Overlooking the quiet, unspoilt Howgill Mountains Fawcett Mill is situated only 2 miles from the M6 motorway and is hidden in its own tranquil valley, with a stream running from an adjacent waterfall through 7 acres of meadowland.
Built in 1794 as the mill owner's house it is furnished in comfortable country style, with oak beams and open hearths throughout. It is equipped to a very high standard with full gas central heating and fitted carpets.
Outside, as well as barbecue areas, there are extensive terraces and patios bordering the stream.
Fawcett Mill which sleeps 20 in total, is available with 3 double bedrooms, 4 twin bedrooms (1 with an additional double bunkbed) and a double futon and double settee bed in the lounge (+cots).
The location is ideal for hill walkers, with easy access to the Howgill mountains and fells. The Coast to Coast Walk passes through our local village of Orton where "The George" is a popular stopping off point, being mid-way between the Yorkshire Dales and the Lake District National Parks. The network of small country lanes and villages is popular with cyclists.
Fawcett Mill makes an idyllic gathering place for a large family or groups of friends. It is perfect for Christmas/New Year/Easter celebrations. Summer or Winter the environment and scenery is stunning.
