Red sandstone cottages converted from barns and farm outbuildings to create five beautiful cottages.

The tranquil, picturesque, unspoilt village of Gamblesby is hidden away beneath the fells of the North Pennines just one mile from the scenic A686 which links Penrith to Northumberland via Alston, England's highest market town.

From Melmerby, where you leave the main road to come to Gamblesby, the road climbs dramatically up the fellside to Hartside viewpoint, 1903 feet above sea level, with spectacular views over the Eden Valley to the mountains of the Lake District and even Southern Scotland.

Gamblesby itself is in the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, which ensures that the village, with it's tinkling stream, wide village greens and wealth of red sandstone buildings will be protected long after it has finally been discovered.
