The milking parlour was originally a working dairy milking parlour and converted into a cottage in the early 2000’s & renovated in 2021. It is now a cosy cottage with one double bedroom, a shower room, kitchen and a living room with beautiful views across open fields. There is underfloor heating throughout as well as a wood burning stove in the living room. The cottage is all on one level with ramp access and can accommodate 2 people and you’re more than welcome to bring up to 2 dogs (subject to an additional fee of £20 per dog). The property has an enclosed private garden with a patio and lawned area. The milking parlour also comes with a private hot tub for guests to enjoy, which is perfect for stargazing. The garden backs onto open farmland that is regularly grazed by a flock of sheep. The garden is a popular haunt for various garden birds, pheasants and woodpeckers. The Milking Parlour is a 20 minute walk from the town of Alston with its dog friendly pubs, cafes and shops. It's in the centre of the North pennines AONB and make a great base for exploring Cumbria, the lake district, Northumberland, and County Durham.
