Gorgeous Georgian family friendly property, central Kirkby Lonsdale with parking and EV charger
A delightful Grade II Listed Georgian townhouse which has been sympathetically refurbished to blend beautiful character features and modern comforts. Located just off the Market Square, it`s ideal for exploring the wonderful market town of Kirkby Lonsdale or as a base for venturing into the Lakes, the Dales, or beyond. Whether you`re seeking outdoor adventure, fabulous market town shopping or just looking to kick back and relax, Main Street has what you`re looking for!
We take great pride in providing the very best holiday experience for our guests and have decorated and equipped the property to the highest modern standards, whilst still preserving its Georgian charm.
The Property: You will enter the property via the bright, glass ceilinged dining room with a 32` Samsung TV (equipped with a Now stick) and a wifi booster providing powerful Sky broadband throughout the property. Please note that there are also USB sockets in all rooms. There`s plenty of seating at the large farmhouse style dining table. This then leads you up to the fully equipped kitchen, ready for any adventurous cooks in your party. It is equipped with a microwave, double oven, ceramic hob, fridge/freezer, dishwasher (a few dishwasher pods are provided) and washer/dryer (a few laundry pods provided) and also contains a wood burner (no wood is provided but this can easily be purchased locally). The kitchen then leads through to the Lounge equipped with another wood burner, Sky Glass TV, Blu-ray/DVD player and an Amp/CD player. On the first floor you will find a large bedroom with twin beds (these can be joined together to make a super king) and a family bathroom with bath, mains shower, toilet, basin and towel radiator. The second floor has two bedrooms with king sized beds and a shower room with toilet and basin.
Guest Verification and Good Housekeeping Bond or Waiver: Once your booking is confirmed, we request a contact email address, mobile phone number and a photo of a Government ID as part of the guest verification process. Also, to encourage all guests to respect the property and its contents, we ask for a refundable Good Housekeeping Bond of £400 to be placed as a hold against a card by your card issuer, or alternatively, we allow guests to pay a non-refundable £40 Bond Waiver. Completing these two steps is mandatory as it allows access to your personalised Boarding Pass which provides all the details for your stay, advice about activities, electronic manuals, directions to the property and the latest key safe code. This Boarding Pass is provided in conjunction with Enso Connect.
The Area: Only six miles from the M6 and conveniently located for access to both the Yorkshire Dales and Lake District national parks, the ancient market town of Kirkby Lonsdale is famous for its hospitality. With a variety of restaurants, cafés, takeaways, lively pubs selling award-winning and locally brewed ales and the famous Lunesdale Bakery right in its centre. There are many other award-winning pubs and restaurants dotted around the surrounding countryside, some of which get booked up very quickly, so we advise you secure your reservation as soon as possible. Along with its many and varied shops, Kirkby boasts a branch of the amazing northern supermarket, Booths, selling both the finest picks of local produce and all your familiar supermarket brands and open until 10pm every night and 4pm on Sunday.
Transport Links: Although Kirkby Lonsdale is surrounded by the green countryside typical of the South Lakes and Dales, it is well connected to local transport. There are mainline railway stations at Lancaster, 16 miles away and Kendal (Oxenholme), 13 miles away. The M6 junctions 35 and 36 are within 6 miles and the A65 from Kendal to Skipton runs right past the town. There is a regular bus service (the 567) between Kirkby Lonsdale and the lovely town of Kendal and services 80 and 81 from the City of Lancaster and continuing up to Ingleton in North Yorkshire. Kirkby Lonsdale is often used as a base for cycling tours into the surrounding countryside and the truly spectacular Yorkshire Dales National Park.
Parking and EV Charging: There is parking in the shared courtyard for one car. This is accessed via a width and height restricted cobbled archway from Market Square. Please note that the archway is not suitable for some SUV`s, vans or wide vehicles (wider than 2.08m inc mirrors). It is your responsibility to ensure the access is suitable for your vehicle. Further paid parking can be found in the Market Square, at Booths Supermarket or in the New Road Car Park. Jo & Richard have just installed an EV charger for your convenience. The charger is located on the wall beside the property`s parking space. It is `untethered` and requires a type 2, 7kw single phase charging cable which is not supplied. Electricity will be supplied at 37p/kwh and will be calculated at the end of your stay via their `myenergi` app. Alternative charging points are also available at the local Booth`s supermarket approximately 3 minutes drive from the property. Please notify us if you intend to use the EV charger during your stay so we can share the charger`s PIN number with you.
Bike Storage: A small lockable shed is available which you can use to store your bikes out of the weather. The code for this is in our Guest Manual.
Zip and link beds: The single beds in the twin room can be zipped together to make a super king bed. There is an additional fee of £25 and this can be requested via your Boarding Pass once you have completed the verification steps.

Beautiful house. Well maintained, comfortable and well equipped. Lovely shops in easy walking distance. The kids especially loved the sweet shop, the milking parlour ice cream shop and the book and jigsaw lounges shop.
