenook fireplace and a warming woodburner-effect gas stove, and is ideal for a romantic break.
Alston retains its traditional character, including a selection of pubs with open fires and real ales just a short walk from the cottage.
There are walks onto the moors from the cottage, and the Pennine Way passes through the town, which is also on the C2C Cycle Route.
With plenty of places to visit within an hour by car, including Hadrian's Wall, Beamish Open Air Museum, Durham Cathedral and the Lake District, this is a superb Alston cottage for a relaxing break.

The perfect home from home, warm, very comfortable (lovely large sleigh bed) with everything you need for time away. The instructions to access the cottage and set the heating were spot on and much appreciated, parking available right outside the door, 100m to the centre of this lovely little town, will definately look to return.
Very good

A very cosy cottage in a central location near the shops but quietly tucked away in a conservation area. The cottage was spotless clean and has good facilities. Pleasant good sized bathroom. Small kitchen but adequate. Very good TV and comfortable sofas. Lovely country walk nearby.
