Situated in the heart of the Lune Valley, mid way between the Yorkshire Dales and the Lake District is the attractive market town of Kirkby Lonsdale. This charming and historic town was mentioned in the 1086 Domesday Book and holds a market charter from the 13th Century. This market continues on a weekly basis every Thursday and offers a perfect opportunity for visitors to explore the variety of distinctive shops in the town as well as the many 17th and 18th Century buildings. The picturesque Lune Valley was popular with the artist Turner and is host to the medieval Devil's Bridge that spans the river. There is a wealth of quiet country lanes in the area that are ideal for exploring by car, bike or even on horseback.

Susan
was not keen on the narrow roads getting to the cottage but got the hang of them eventually the rooms were quite airy and clean the cooking utensil's were a bit well used and could have done with more pans and baking trays for the oven the shower head's could have done with replacing as they were rusty and had lime scale on them but other than those few thing our stay was fantastic and would recommend and stay again in the future there are many places within the area to go and see and things for all kinds of families from young to the elderly

Reassuring to know that the owners were on hand to sort out any problems quickly and efficiently. We were 3 ladies wanting somewhere we could relax and catch up with each others busy lives and we were able to do just that in comfort at Beckside. Your phone call Angie was very much appreciated.
