Rooms from £55

Welcome to Stone Head House nr. Lothersdale and Cowling in North Yorkshire. Built in 1596 just off the Pennine Way this beautiful Manor House later served as a working farm and now provides accommodation as a guest house in the small valley of Stone Head near Lothersdale and Cowling. Stone Head House is one of only a handful of properties in the hidden valley of Stone Head Nr. Lothersdale and Cowling all of similar age. Every effort has been made by the owner to restore Stone Head House in an appropriate way. We have chosen to not put televisions in the rooms to keep a sense of 'getting away from it all'. The whole of the downstairs has Flagged floors. Breakfast is cooked on the Aga in the quaint farmhouse kitchen then served in the dining hall with its enormous inglenook fireplace a feature which Stone Head House is well known in the area around Lothersdale. Due to the fact that we are on pumped springwater there can be some noise heard from the pumps whilst in the bedrooms but these are turned off at 21:00 and not turned on until an hour before first breakfast ensuring a good nights sleep in this quirky quaint old dwelling. This only affects the powershowers but nothing else. We feel we offer an excellent luxury bandb service at very reasonable rates. Stone Head House provides great Bed and Breakfast accommodation for walking holidays on the Pennine Way section between Lothersdale and Cowling. Meanwhile nearby the North Yorkshire market town of Skipton the gateway to the Yorkshire Dales last year won 'Best High Street In Britain'.
