Darcy House, Kirkby Lonsdale

Darcy House3 bedrooms, Sleeps 5.

Georgian character runs right through Darcy House, from old oak beams and window shutters to Victorian hand-painted wallpaper in the hall. This Grade II listed house sits in the centre of Kirkby Lonsdale and feels well suited to guests who want their stay to have a sense of place rather than a standard holiday-rental look. Antiques and carefully chosen furnishings give it a more collected, lived-in feel, while the snug with its gas wood burner offers a cosier alternative to the main sitting room.

For a family or a small group of friends, the spread of rooms is useful as well as unusual. The dining room is on the lower ground floor, with French doors opening to the garden, while the three bedrooms are arranged over the upper floors, including one on the second floor with some limited headroom. It sleeps 5 in 3 bedrooms, with 3 bathrooms in total, and the town’s pubs, shops and places to eat are within easy reach on foot. From here, trips into the Yorkshire Dales also come naturally.
