  • "Photos don’t do the property justice."

    Absolutely incredible & the swimming pool leisure suite is a real treat. We felt like we had the luxury of staying in a hotel but just ourselves. Diane is an excellent host, lots of treats left. Thank you.

    Thank you very much for your fantastic feedback. Good to hear you all enjoyed your stay especially the amazing leisure facilities! Property Owner

    Great facilities so even when the weather isn’t great it doesn’t matter. Rooms comfortable and clean. Views incredible! We hope to return for a third trip!

  • "The house was beautiful and perfect for our family getaway."

    We took my mum (with late stage Alzheimer’s) and dad (who has mobility issues) and both were very comfortable in the ground floor bedroom and at the large dining table with room for everyone. My sister has 9 children ranging from age 7-20, and they enjoyed using the facilities, especially the swimming pool and playing in the grounds. We would’ve like to have stayed longer! My daughter is training to be a chef, so she was cooking for everyone. The kitchen was amazing and had everything she needed. Utensils and equipment were all high end and we had everything we needed. The beds were very comfortable and towels and bedding were clean and very good quality. We had a lovely time. Some of the TVs had remotes missing. We found a sock and power bank behind furniture when we were looking for the remotes!

  • "High Fellside is a beautiful property in a stunning location which is immaculately presented."

    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!

    Thank you ever so much for your absolutely fantastic feedback. It was really good to hear you thought High fellside Hall was one of the best places you have stayed! Its important to us that guests are made to feel welcome. As is good communication before , during after a stay. Property Owner

  • "Absolutely stunning house."

    Beautiful location, well set out, with great space in every room to relax. We were a team of 16 colleagues and the sleeping arrangements were great, ensuring everyone had their own space! We found that we didn't want to leave the property (apart for a gentle walk), as the facilities were fantastic and we enjoyed making use of the pool/jacuzzi/steam room and sauna! Great communication with the host, and the neighbours (young lambs with their mothers) were just the cutest thing to see each morning. Would highly recommend.

    Thank you very much Kathryn for your fantastic feedback. Wonderful to hear you all enjoyed the property and its space and great facilities. It is lovely to wake up and enjoy seeing the sheep, lambs and the stunning scenery from every window to. Thank you for recommending. It would be great if you where to stay again in the future.

  • "The house more than met our needs as a large group including 7 young children of various ages."

    The indoor pool was the main feature for us - to have it within the property itself was amazing. We didn’t 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.

    Thank you very much for taking the time to write your fantastic feedback. Great to hear that everyone enjoyed and made use of the pool. I appreciate you letting me know that I need to replenish some of the kitchen equipment. It's good that you managed to do some walks from the house. Especially when the weather wasn't great for your stay. Enjoying the scenery and of course the cute lambs! I always ensure I deal with any issues that should arise asap. And I'm glad that the issues where dealt with and resolved quickly for you. I look forward to maybe welcoming you back to High fellside hall in the future. Property Owner

The property

Sedbergh 3.5 miles.

High Fellside Hall, a magnificent, detached farmhouse, with its own private leisure centre, is set in its own grounds on a high hillside above the Lune Valley, just three and a half miles from Sedbergh and ten miles from Kirkby Lonsdale.

A most enviable location with five acres of its own grounds, direct access to open and dramatic moorland including Barbon Fell and magnificent all-round views of this beautiful corner of the Yorkshire Dales National Park.

Transformed in 2008 from a former farmhouse, no expense was spared in creating this three-storey holiday home, with high tech installations throughout, integrated sound systems, sophisticated lighting systems, modern building techniques, underfloor heating throughout and the latest in solar power which all go together to provide a holiday home of considerable merit.

Featuring a first-class purpose-built leisure facility which takes up the whole of the lower ground floor.

Again, little expense has been spared in setting up this first-rate facility which includes a fabulous fifteen metre heated swimming pool, a separate steam room and sauna, a built in sunken seven-seater Jacuzzi and a spiral staircase leads down to a small yoga/pilates area.

The whole area is detailed with a polished stone tiled surround with a delightful seating area, a reflective bespoke ceiling, integrated lighting systems and the full-length windows afford excellent views across the Lune valley.

The main entrance leads through into a generously proportioned kitchen, fitted to a very high specification with polished granite worktops, limestone tiling, a Rangemaster 3 cooker with gas hob and hot plate, Belfast sink and adjoining pantry with impressive drinks fridge.

The adjoining dining room enjoys twin French doors out onto a south facing sun terrace.

A large space able to seat the group in comfort and an ideal location to enjoy a sumptuous, cooked meal, relax and take in the wonderful views.

An open hallway with full length windows, a beautiful limestone floor and gallery leads guests through to a comfortable snug with stylish furniture, a welcoming wood-burner and patio doors leading out onto the main south facing patio area.

A great spot to open a bottle of your favourite tipple and catch up with old friends.

The main living area, which is of generous proportion with a fine feature carved stone fire surround fitted with a multi-fuel stove, beautiful oak flooring, a piano for the talented ones in the group and a range of stylish furnishings to create a great space to sit and relax after a hard day’s walking on the nearby moorland.

On the first floor there are six impeccably-designed bedrooms, all with wonderful far reaching views, a feature Juliet balcony in one, old beams, oak flooring and luxurious en-suites, whilst the ground floor bedroom has an adjoining shower room making it the perfect choice for anyone with limited mobility.

The main house bathroom boasts a free-standing slipper bath and separate wet room shower facility.

A useful boot room provides a good drying area, a utility area with washer dryer, a useful basin and there is a cloakroom in the main galleried hallway.

Outside, there is a spacious parking area, formal gardens, three separate seating areas providing havens of peace and quiet and lovely lawned areas to enjoy a picnic whilst admiring the 360-degree views, watching the local farmers tending their cattle and spring lambs.

Ideal for discovering Wainwright's beloved Howgills, the nearby Cautley Spout, Britain's highest waterfall, and dramatic Dentdale, while the local area is home to many varieties of wildlife including buzzards and deer.

The small town of Sedbergh, home to the much-loved Farfield Mill Art Gallery and your local amenities including a convenience store, pubs and restaurants, and the attractive market town of Kirkby Lonsdale are a short drive away, whilst the Lune Valley, the fascinating White Scar Cave, Ingleton Waterfalls Walk and Wensleydale creamery are all within easy reach of both the Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales National Parks.

About the location

SEDBERGH

Kendal 11.5 miles; Kirkby Lonsdale 11.8 miles, Hawes 15.8 miles.

The attractive old market town of Sedbergh (pronounced Sed-Ber), with its old-world atmosphere, is not only set in the magnificent western dales of the Yorkshire Dales National Park but is also close to the rugged eastern fells of the Lake District. The town, with its narrow streets, little shops, traditional pubs, famous school dating back to 1525 and its 12th century church, has been a thriving community for hundreds of years, with a market dating from the 13th Century. Leading from Sedbergh is Dentdale, the jewel of the Yorkshire Dales with its rolling hills and dry-stone walls, stretching 14 miles from the windswept moors below Whernside to the confluence of the Rivers Dee and Rawthey. At the centre of the dale is Dent, with its cobbled streets, which has existed since Norman times and nearby Dent railway station is on the renowned Settle-Carlisle railway line. There are three golf courses nearby, as well as tennis, riding, and fishing, and the area is a paradise for walkers, ramblers, runners, and cyclists. This, together with the tranquillity of the surrounding valleys, the two National Parks and it being England's book town, makes an ideal year-round holiday destination.
