Upstairs follows an unconventional and unique design of glass walls centring the church. There are two en-suite kingsize bedrooms and a further two double bedrooms sharing a family bathroom.
St Margaret’s Church is located just off the main high street in the village, making it an easy walk to access the shops, restaurants and pubs Bentham has to offer. There are some fabulous walks to be enjoyed straight from the front door. If, however, you plan to do some more adventurous hiking, then Ingleton is just 3 miles away and the three peaks of Whernside, Pen-y-Ghent, Ingleborough, and the Lakeland hills are all easily accessed.
The station opposite the house grants accessibility to all, whether that is to the coast, in to the Yorkshire Dales or to Leeds and Manchester.
There is so much to do in this area from cycling, caving, hiking and golfing! Just 10 miles away in the neighbouring town of Kirkby Lonsdale. This quirky market town is surrounded by historic buildings, many of them hundreds of years old, that line the town’s streets and squares include a range of cafés, pubs, and independent shops, which combine to provide a traditional shopping experience that’s hard to find on the modern British high street.
Whether it’s 4 miles to Ingleton, 10 to Kirby in Lonsdale or 12 to Settle, St Margaret’s Church is the perfect base from which to explore southern and central Cumbria, the Yorkshire Dales National Park, Forest of Bowland and Lancashire, with lots to do locally and plenty of excellent days out.
