Description

Summary

This beautiful cottage, dating back to the early 1800’s, is located in the small village of Casterton near the historic town of Kirkby Lonsdale, on the former Estate of Casterton / Low Wood School which itself is steeped in history. A perfect location for exploring the Yorkshire Dales or the Lake District.

Garner Cottage has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Attention to detail has been paramount in order to provide a luxurious but homely experience.

Details

The first floor is of open plan design with exposed ceiling beams, comprising of a large and very modern fitted kitchen with NEFF appliances throughout, including a large integrated fridge freezer and dishwasher. The large lounge enjoys views over the rear garden and also over the front of the Cottage. Fully equipped with a large Smart TV with Netflix included, B4RN superfast Rural Broadband and WiFi (throughout the cottage), portable Bluetooth sound bar, board games, books and also a large dining table with 4 chairs.

The ground floor has the main entrance, two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The first bedroom has been fitted with a stylish bespoke double sized bed deck with integral LED lighting, a built in wardrobe and storage. The modern family bathroom is located beside this bedroom and is fitted with a bath and handheld shower, toilet and basin with a backlit and heated mirror.

The second bedroom is the larger of the two and is the Master Bedroom. Again this room is equipped with plenty of storage and also has an en suite bathroom with a rainfall shower, toilet and basin with a backlit and heated mirror.

The outside space is in abundance with a large rear garden and patio furniture.

Two lockable outbuildings are available for storage of bikes and muddy boots.

There is also a cottage side seating area for you to sit outside and enjoy the peace and quiet throughout the day. Ample private off road parking is located to the side of the property, large enough for 2 cars on a graveled area.
We live off site but are available 24/7 should you need anything during your stay at all.
The property dates back to the early 1800’s when Cowan Bridge School / The Clergy Daughters’ School relocated to the site more recently known as Casterton School. The building became accommodation for the pupils of Casterton School prior to a recent merger with Sedbergh School. Full renovation was completed in 2019 to its present immaculate standard.

In 1824, Charlotte Brontë and her sisters attended Cowan Bridge School, known as The Clergy Daughters' School.
In 1832, the school relocated to Casterton which offered a larger Estate. 
In 1921, this school merged with the neighboring Low Wood School, becoming known as Casterton Independent Boarding School. The old Low Wood School was renamed Brontë House in commemoration.

In the book Jane Eyre of 1847, Charlotte Brontë depicts her own time at Cowan Bridge by naming it Lowood. As mentioned, the Casterton School was formed in 1921 and the old Low Wood School was renamed Brontë House to commemorate the Brontë Sisters. Garner Cottage, Low Wood, formerly known as Garner House is located adjacent to Brontë House, both formed part of the original Estate for the Casterton Independent School.
