Countersett Hall, manoir historique, 7 couchages, nr Bainbridge, Askrigg & Hawes | Maison dans Countersett

Surrounded by some of the most beautiful landscapes to be found in the Yorkshire Dales, Countersett Hall is a stunning grade II detached holiday property, nestled in the tiny hamlet of Countersett, perched above the beautiful Lake Semerwater. 5 mins drive from Bainbridge and Askrigg and 10 mins drive from Hawes. There are two double rooms each with king size beds, one twin room with two full size single beds and one single room with full size single bed. Extremely comfortable good quality pocket sprung mattresses and professionally laundered hotel standard linen. There is a recently refurbished family bathroom, shower room and downstairs toilet. Free wifi available, two wood burning stoves and gas central heating, a smart tv with access to Netflix, plus games, books and board games. There is a staircase inside the house and steps between rooms and two short runs of steps to the car park, probably not recommended for people with mobility issues.
The house has a fascinating history. There is a local legend that Mary Queen of Scots stayed at the house one night in 1568, on her way to Bolton Castle. The hall was also home of Richard Robinson, the first Quaker in Wensleydale from the 1650s. Illicit meetings were held in the parlour of the house and George Fox, the founder of the Quaker movement, stayed at the house in 1652 and 1677. During major updates in the 1970s, archaeologists discovered a dwelling on the site from as early as the 12th Century. The house has a wonderfully calm, welcoming atmosphere and retains many historic features, such as oak panelling, stone flagstone floors, mullioned windows, beamed ceilings and stone fireplaces.
The house has been completely renovated and offers a comfortable home with all the mod cons that a holiday maker would wish to have. Further information about Countersett Hall can be found online. Best rates direct.
The market town of Hawes is just a short drive away, as is Bainbridge and Askrigg. Guests will enjoy the stunning scenery, peace and quiet of this beautiful Dales location. We recommend standing in the garden on a clear night – the night sky is something to behold in this area of minimal light pollution! Rolling hills, quaint villages and traditional village pubs are all within easy reach. There is plenty of off-road parking. Shop, pub and restaurant 2 miles. Fishing, cycling and horse riding all available nearby, along with numerous public walkways. Paddle boarding and kayak hire and tuition available at Semerwater nearby.
The house sleeps from two up to seven. The rates given are flat rates, with no additional fees, so the rates are the same regardless of guest numbers. Beebole Cottage is a one bedroom cottage located opposite the house, which can be rented out separately, or jointly with the main house – this has a king size bed and sleeps two people, see my other listing. It has its own entrance and garden.
All towels and linen provided, along with tea, coffee, sugar, milk and biscuits, soap, foil, washing up liquid, olive oil, salt & pepper, dishwasher tablets, sponge and cloth and two tea towels. Complimentary basket of logs, plus kindling and firelighters. The house and cottage linen are both professionally cleaned to a hotel standard.
