Gilsland is only a mile and a half from the A69, providing excellent road links to both Carlisle and Hexham / Newcastle. There are buses from nearby Greenhead and an array of simply beautiful countryside walks with a lot of historic features along the way, including Hadrian’s Wall.

The kitchen is fully fitted with a range of wall and base units, some integrated appliances and windows overlooking the village setting. There is a double bedroom to the front of the property and a spacious shower room with large walk-in shower, WC, hand basin unit and storage cupboard. A couple of small steps lead up into the main living room which is lovely and cosy, has a window to the side and a feature electric fire. There is a staircase accessing the second bedroom which is a well-proportioned double room with ample fitted storage.
