Matt
Bring the whole family to Church House, a beautiful old farmhouse with lots of room for fun. With spacious living areas and lovely bedrooms, it's a wonderful place to stay whatever the weather. There's also a large garden with incredible views across the Eden Valley to the Pennines and Lakeland Fells. The property was recently upgraded with the addition of a large, sky-lit dining space that makes it a superb location for entertaining.
Matt is originally from the North of England and a long-term lover of the Lake District. He's delighted to be able to welcome guests to visit this incredible region.
Skelton is a delightful little (population: 1,153) working village located just outside the Lake District National Park. The village is surrounded by picturesque fields full of sheep, horses, and cows. The village pub - The Dog & Gun Inn - has put Skelton on the nation's culinary map when it was (rightly) awarded a Michelin star in 2022. Church House is located on the edge of the village, next to the 700 years old St Michael's Church. Getting to Skelton from elsewhere in the UK requires wheels of some kind, whether two or four. Once here, driving offers the opportunity to quickly gain access even the most far-flung corners of the Lake District and north Pennines. That said, there are a number of wonderful walks in the surrounding countryside direct from Church House's doorstep. For cyclists, this area of Cumbria is a cycling wonderland, with quiet, gently rolling roads dotted with quaint villages and mountain backdrops.
