There's a wonderfully relaxed, sociable feel here with plenty of space for everyone to spread out and a beautiful new kitchen – although if you prefer to be catered for this is entirely possible and the owners can give you the contact details of some good local chefs
You'll find a welcome hamper of freshly-baked sourdough, a jar of award-winning marmalade plus homemade cakes and biscuits. On sunny days, spill out into the gardens with mature trees and smooth lawns, join the Coast-to-Coast path for serious walking and biking or hop on the wonderfully scenic Carlisle to Settle railway.
This is a much quieter part of the county yet you can get to everything easily. Smardale nature reserve is on your doorstep and Kirkby Stephen is about seven miles away for stocking up. Return to deep comfort, dark skies, a barbecue and a fire pit.

Local points of interest from Peter Jaques-Walker:
Points d'intérêt locaux proposés par
Peter Jaques-Walker:
- We are within the newly extended Yorkshire Dales National Park, and well placed for day trips into the Lake District. We are just ten minutes from Junction 38 (Tebay) on the M6, making us the ideal stop off to break up long journeys.
- We are a 2 mile walk from the village of Ravenstonedale, which boasts two cosy pubs, both serving excellent food.We overlook the Howgill Fells - the perfect place to go walking in splendid isolation, with only the wild fell ponies for company.
- Two classic long distance footpaths – the Coast to Coast and the Dales High Way - run right past Brownber Hall. If you don’t fancy dragging all your spare clothes around, there are a number of bag carrying companies who can do the hard work for you!
- Our favourite walk right from the front door (about a 2 hour round trip) is through the Smardale Gill Nature Reserve to the Smardale Gill Viaduct. This is a real hidden treasure, tucked away in a secluded valley holding sights of historical interest.
- Road cyclists can explore the network of quiet lanes surrounding the house, which lead to some fantastic routes and some more challenging climbs, such as Tan Hill or the Lakes & Dales Loop. We can provide safe storage for bikes in the basement.
- We are one of the darkest sky areas in England, which provides great opportunities for star gazing – particularly up on the fell behind the Hall. Rusty the red squirrel is a regular unofficial guest at Brownber Hall. He usually likes to put on a good show
