Kirkbride Hall, located in Penrith, Cumbria, is a welcoming accommodation option in the North of England, ideal for families or groups of up to eight guests. Nestled near the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this property offers a peaceful retreat with the added benefit of being pet-friendly and close to local amenities, including a nearby pub. The setting is particularly attractive, as it was once the orchard of Melmerby Hall, providing a tranquil environment surrounded by nature.

Completed in early 2015, Kirkbride Hall combines modern comforts with traditional Cumbrian cottage aesthetics. The property features sandstone walls crafted from locally sourced stone, solid oak flooring, and antique furnishings that enhance its rustic charm.

Furthermore, guests enjoy private gated access to the expansive 20 acres of mixed woodland grounds of Melmerby Hall, which includes scenic woodland paths, picturesque water meadows, and a tributary of the River Eden, enhancing the overall experience of staying at Kirkbride Hall.

For larger gatherings, Kirkbride Hall is part of a collection of accommodations within the grounds of Melmerby Hall, which can host up to 18 guests in total. This arrangement is particularly suited for families wanting to stay close together while still enjoying their own space, with Stag Cottage, which accommodates four guests, located nearby.
