The nearby market towns of Hawes, Reeth and Kirkby Stephen have an excellent range of shops and facilities including schools, restaurants, cafes and pubs. DESCRIPTION Greenacres comprises a deceptively spacious Grade II listed stone built, semi-detached barn conversion located on the edge of the rural hamlet of Angram. The property is well-presented and has been redecorated throughout. The ground floor accommodation briefly comprises a large ‘L’ shaped living room with dining area. This room features a multi fuel stove set within a stone fireplace and four windows which enjoy the stunning views. The inner hall is used as a breakfast room with a door leading out onto the patio. The kitchen features a range of reclaimed timber freestanding units, a single electric Aga and space for a fridge freezer. Usefully there is a utility room where there is plumbing for a washing machine and the central heating boiler, and a separate cloakroom. To the first floor there are three double bedrooms each enjoying a lovely outlook. The main bedroom has an ensuite shower room with large fitted wardrobes and the others share a family bathroom. There is ample storage with each bedroom benefitting from eaves storage. Externally the property is complemented by a good-sized garden with lawn, established flower beds, a wildflower and wildlife area and a small pond which is all enclosed by a dry-stone walled boundary. The stunning views can be enjoyed from the garden and it is a peaceful space. To the front of the property there is parking for several vehicles and a stone-built store with electric. Overall the property would make an excellent family home, second home or holiday let within the Yorkshire Dales National Park.

  • THE FARMERS ARMS Walk No. 3 - Muker to Ivelet Circular
    THE FARMERS ARMS Walk No. 3 - Muker to Ivelet Circular Walk No. 3 – Muker to Ivelet Circular Summary A great circular walk to Ivelet via Oxnop, with spectacular views of Kisdon Hill, Oxnop Side and the villages of Muker and Gunnerside. Start: The Farmers Arms, Muker Facilities: Public Toilets at Muker Distance: 5 miles Refreshments: Muker Duration: 2 hours Difficulty: Medium – An undulating walk to Ivelet, followed by a ½ mile climb* along the road through Ivelet and past Gunnerside Lodge, returning to Muker via a stone track with spectacular views of Upper Swaledale and gradually descending down to Rampsholme footbridge and returning through the level flagged footpath through the meadows. * The climb is worth it but it can be avoided should you wish to choose the well signposted riverside footpath to Muker from Ivelet Bridge. Important Note: The first half of this walk can be very wet underfoot after heavy rainfall. Route 1) With the pub behind you turn left and follow the main road B6270 as it heads out of the village and over the bridge. Look to your right and you will see a footpath sign directing you up a track which initially runs parallel to the road, turn onto this track. 2) As you pass in between two stone barns, the track turns right and slightly downhill. You will see 2 wooden gates on your left. The second one has a footpath arrow on its crooked end (pictured below left). Follow this path. The path is quite well defined but stays reasonably close to the bottom field boundary and keeps the stone wall on your left.

It’s arguably the best song never to get to No.1. ‘Last Christmas’ was written by George Michael, then aged 21, in the summer of 1984.
